How to Prepare For Thigh Lift Surgery

By Gary Motykie, MD

Thigh Lift Surgery

A thigh lift is a major cosmetic surgery procedure that must be preceded by a dedicated preparation process for the finest results. Your plastic surgeon will guide you about the preparation during your initial consultation. As long as you follow their guidelines, you will be ready and confident to go ahead with your surgery and meet your goals in the best possible manner.

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides thigh lift surgery to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, and Los Angeles, and surrounding locations.

Thigh Lift Preparatory Steps

Preparing for Post-op Recovery

In consultation with your surgeon, make advance preparations for your post-surgical recovery. Fill your prescriptions for pain meds, antibiotics, and other drugs as required, and purchase essential medical supplies, such as gauze and bandages.

Keep a few ice packs in the freezer as you may need them in the first few days to get relief from the swelling. Stock a few ready to eat meals if necessary for the first week. Place all the items of daily use in a convenient location so that you don’t have to move, bend, or stretch too much for accessing them.

A Day Prior to the Surgery

If your surgeon has planned to perform your thigh lift under general anesthesia, do not eat or drink anything for 8 to 12 hours prior to your scheduled surgery time. Choose loose fitting clothes for your visit to the hospital, and avoid wearing any jewelry, makeup, contact lenses, or other accessories.

Rest well on the day before your surgery and get a full night’s sleep. Cosmetic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, and Los Angeles, and nearby areas for thigh lift surgery.
