Dents after inner thigh lipo - how can this be fixed? (Photos)

Question

Hello I’m 67 years old, had mid section and inner thigh lipo last year. I have terrible dents beside my knees, and dimpling on inner thighs. They look awful! What can be done? My Doctor is suggesting fat grafting.

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

Fat transfers would not be successful.  At 67, your skin is quite weak and you will need a thigh lift.  The incision will most likely need to be down the leg towards the knees.

Best Wishes,

Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Fat grafting may help somewhat with the contour.  Be sure to discuss what you can expect in terms of results.  The skin laxity will remain without an intervention such as a thigh lift.
