Must the Lebesgue measure of a $\rho$ - neighbourhood of an $(n-2)$ - dimensional set be at least $c\rho^2$?

The Lebesgue measure of a $\rho$-neighbourhood of a point in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is of course equal to $c\rho^2$. Similar such considerations in higher dimensions lead me to the following question: Given ...
