Reduce Loose Skin
Our skilled surgeon tightens and smooths the thighs to create more graceful movement and greater confidence in your appearance.
Loose or sagging skin on your inner or outer thighs can easily dim your confidence. Even with a healthy lifestyle, skin laxity may remain from weight loss, aging, or genetics. With a thigh lift surgery in South Barrington, Dr. Renee Burke gently reshapes your thighs for smoother contours, tailored to your natural frame.
The Thigh Lift Process

Consultation
Your experience begins with a personal consultation where Dr. Burke listens closely to your concerns before carefully examining your skin quality and thigh contours. Together, you discuss your goals and decide whether a thigh lift aligns with your vision. Your plan reflects both your desired aesthetic and overall well-being.

Procedure
While you’re under general anesthesia, Dr. Burke removes excess skin and reshapes the underlying tissue to restore a more youthful and refined contour in the inner thighs, outer thighs, or front of the thighs, depending on your needs. This tailored approach helps achieve balanced outcomes.

Recovery
Healing begins with proper rest, care, and support. For 2 weeks, you should avoid heavy lifting or intense activity. Also, refrain from driving while on pain medication. Mild swelling and tightness are normal as your body adjusts. Our team stays involved throughout your recovery to ensure your comfort and progress.
