Hello. I had a medial thigh lift. The scars are bothering me and I would like to get a tattoo. Is it possible? How long do I need to wait till I can get one? Thank you

From board-certified doctors and trusted medical professionals
I think that a minimum of four months after liposuction is adequate time before undergoing a thigh lift procedure. Make sure you are seeing a board-certified plastic surgeon.
If you are more than three months out from surgery, a revision may be the answer. Without seeing you in person, I could not comment on what would be appropriate. It is likely that the deeper tissues need to be anchored more securely to avoid this problem.
There are several methods to do a medial thigh lift.Ambulation post surgery is important, but will be very limited. Need help with daily life for a week or two.All this should have been discussed with you by the operating surgeon himself/herself, other wise find some one who can spend the time...
