Will the skin around my hips,groin, thighs also improve after a tummy tuck?
Answer: Tummy tuck occasionally also tightens thigh, hip, and groin skin 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.

Answer: Will a Tummy Tuck help improve the skin around my hips & groin and smooth upper thigh dimples as well? The tummy tuck may not improve upper thigh dimples, but it does tend to improve the groin.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Tummy tuck effects. 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.

Answer: Will tummy tuck tighten skin in hip and groin area 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,

Answer: Will a Tummy Tuck help improve the skin around my hips & groin and smooth upper thigh dimples as well? 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. Robert Singer, MD FACS La Jolla, California
