I lost 170 lbs after gastric bypass 8 years ago. I had a tummy tuck, breast and arm lift the following year but never got around to having my legs done. I have been very unhappy with my thighs ever since.....never wearing a swimsuit and rarely wearing shorts. I'm glad I decided to go to Dr Healy. I had the surgery 5 weeks ago. So far, everything is going well...healing nicely. Results aren't quite where I was hoping yet but there's still swelling. I am very impressed with my incisions....even after only 5 weeks. I can already tell that the scars will be very faint.

Total disappointment

After 9 months and a LOT of pain and money, I am still not planning on ever wearing a bathing suit or shorts. My pants fit the same. Legs are a bit smaller but still just as lumpy and disgusting as ever. Complete waste of time and money! Pics are before and after. I am so upset that I wasted so much money. When we get ready to go to the beach, I just want to cry. I had the surgery because we live in Hawaii and I wanted to feel comfortable wearing a swimsuit. Unfortunately, still wearing board shorts.

So sorry. I lost 120 lbs. (personal trainer/diet) and like you my legs were my last surgery. I had an extended Medial thigh lift with lipo. I too have the same issue, only I still have a lot of cellulite and excess skin. I looked into a PS that offers Skintyte, but he said given the severity he didn't feel I'd be pleased and have minimal improvement. He did refer to another PS and suggested Cellulaze. I've just not seen dramatic results in any pics with the process although it was suggested I would have good results. More money, little hope!
Good luck with your surgery!
