About Knee Skin Concerns
Excess fat around the knees is most commonly the result of weight gain, where consumed calories outweigh those used through normal activity. In many cases, dietary and lifestyle adjustments can help. However, the knees and inner thighs naturally contain a higher density of insulin receptors than other parts of the body, which means fat can be slow to respond to diet and exercise alone. For dedicated information on non-surgical fat reduction across the whole body, see our body fat.
Hormonal changes during pregnancy, perimenopause and menopause can also alter how fat is stored, often leading to new or worsened fat deposits around the knee area. With age, the skin in this region also loses collagen and elastin, resulting in a loose, crepey or wrinkled appearance, even in patients who are otherwise lean.
At Dr Nyla Medispa, our clinics offer a range of non-surgical treatments designed to reduce localised fat, tighten loose skin and refine the contour of the knees and lower thighs, helping you feel confident wearing the clothing you want to wear. Loose, crepey skin on the knees often appears alongside sagging skin on the thighs and arms.
