I carry most of my weight in my legs. The part that bothers me the most is my inner thighs which I'd like to get smart lipo for. My question is if the inner-thighs are reduced, will my legs have a strange appearance if my calves stay the same size? I'm also wondering if reducing the fat in my inner thigh will reduce the pressure on the calves, thus perhaps slimming them slightly? I may just end up getting work done on my calves as well.
Answer: Liposuction of Inner Thighs Alone Hello and thank you for the great question.In my experience, individuals with all around heavy thighs benefit most from circumferential liposuction to achieve a smooth and natural appearance. However, without seeing your photos it's difficult to judge whether you'd be a candidate for inner thigh liposuction alone.Liposuction in any area can affect your over all proportions and so the nearby regions must be assessed carefully when planning treatments. If your calves are heavy, treating the thighs alone may give the calves a relatively heavier appearance. You inner knees must also be evaluated to achieve a smooth transition to the lower leg.It's best you consult with an experienced Plastic Surgeon who performs liposuction well and frequently in order to learn your best options, as maintaining balanced proportions are crucial to long term good results.Regards,Dr. Pedy GanchiVillage Plastic Surgery

Answer: Inner thigh lipo If the liposuction is done smoothly and carefully, and not overly aggressively, you should have a nice proportional thigh shape once the inner thigh area is treated. But this would not "reduce pressure" on the calf area.All the best,

Answer: Liposuction of one area generally does not create an aesthetic problem relative to an area untreated. I'm not sure there is a yes or no answer to your question. Most patients are pleased with the result although an area untreated might become more of a concern to them once a problem area has been eliminated.

Answer: Will my legs look funny if I just lipo my upper thighs? A well trained plastic surgeon will be able to blend in the areas that were treated with those that are not. The goal is to have a smooth transition from the upper to lower legs. Problems occur if too much fat is removed. That is why it is very important to find someone with experience. You should be looking for a board certified plastic surgeon. Unfortunately there are many doctors performing this procedure that do not have the proper qualifications. You should have the option of performing it either in the hospital or surgery center, not just the office. Alarms should be going off in your head if your only option is an office procedure. That means the surgeon may not be qualified or credentialed to perform this procedure in hospital. Make sure you go in for an in person consultation. Make sure you look at before and after photos. And make sure that you feel comfortable with the person you're talking to. This should NOT be decision based only on price. You will get what you pay for. liposuction is actually a very nuanced procedure and selecting the right person to do it will impact your final result.
