September 24, 2019
Asked By:LgGal in Los Gatos, CA

I gained and lost weight in menopause and despite being always being an avid athlete I now have excess skin in my inner thighs that is visible only when I'm Vertical and not flexing. . Can I expect any permanent lift in the thighs by virtue of the lower ab Skin being pulled up during my tummy tuck? My muscles are rock solid in my legs I just can't exercise skin away and not worth the scar for inner thigh lift.
