This is what I call a posterior thigh lift. It works very well to tighten and lift the posterior and lateral thighs. It can also be extended to the medial thigh. It will not "lift" anything above it, but rather will pull down on it.

Scott E. Kasden, MD answers: Lower body lift with incision under buttocks?
Is there anyone out there willing to do lower body lifts with an incision *under* the buttocks?
I tried it with an incision in the belt line, skin undermined, etc, but excess butt and thigh skin was not addressed. I know it's not an 'accepted' technique but I also know the lower the incision to the problem area the more effective the result, and I can't live like this anymore.
Already underwent lower body lift with belt-lipectomy scar line and thigh undermining -- no improvement to butt/thigh area, so why won't any surgeons try this other approach?
