Q. Although I have had surgery before (arm lift), I had very little pain or discomfort during recovery. I am now planning to have a bilateral thigh lift and while researching the procedure I have learnt this is a far more painful recovery process. Is this correct?
A. absolutely!!! The main problem with this operation is the time for recovery and potential wound healing problems Despite these I have many very happy patients following thigh lifting surgery. Please see www.paulebanwell.com for more information or email help@paulebanwell.com cheerio Paul Banwell 0845 2600 261

Q. I would like to find a surgeon who specialises in thigh lift procedure. It is of the utmost importance to me that I find someone who has performed this operation many times. Thank you.
A. Hi there. Good luck in your search. You should phone a few surgeons’ clinics and secretaries and ask them how many the surgeon has performed. I don’t think it’s a particularly common procedure in the UK, though

Q. Does the medial thigh lift procedure tighten the backs of the thighs as well as the sides?
A. Thank you very much for your enquiry, you are right that the mid of thigh lift does help tighten the back of the thighs slightly as well as the inner aspects.

Q. What is the best way to lose loose skin after a large weight loss especially around the thighs and under arms?
A. Hi there. Generally speaking the best way of removing excess skin around the thighs and arms after massive weight loss is with an arm reduction and a thigh reduction. These operations take place with me at the Glasgow Nuffield Hospital and I see you for consultations at my clinic in the city centre prior to that. The recovery takes a few weeks and you’re usually in hospital for a few days after the surgery. I hope this information helps and if you would like some more information then you’re welcome to come to my open evening at La Belle Forme on November 24th at 6pm where I can see you for a mini consultation
