Will a thigh lift fix the lumpiness on my legs after lipo? (photos)

Thank you for rearranging will a thigh lift fix the lumpiness on your legs after thigh liposuction. I believe the answer is “yes, a thigh lift will correct the lumpiness in your thighs left after thigh liposuction.  Upon examination of the picture you enclosed, you would need a crescent or horizontal medial or inner thigh lift. During the crescent medial thigh lift, an incision is placed in a medial or inner  groin and an elliptical or crescent area of upper inner thigh skin is removed. The inner thighs are thus reduced, lifted, the skin pulled tightly, and thus, the thigh lumpiness is removed. I believe the crescent thigh lift is truly your only option.   Further thigh liposuction would make your thigh lumpiness and waviness of the thigh skin actually WORSE, rather than better. With a crescent thigh lift, you should plan on a two to three weeks recovery. The crescent thigh lift takes me approximately three to four hours to perform under general anesthesia. I hope that I have answered your question regarding will a thigh lift fix the lumpiness on your legs after thigh liposuction.  I specialize in thigh lifts.  I hope that I have answered your questions regarding the thigh reduction.  If you have any more questions regarding the thigh lift, thigh reduction, vertical thigh lift, medial thigh lift, spiral thigh lift, crescent thigh lift, or thigh lipo, please contact my office.   Please seek an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon with significant experience performing thigh lifts. Do your research.  Make sure your chosen plastic surgeon has performed at least 100 thigh lifts.  Make sure they have the before and after pictures to prove it.  Carefully examine their before and after pictures and check their reviews on RealSelf.   Sincerely, Dr. Katzen. (“Verified” Plastic Surgeon, Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, Fellow of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, American College of Surgery, International College of Surgery, and American Board of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, and member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery, American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery and RealSelf Hall of 

The answer to this question depends upon your goals.  While the thigh lift is certainly effective in its removal of tissue and correcting issues of skin laxity and reducing size and circumference, the scar produced is often objectionable to many patients. The Bodytite technology can be used to avoid the longer scars associated with thigh lifts.  Bodytite can be used in conjunction with liposuction to tighten the tissues of the thighs by about 40%. Although Bodytite will never reproduce the excisional surgical results, optimal treatment by an expert in Bodytite can come pretty close. You would need to be evaluated in person by a board certified plastic surgeon who is an expert in both procedures.

While a thigh lift may not completely correct the contour irregularities that you have, it would help smooth the thighs and eliminate excess skin that is contributing to the irregularities. When you see a board certified plastic surgeon for your consultation, you will be able to get a better idea of how much skin can be excised from each thigh and what that may look like.
