For me, the recovery from the thigh lift was the hardest because I had some wound separation that took extra time to fully heal. That ended up being more mentally taxing than I had expected!

I would, since my excess skin was problematic for me. I would not have asked my surgeon to extend to my calves, but I'm very happy with the results.

Hi Gwen,
It's been a while since I've been on here - I hope you are doing well!
Please share your regrets regarding extending your incision down into your calves. Dr. Michaels is doing my extended thigh lift in early November, and I absolutely asked him to go below the knee. Please let me learn from your experience!

Dr Francisco Sauceda in Monterrey Mexico did mine . It leaves a lot of scarring ( no bikini bottoms with legs cut up to the waist a la the disco era lol) but in my case healed and faded fast . My legs which were kinda loose skinned n shaky came out BEAUTIFUL .
I also asked him to liposuck my knee area that also helped . It's not supposed to b a very lasting surgery but five years post op I'm still massively happy :)
