The causes of depressions or dents of the thighs is the most important factor in determining what the appropriate treatment would be. Loose skin can be treated with a body lift and/or thigh lift. Depressions due to trauma, steroids or liposuction can be treated with scar release and fat transfer.

The cause of the depressed area on the thigh is important for timing of the correction and what method to use. In general depressed areas from scars are treated by releasing the scar and filling with fat.

Best doctor is a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in fat transfer.

Treatment usually involves fat removal from the surrounding area plus fat transfer to the depression. Release of the scar tissue or skin tightening might be added in some cases, too. Your plastic surgeon really needs to examine you for the best recommendation.
