Will inner thigh and knee lipo give an appearance of longer legs? (Photo)

September 18, 2016
Asked By:birthdaychicken in Bay Area, CA

I have very short legs relative to my body. I'm 5'1" (on a good day) and my inseam is 27.5" and the length from ground up to the top of my hip bone is 36". I am pear shape with muscular legs but tend to hold fat there as well. I am scheduled for a Mommy Makeover but have the option to include the inner thigh and knee lipo. I'd like to do the lipo if the result will be slimmer, longer looking legs.
