I gained 33 lbs with one pregnancy and 28 lbs with the other. I'm 30 years old, and feel as though my lower body looks 60! I know there is nothing permanent for stretch marks and cellulite removal. I had 6 Fraxel treatments on my legs and there was some improvement. I want to wear shorts again. I would like to get rid of the stretch marks on my hips and calves. Is this possible with a lower body lift or thigh lift? I understand I will have another scar, but its better than many. I have olive skin and always scar lighter than my skin tone.
Answer: Body Lift
If you have stretch marks on your hips and thighs, a lower body lift will offer you the best procedure by removing the excess, damaged skin. A thigh lift only removes thigh skin. Fraxel will probably make no or minimal change.

CONTACT NOW Answer: The Management Of Stretchmarks Your history suggests that you would be a candidate for a lower body lift. This procedure removes excess skin in the lower back, flanks and abdomen. It also tightens muscles and improves contour. Stretch marks are removed in the area of the skin resection. Unfortunately, this won't help you with your calf and thigh stretch marks.It's possible that stretching of the skin during this procedure will result in less noticeable stretch marks. The procedure also relocates residual stretch marks to a higher level where they may be less noticeable. Unfortunately, at this time there's no good way to manage stretch marks, short of removal.

Answer: Body Lift or Thigh Lift for Stretch Marks on Calves, Hips, and Thighs? Stretch marks are nothing more than scars in skin that has been stretched beyond its elastic limit. They are permanent, and nothing short of direct excision will be effective in eliminating them. With thigh lift and lower body lift, the areas planned for excision will allow removal of stretch marks only within those zones of skin excision. Lifting or tightening the remaining skin may make the stretch marks not excised look less noticeable. It is unlikely that the calf stretch marks can be reliably improved. Stretch marks in the lower abdomen, hips, and thighs, however, can be removed and/or improved. Best of luck!

Answer: Cellulaze Best for Cellulite Reduction Thank you for your question. I would suggest Cellulaze to reduce your cellulite. Cellulaze is the only minimally invasive laser procedure designed to attack the structure of cellulite beneath your skin. Cellulaze is backed by many years of clinical research. Studies have shown it increases the thickness of your skin by 25% and the elasticity of your skin by 29%—significant claims that haven't been made by any other treatments. Thicker and more elastic skin can help flatten and smooth the skin surface to improve the appearance of cellulite. In addition, 93% of patients surveyed were satisfied or very satisfied with their results at one year post their procedure, and all would recommend the Cellulaze cellulite laser treatment to a friend.

Answer: Thigh Lift or Body Lift For Stretch Marks ? Nothing completely erases stretch marks. Lasers and creams may make the color blend better, but the broken elastic fibers that cause stretch marks do not knit themselves back together. A body lift or thigh lift tighten the skin which helps to make the stretch marks less visible. The right operation for your circumstances depends on where you have loose skin and where you would prefer to conceal the surgical scars. You will need a personal consult to make an important decision such as this.
