Will a Tummy Tuck help improve the skin around my hips & groin and smooth upper thigh dimples as well?

An abdominoplasty ( tummy tuck) is a procedure which removes excess skin from the abdomen and tightens the underlying muscle layer which can become stretched following childbirth or fluctuations in weight.  The tummy tuck does not address problematic areas in the hip, groin and thigh area.  Liposuction of these areas can be combined with a tummy tuck in one procedure.Best of luck,

A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)  can remove excess abdominal skin and tighten the underlying muscle but will not improve the thigh skin. Whether the hip area is improved depends on the extent of the procedure and your individual anatomy.I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon
certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the
American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you can find in the Smart Beauty Guide that you trust and
are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in
person at the consultation.
