During your consultation your cosmetic surgeon will ask about your general medical history and discuss your goals for the procedure, including how much change you are seeking and how much scarring you consider acceptable.

  • As with any other surgery, the extent of the problem and amount of correction you would like will determine how much skin is removed and how extensive you can expect the scarring to be.
  • Post operative scars on the body are always more visible than those on the face. However scars in the groin area can be reasonably well hidden under an average bathing suit and removing excess skin does improve the appearance of the thigh.
