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

A picture would be helpful. Loose, hanging tissue on the hips, thighs, and groin, can sometimes be improved with a properly placed tummy tuck incision. The result, including the amount of improvement and how long it lasts, will be different for each person. It depends on a lot of factors like the amount and location of fat, the amount of extra skin, and the elasticity/strength of the connective tissues and skin.  I would consult with a few surgeons and make sure you see photos to make sure your expectations are in line with the surgeons previous results.

For the hips adding liposuction at the time of the tummy tuck can help contour this area.  For the medial thighs, liposuction or some sort of excisoin can be done. 

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,

Abdomnoplasty (TummyTuck)-- is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin in the abdominal region. Your hips  and thighs will not be affected by this procedure since those are separate surgical procedures. Seek a Board Certified Pastic Surgeon for a complete and accurate evaluation.
