Thigh sagging can appear with age, after major weight loss, among other factors. In many cases, it comes with chafing in the area at the end of the day.

How is it done?
Surgery takes 2 to 3 hours. The wave-shaped scar is placed on the inner thigh, and liposuction is combined to improve contour and reduce volume. The skin is closed with surgical glue in all patients.
Recovery
Surgical glue is removed after 21 days. Shorts or leggings-style garments are mandatory for 2 to 3 months, and lymphatic drainage starts early.
