Hi, Doc Jason!! It’s Melanie!! Your after care -Enjoy your results!! - has helped me EXPONENTIALLY!!! And I share it with EVERYONE that is going to have surgery!!! It has helped me through SO MANY things, and just THAT has been worth my journey with you!! Though there have been, in truth,
many after my own journey with you 😊😊
Hi Melanie! Thanks for watching! That is so awesome to hear and so happy you are doing well!
The two of you are really great at this! I’ve lost around 70 lbs and maintained my goal weight for 4 months now. No bariatrics, but I am on a GLP-1 and plan to stay on it for maintenance. I follow a few facebook thighplasty groups and some female patient have reported labia discomfort from the pulling. Will being less aggressive with pulling the inner thigh area decrease the risk of labia pulling?
Thank you for watching! Great question! Incision/scar placement and the internal anchoring of the underlying soft tissue is the best way to eliminate or minimize pulling of the labia. It's very common to have some sensation of pulling in the first few weeks after surgery even without any visible pulling due to inflammation and tightness of the surrounding areas. I would highly recommend discussing your concerns with your surgeon and specifically ask about deep placement.
I can't find your videos and I would like to gain some kind of understanding about inner thigh.
Which videos are you looking for?
The one that shows the procedure for inner thigh.
Here are links to our previous thigh lift episodes, all thigh lifts will address the inner thighs 😊

I m 2 weeks post op from a tigh plastie and chee is the recovery difficult, especially walking. Now up and about, but not looking forward to working full time next week. 6 weeks compression garment and 8 hours on my feet teaching next week will be harsh. Any tips for quicker recovery.
Hi Tana! Thanks for watching and congratulations on your recent surgery! We have several great episodes about recovery. A few things that we really like (please be sure to clear any/everything with your surgeon) are hyperbaric oxygen therapy, cryotherapy, and acupuncture. All three are great options for decreasing swelling and pain, increasing mobility, and supporting a fast recovery.
