Horizontal thigh surgery, or thigh lift, is a plastic surgery procedure performed to improve the appearance and shape of the thighs. This type of surgery is commonly recommended for patients who have experienced significant weight loss and have excess skin and sagging in the upper thighs. It is also an option for those who simply wish to improve the appearance of their thighs.

The procedure involves making an incision in the upper thigh near the groin, and in some cases, in the back of the thigh. Excess skin and fat are removed, and the remaining skin is tightened for a firmer, more youthful appearance.
