I had very, very ugly and unsightly thighs. There were visible lumps of fatty tissue with drapes of loose skin. I am not overweight but I could only wear pants or a long dress or skirt. Without surgery my life would continue to be less than fully lived.
I have researched the thigh lift and understand it is the most difficult procedure for both patient and surgeon. It is imperative you decide on a board certified specialist for this procedure or risk some very sad and disappointing results.
My surgeon, Dr. Scott Engel MD, is, in my humble opinion, the very best in his field. My legs are beautiful! You cannot imagine my delight going from practically deformed to looking 10 years younger with very tight, shapely legs.
Without a doubt you need to consult with Dr. Engel in Sarasota FL before deciding on your surgery specialist. You will be very pleased indeed!

I'd so love to see photos. I recently traveled from Phoenix to Ft Lauderdale for litter body lift and inner thigh surgery and am so disappointed with my results. Did you have the long, inner thigh incision or the crescent one? I'm happy for you!

I decided on the long incisions so that my result would be tight and long lasting. The incisions have already faded to pink on the right side and the left is on its way. The scar placement is absolutely perfect. I will post pictures soon.

Good! I'm looking forward to it. A side note- I consulted with four surgeons and none suggested the long incision in my case. Probably because I'm not post massive weight loss. I'm looking forward to following your recovery and am very happy for you!

Did you have lipo with the skin tightening of the thigh lift? Did the surgeon remove the fatty nodules? I'm wondering if they were lipomas, which is what I have on the front of my thighs. Would love to hear more. Wish you the best on your recovery.

Great to hear you got good results! Did you have the sagging skin due to weight loss?

How was your recovery? Was there much pain or downtime?

I absolutely love Dr. Engel. I could not have picked a better surgeon.
