Sagging arms and thighs occur after weight loss or with age. In the case of severe sagging, to remove it, the resulting incision is made along the arm or thigh and is often accompanied by another incision where the arm or thigh meets the body. The weakest area in healing is where the two wounds meet, in addition to being in the armpit or pubic area, which may increase the chances of infection. Therefore, everything necessary must be done by both the doctor and the patient until healing is complete without problems. In many cases, liposuction is performed to facilitate the closure of the wound or to remove some of the accumulated fat remaining after weight loss. When the sagging is in the upper third of the thigh, we sometimes resort to removing this sagging with only an oblique incision in the upper thigh.
