I'm interested in a thigh lift procedure . I have some excess skin that won't go away with exercise. I did lose 60 lbs awhile back. But I wanted to know if it helps with skin starting to sag around my knees. I'm also 47

Answer: Thigh Lift Congratulations on your weight loss! The thigh is often addressed as two parts, the inner thigh and the outer thigh. The outer thigh is often improved with a lower body lift and the inner thigh is improved with a vertical thigh lift. Depending on where the laxity is around the knee you may need some combination of procedures. Make sure you see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who specializes in body contouring after weight loss! Good luck!

Answer: Most noticeable improvements visible in the thighs Thigh lifting surgery is designed to eliminate excess skin and soft tissue of the thighs. Unfortunately, the tissues just above the knees are least affected (least improved) by a thigh lift. However, you may still derive significant benefits from the procedure, especially in the upper and inner thighs. Consultation with a board certified Plastic Surgeon will help you decide whether your expectations from the surgery can be met with a thigh lift.
