Thighplasty with no LBL - anyone have this?
The most troublesome part of my weight loss has been cellulitis infections on my legs, which I never got before I lost 245 pounds.
I'm in the process of getting thighplasty with no LBL - believe it or not. most of my problems come from excess hanging skin on my thighs. I do have loose skin elsewhere, but I've never had infection problems anywhere but my legs. My doctor is confident the loose skin is the culprit, even though I take extraordinary measures to keep the skin clean, dry where it's supposed to be, and moisturized where it's supposed to be.
I'm a size 8-10 everywhere but my lower half. I wear size 12 to 14 jeans (relaxed fit) to accomodate the loose skin. I have a light compression garment that I wear just to keep the skin in place.
Anyone have leg issues because of loose skin?
