I'm considering getting lipo to my inner & outer thighs, my back fat/love handles & the back of my knees. My main concern is my thighs, will lipo help this or is their another procedure that is better? I have a big butt naturally just sick of my huge hips & thighs.
Answer: Inner Thigh Laxity Hello,Unfortunately, without an examination or at least photos, you can not expect an intelligent answer. Please visit a few ABPS certified/ASAPS member surgeons capable of performing not only liposuction, but all body contouring procedures; they will be most honest about the possibilities and limitations of liposuction. Best of luck!

Answer: Inner thigh liposuction The inner thighs are very delicate areas to treat with liposuction. The skin is usually thin, with less elasticity than skin in other areas. That means that the surgeon must be more conservative and cautious in these areas. For inner thigh liposuction to produce a noticeable and satisfactory improvement, the skin must be of fairly good quality and elasticity. If it's very stretched and sagging, the results will likely be poor with liposuction alone. A procedure to excise and tighten skin (thigh lift) would then be advised.

Answer: Is lipo effective for inner thighs, if I have sagging skin there? You raise a good point liposuction and sagging skin. Liposuction does well in patients who skin is elastic and can shrink after the fat is removed. As sagging skin is present before liposuction is performed, then liposuction will only make the sagging worse. In that situation a removal procedure is recommended, such as a thigh lift.

Answer: Inner Thigh Lipo -- Get VASER HI DEF for the most contouring and tightening I find that VASER hi def contouring combined with thermiRF is the best in this area. I suggest you see only an expert as there are a lot of problems that can occur if the procedure is done improperly. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Is lipo effective for inner thighs, if I have sagging skin there? Thank you for the good question. A good outcome with liposuction surgery does depend, to a great degree, on the quality of skin overlying the area of adipose tissue that is being treated. If you have "sagging skin" presently, then it is likely that you will not be a good candidate for liposuction surgery. Generally speaking, the inner thighs can be a problematic area when it comes to liposuction surgery; the skin in this area is relatively thin and potentially will not "bounce back" as well as other body parts will. In person evaluation with well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons will be your next best step. Best wishes.
