I’m 4’11 and both with thick thighs and hips.. I hate my thighs rubbing and causing chafing. I’m 123lbs. I’m looking to thin my inner thighs and decrease my saddle bags some. I’m wondering which procedure would give me the best results with the least amount of downtime.
Answer: Saddle bags and inner thighs Thank you for your question. I would recommend BodyTite and Morpheus in conjunction with conservative liposuction. You have to be very careful in the inner thighs in particular as the risk of contour deformity and irregularity is high. Inner thighs touching is not abnormal and having the expecation that there will be a large gap b/w the thighs is not realistic (even if they have not touched in the past). The laxity of the tissue with normal loss of elasticity is the culprit. That's why the BodyTite and Morpheus together are so much more effective that liposuction alone. Emsculpt is a waste for this. Thighplasty is way overkill as there is not that much skin excess to warran that big a surgery and the resulting scar. Best of Luck!

Answer: Considering options From your photo you would be a candidate for liposuction of the inner thighs and saddlebag areas. J-Plasma could be incorporated to assist with skin retraction. It is important to keep in mind that the skin on the inner thighs is relatively thin and loose hanging skin can result, especially if liposuction is too aggressive. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Answer: Best Technology and Practice for Addressing Inner Thigh Skin Thigh liposuction, or better said, thigh sculpting has the lowest patient satisfaction of all body areas. That is why it’s important to go to an experienced surgeon that knows all of their options. You can address outer thigh and inner thigh bulges with liposuction and skin tightening devices, such as the bodytite and the renuvion. But if you’re too aggressive in these areas, you will end up with loose skin, and sometimes new Cellulite. If you’re trying to make your entire thigh thinner with liposuction you’ll definitely end up needing a full thigh lift because that will create quite a bit of skin laxity. In your case, I’d recommend moderate outer and inner thigh Lipo sculpting with the renuvion or bodytite though I would prefer the renuvion in those areas. You could then further thicken up and tighten the skin with sever solid microneedling RF treatments, such as the Morpheus8.While you can improve things greatly important to know that creating a thigh gap or preventing inner thigh rubbing has a lot more to do with the way your hip and thigh bone structure comes together than simply just the amount of fat on your thigh. With that being said, you should still have high expectations for a nice result if done by someone very experienced who also has purchased all of the latest technologies.
