A posterior thigh and buttock lift is designed to remove sagging skin from the back of the thighs and the buttocks, most often after major weight loss. Dr. Leonard Grossman, a Brooklyn plastic surgeon with more than 30 years of experience, matches each patient’s skin, fat and shape to the procedures he performs: his drain-free inner thigh lift for true skin excess, less invasive liposuction, Renuvion tightening through tiny access points, or the fat-transfer Brazilian butt lift.
How Dr. Grossman approaches loose skin and lost shape on the back of the thighs and buttocks, using procedures he performs.
A posterior thigh lift removes loose skin from the back of the thigh through an incision near the buttock crease. Dr. Grossman evaluates your laxity and explains which of the procedures he performs (inner thigh lift, liposuction or Renuvion) fits it best.
A buttock lift is meant to raise and reshape sagging buttocks. Dr. Grossman’s route to a fuller, lifted buttock is the fat-transfer Brazilian butt lift, reshaping with your own fat placed above the muscle.
Renuvion helium-plasma tightening treats mild to moderate laxity of the buttocks and the inner, outer or circumferential thighs, often with liposuction, through tiny access points instead of the long incisions of a lift.
A posterior thigh and buttock lift aims to tighten and lift the back of the thighs and the buttocks. Dr. Leonard Grossman starts by separating the issues behind it: loose skin, excess fat and lost buttock volume. Because the mix differs from one body to the next, so does the plan. He treats inner-thigh skin excess with his drain-free thigh lift, stubborn fat with liposuction, mild to moderate laxity with Renuvion, and flat or deflated buttocks with your own fat in a Brazilian butt lift. For his inner thigh lift, the incision is placed to be as discreet as possible, aiming for minimal visible scarring and natural-looking, outstanding contours.

Dr. Grossman tells you which lower-body procedure your skin and fat actually need, including when a smaller one will do.
His inner thigh lift uses no drain tubes or compression garments and is often paired with liposuction.
Surgery takes place in his AAAHC-accredited Brooklyn center, with consultation and follow-up at the same address.
Buttock shape is rebuilt with your own fat, placed between the skin and muscle and never into the muscle.

A posterior thigh and buttock lift is an excisional operation that removes loose skin from the back of the thighs and the buttocks, usually through an incision along the buttock crease or around the lower body, and it is most often considered after major weight loss. Those incisions are long, so the scar is a real trade-off. Dr. Grossman’s own thigh lift focuses on the inner thigh, so he explains whether that lift, Renuvion tightening or fat-based buttock contouring suits your concern.
