What Type of Liposuction Do you Suggest For Minimal Loose Skin and Least Complications For Thighs?

I recently lost 35 lbs. and want to have lipo in my thighs (they've always been "full-sized" w/cellulite). I'm scared of a botched job or too much loose skin. What is the best procedure?

Tumescent Local anesthesia with the micro cannulas tends to be the most safe and effective Liposuction.

Tumescent liposuction under local anesthesia with the micro canulas tend to be the safest and give the best results. There is more chance of irregularities and poorer results when lipo is done with the larger canulas and under general anesthesia. When you are awake and comfortable, you can stand up and turn and be put in all the appropriate positions to see what needs to be fine tuned and get the smoothest results. Laser and ultrasound lipos can do ok but tend to be more gimmicky... more
