Thigh deformities may involve the lateral and anterior thigh, and in this case may improve with a lower body lift, however, the most common issue is that of excess skin and fat on the medial (inside) aspect of the thighs and the time-proven way to deal with it is by performing a direct, vertical excision of skin and fat.

Case 22
