Botox is used to help relax muscles; it will not help to tighten sagging skin on the legs and buttocks.  You can consider BodyTite or J Plasma which uses RF technology to help tighten skin up to 40%.

Hello, thank you for your question @sevinc123, Botox has many uses but its functionality is to block the contraction of the muscles that form the expression lines that later become furrows. What happens with the skin of the body is that it becomes more lax and therefore needs another type of treatment such as Jplasma to reduce the flaccidity or a lifting depending on the area. . The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD FACS

Good day and thank you for your question. I would not recommend using botox to treat your saggy skin in your buttocks and thigh areas. It seems as though your issue is mainly with excess skin I would recommend a body lift in order to remove the excess skin. Good luck with the rest of your journey.

Botox will not fix the issue. You may benefit from a complex of procedures. First (cheap and easy) - start weight training with gradual increase of weights. It’s very important and will tone your muscles that will help to even the skin. Cardio training is not helpful. Second, combination of conservative cosmetic treatments may be beneficial (diluted Sculptra injections to stimulate collagen, tightening devices). And third, a revision lipo with tightening may be of use. Good luck!

Botox is FDA approved to relax facial muscles and in turn, soften the lines created from moving the face. Unfortunately it will not tighten skin on the body, but I recommend looking into nonsurgical skin tightening treatments for the body! You may be interested in CoolSculpting or JPlasma.
