Can I Get Attractive Lower Body with Surgery? What Would You Suggest? (photo)

I am 53, 123 pounds & 5" tall. 5 back surgeries prevent me from almost all exercises so with that said; What type of procedure(s) would it take to give me smooth, nice legs, butt, hips and get rid of the weird indentation on my back due to one of my back surgeries? I just want nice and not to be embarrassed if I wear a pair of shorts. Basically from below my breasts to my knees is what I am VERY embarrassed about. Suggestions and possible prices. Florida lady wants to wear a bathing suit!!!

LTA with Laser liposuction of your thighs

You are a very good candidate for a Lateral Tension Abdominoplasty. This is a specific type of a tummy tuck that pulls up the thigh to a certain extent. You can also undergo laser liposuction of your inner thighs at the same time. You will likely lose about 15 pounds after a procedure like this and then you can address anything in the back at a later time. No reason for you not to look great in a bikini.

Lower Body Lift

You look like you would be a good candidate for a tummy tuck and a thigh lift. I would suggest separating the procedure to two different times. Start with the abdominoplasty and then do the thigh lift. Good Luck.

Thigh buttock lift

Your posted photos show lax abdominal muscles, a muffin top appearance of the lower abdomen, cellulite and sagging skin of the thighs and a drooping buttock. These issues cannot be corrected by an abdominoplasty alone, a liposuction alone (no matter what type of liposuction procedure you use) or both procedures done together. The required procedure would be a thigh buttock lift with or without an abdominoplasty or liposuction component. I do the procedure for extra sagging skin but no longer... more

Lower body

Thank you for your question. It is a common concern. It is my opinion in situations like yours to do what we can for maximum improvement at lowest risk. For this reason, if you came to me for a consultation, I would incourage you toundergo liposuction of the abdomen and hips. Tummy tuck may or may not be desired at a later date. I would expect a significant improvement in your mid section. Good luck

Isn't over 50 just the pits?

Hi Florida. I feel your issues as an over-fifty myself. BUT - first of all, there is NO REASON for you not to wear a swimsuit. Life is too short not to enjoy a dip in the ocean, lake or pool or enjoy a day at the beach (as long as you wear your sunblock and avoid the mid day sun). You lower body looks like that of a fifty-something lady, okay? You look JUST FINE. That being said - Do your best to keep as active as you... more

Improvement of lower torso and legs

You are talking about a lot of issues and surgery here. If the back scar is unacceptable, then you can consider a scar revision. Unfortunately, the photograph doesn't show the width of the scar and the extent of the depression in the back so it's difficult to make a surgical recommendation. Liposuction to various areas may be a possibility, subject to your skin tone. As for the abdomen, there is a bulge so an examination would be necessary to assess whether... more
