My scars for my thigh lift go almost completely around my thighs they do not go around the outside, I still have a small amount of loose skin on the inside part of the thigh toward my butt, that is extremely irritating on my left leg even while standing . i want to have just that part taken up not for aesthetic purposes but for relief from the pulling of the skin. i am very active now that i have lost a lot of weight but this is a hindrance and want to have it removed without having a full lift

Revision Thigh Lift

You may very well be a good candidate for revisionary thigh lifting surgery, based on the description you have provided.

This examination will be critical to evaluate your situation and the potential benefits as well potential risks/complications associated with further surgery. Best wishes.
