Is there a surgery to remove saggy skin on inner thigh?

Abdominoplasty – this is where the abdominal wall muscle is pulled together both horizontally and vertically to add strength, and the excess skin is removed and the area contoured using Liposuction and different techniques to get the most pleasing scar.

A panniculectomy is just where they remove the excess skin, but there is no muscle tightening or liposuction done for contouring

The cost is about $6 – 7,000 for private pay

Insurance will pay if you have documentation for 4-6 months of sores and rashes that do not respond to treatment, Back pain, and difficulty exercising

They recommend coming in for a consult after your weight has been stable for 6 months, and about 3 months before you are ready, as the planning process is important.

They do have some programs to help defray costs.

There is no age limit, but more importantly they want patients to be healthy.

For a thigh lift, it is a longer surgery, and there is a scar that runs down the inner leg to at least the knee and sometimes lower, depending on where the excess skin drapes.

This surgery is not usually covered by insurance

Cost for this surgery runs between $7 – 8,000
