Dear monycee50,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Generally speaking, if your problem is fat then liposuction would be the solution. If you have loose skin, then you might need thigh lift. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

The inner thighs are a common area of concern that is addressed with liposuction.  It is important to discuss the pros and cons of liposuction in this area because if too much fat is removed, skin laxity can result.  You may want to consider adding J Plasma to help tighten skin as much as possible.  I've included a video that I hope you find helpful.

Liposuction under local with the addition of body tite and morpheus can fix this easily!  It looks so natural and awesome!

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. A combination of liposuction and renuvion should address your concerns and treat the problem.

Liposuction with minimally invasive skin tightening like Renuvion would work well for you and have small incision. Otherwise, the thigh tuck is an option.
