A medial thigh lift performed in the longitudinal method will correct your deformities. This can be performed with minimal complications

Thank you for your question regarding whether your thighs can be fixed after losing 100 pounds. Congratulations on your weight loss. You will now probably live longer. It would be best if you focused on your weight loss and the significant health benefits you have achieved from it. Regarding your thighs, I would suggest a thigh lift, thigh reduction, or thigh plasty. During this procedure, thigh liposuction is combined with skin removalskin. You may even wanter 360-leg liposuction, which means liposuction on the front, inner, and outer thighs. Once thigh liposuction is performed, you may consider returning 6-8 months later for a final thigh plasty. If the skin around your knees bothers you, I suggest an incision from the groin to the knee. This incision removes a sizeable elliptical area of skin and fat between the thighs. IF the inner knee does not necessarily bother you and it is only the upper thigh, then I suggest an incision would be made from the groin down to where the thighs stop touching; in your case, this would be the middle of the inner thigh. This would be a modified or limited T-incision thigh plasty. Thigh plastics take approximately 3-4 hours to perform and are performed under general anesthesia. You will need to wear your garment for about 6-8 weeks after your thigh plasty and remain for approximately 2-3 weeks. Thank you for your question regarding whether your thighs can be fixed after losing 100 pounds.

It's not unusual for massive weight loss patients to develop loose, saggy thigh skin. This excess skin can cause a multitude of functional and aesthetic problems. For this reason, it's not unusual for patients to request surgical correction of this problem.A variety of surgical treatments are available to treat this condition. These procedures are tailored to meet the patient's aesthetic goals and address their anatomic findings.Your pictures demonstrate excess skin in both the transverse and vertical directions. Correction of this deformity will require a medial thigh lift. This procedure will require a groin incision which is extended along the inner thigh toward the knees. The procedure removes excess skin in multiple dimensions and significantly improves leg contour. It's associated with excellent clinical results and high levels of patient satisfaction.If you're considering a medial thigh lift, it's important to consult a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this area. This surgeon should be able to formulate a treatment plan that addresses your anatomic findings and achieves your aesthetic goals.
