What Op Do I Need To Reduce My Knees?



Recommended Posts

Hi ,I need a bit of advice and am not up to date on surgery tech terms. I am more or less at my goal weight having lost 9 stone. I had a TT last year with amazing results!!!! The problem area I now have is my knees. when I am sat down I have beautiful slim legs but when I stand up it all seems to drop to my knees which look so large compared to the rest on my slim self. I can literally pull up my skin to the top of my legs. Short of attatching suspenders to the loose skin to hold it up (lol) I am at a loss as to

what to do. I am guessing there is surgery that can be done but do not know what this type of surgery is called to research it. If anyone could help or has had a similar problem please let me know. xxx

If the skin can be pulled up to the top of your legs you're probably looking at an inner thigh lift. Just my thoughts. Maybe call the ps that did your tt.

I would start out with inner thigh lift....I am 4 weeks post op from inner thigh lift and have amazing results...although my knees are still a bit large....usually inner thigh lift is done first and then if you still need work done, it would be thigh lift from knee to groin incision....
