Thigh Liposuction

Thigh Liposuction is a specialized body contouring procedure designed to remove stubborn fat deposits from the inner and outer thighs, creating more proportionate and slimmer legs. This targeted approach helps eliminate areas of fat that often resist diet and exercise, resulting in smoother contours and improved body proportions.

The procedure can address various areas including the inner thighs, outer thighs (saddlebags), anterior thighs, and knee area. By precisely removing excess fat, thigh liposuction can help reduce thigh circumference, eliminate rubbing between the thighs, and create a more balanced lower body appearance.

At Neoderma Clinica, our experienced plastic surgeons use advanced liposuction techniques to ensure smooth, natural-looking results with minimal scarring. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, depending on the extent of fat removal needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Thigh liposuction specifically removes fat deposits through small incisions with minimal scarring, while a thigh lift removes excess skin and some fat through larger incisions. Liposuction is ideal for patients with good skin elasticity who primarily have fat concerns, while a thigh lift addresses significant skin laxity, often after major weight loss.

Thigh liposuction can treat multiple areas including the inner thighs (medial thighs), outer thighs (lateral thighs or "saddlebags"), anterior thighs (front), posterior thighs (back), and the area around the knees. The procedure can be customized to address your specific concerns and create balanced, natural-looking results.

Most patients can return to work within 5-7 days, depending on the physical demands of their job. You'll need to wear compression garments for 4-6 weeks and avoid strenuous exercise for about 4 weeks. Swelling and bruising typically subside within 2-4 weeks, with final results visible after 3-6 months as the tissues fully heal and the skin retracts.

Thigh liposuction primarily removes fat deposits and is not specifically designed to treat cellulite, which is caused by fibrous bands pulling on the skin. While some patients may notice improvement in the appearance of cellulite after liposuction due to fat reduction and skin retraction, those with significant cellulite concerns may benefit from additional treatments specifically targeting cellulite. Our surgeons can discuss complementary procedures during your consultation.
