Lipo on inner thighs, good or bad idea?

J.Marie1980
Hello, I'm considering lipo on inner thighs, I've heard that that area doesn't do well with lipo and will also leave skin sagging. I'm 5'4" 123 lbs and I'm pretty active person. I have thick thighs and small hips, so my thighs rub together all the time and irritate my skin. I work out alot and my legs will look nice and defined but that area has always been a challenge for me. My doctor said he can do it but he doest think I should because I risk the skin sagging there.
