experiences with thigh lifts

I'm planning to get a thigh lift in the next few months; it's a dream of mine because it's a huge insecurity I've had since losing so much weight. But honestly, I'm really nervous about it. I've seen awful experiences with the pain in the first few days, but what worries me most is the open wounds that don't heal for up to two months. And for me, exercise is fundamental to my mental well-being. If you've had it done, were you able to start training again without any problems, or at least start walking without problem?

Thanks xx
