Just wondering if any of you had a thigh lift where extensive lipo was done.
My thighs are horrible, but I still have fat in them...I want the best results, so did the PS debulk?
Also, did anyone's legs previously touch and now they don't?
My whole life my legs have rubbed, but I think after a lift...they might not?
Thanks in advance!

I had heavy lipo with my thigh lift! In fact, that was the most painful of all procedures. I literally cried with the pain even 2 weeks post op. it made a big difference!
12/09 and 6/11, 9 skin removal procedures with Dr. Sauceda in Monterrey Mexico
Revised to the Sleeve after losing 271 lbs with the LapBand.
I had the extended TT fleur de leis, BL and arm revision on March 13 then on April 30th I had TT revsion on the anchor incision and had butt lift and bA I was supposed to have the thigh lift but my blood count dropped so I go to DR Tuesday and hope to do it soon, The butt lift was a snap. So far I think the TT and the BA was the most painful. I also had lipo of the thighs on 04/30. It did hurt butt debulked the thights quit a bit. DR tells me the thigh lift recovery is easy. I had the arms done in 2/2009 and recovery was easy. I was off work 2 weeks with each stage, I have a desk job, I am just anxious to get these thighs done. I am loving how clothes fit after the TT and butt lift. It is so fun to shop and will be better After these thighs go. :) I just hate having to wear larger pants in the waist so they can fit over my dang ole thighs. Just another month to go,....
I had two liters of fat lipoed out of my thighs and saddlebags. It was then injected into my tush. My thighs totally rubbed together all the way to the knees. Now they rub a little at the top, then don't touch again until my knees which are still a little swollen. I have a seroma on one knee so it's puffier.
I had ZERO pain from all of that extensive lipo. We are all different. You might be one that doesn't have any pain. I took lots of sublingual Arnica prior to my surgery for about a week, then continued to take it starting when I got into the recovery room. Some doctors don't want you taking Arnica. I didn't ask my surgeon. I have taken it for VSG and Gallbladder so decided to take it for plastics. Be safe and follow your doctor.
