Is Butt Lift a Viable Procedure to Also Tighten Excess Skin from Back of Leg/top of Thighs?

A "True Butt Lift" will not lift your thighs beneath your buttocks.
No. I do not recommend a "True Buttocks Lift" to lift the posterior thigh. A True Buttocks Lift involves a scar across your low back, just above your buttocks to pull the skin of the buttocks up. This is often combined with a "Thigh Lift" if the scar extends around the waistline towards the front. This usually provides little to no lifting of the upper thigh beneath the buttocks. To lift this area, I usually perform what is known as a buttocks wedge excision. This...

Yes a well planned butt lift can lift the upper posterior thigh some. Do not expect major changes, but some improvement.

Butt lift to thighen skin on the back of the thighs
There are a number of different procedures which are categorized as "butt lift" surgery.

"Butt Lift" or Lower Body Lift - Most Appropriate for Tightening Skin
A “butt” lift or lower body lift is usually the most appropriate procedure for tightening excess skin at the back of the leg and top of the thighs. This procedure lifts the lateral and posterior thighs as much as it lifts the buttocks. Medial thigh lift procedures lift the inner thighs. This procedure is done with incisions along the groin creases, and extending to the crease between the buttocks and the back of the thigh. Excess skin folds just below this crease may be best...

Butt lift and thigh tightening
A number of different procedures can be characterized as a "butt lift". The most effective procedure to improve the areas of concern to you is also known as a trunk lift , which is the posterior aspect of a body lift. This involves an incision across the entire lower back/superior buttock junction. It will lift the buttocks and also the upper posterior and lateral thigh region to a degree. It will not improve the anterior and inner thigh regions which would require a...
