Lower Body Lift with Incision Under Buttocks?

Ekz
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?
