 Its usually done as part of the inner thigh lift.  How much gets removed depends on how far down you want the scar to go - shorter scar, less chance of getting it all.  Usually there is a small ammount left.  Talk to your surgeon about it during your consult.

 My extra knee skin will be removed with the inner thigh lift - of course I will have a scar going to below my knee. The ps had no other solution for me.

 Mine was removed wtih my inner thigh lift.  I do have a scar that runs down the inside of my thigh past my knee, that's the tradeoff.  However, I dont mind it, I'd rather have the scar than the saggy knees.  And I live in the cold Northeast, so if I'm showing my legs it means I'm wearing tights half the year, anyway.
