Scott E. Kasden, MD answers: What are the pros and cons of a thigh or lower body lift ?

After liposuction, my thighs are just loose bags.

Unfortunately, the skin elasticity was not adequate to shrink down after fat removal.

Basically, you have some choices.  You can live with things the way they are or you may choose to have a lift.

The pros- skin and supporting tissues are lifted and tightened.

The cons- $, pain $ recovery, large scars, risks of surgery including all kinds of wound healing problems, drains, anesthesia.

If  done by an experienced plastic surgeon, your chances of having a safe and successful outcome are very good.
