Is it possible to have inner thigh debulking followed by excess skin removal several months later?

Asked By:jendela15 in Tampa, FL

Despite having gastric bypass surgery years ago (lost over 130), I still have abnormally large inner thighs along with loose skin. It looks as though I have 2 giant globs of fat on my inner thighs. Is it possible to have an inner thigh debulking and then have the loose skin removed several months later? I'd rather deal with loose skin for a few months while I heal as opposed to deal with the excess weight on my thighs. Would this be something that a doctor would consider doing?
