I've heard that after having thigh liposuction, the skin will become lumpy and will wrinkle. Is this true?

It is very possible that thigh liposuction can result in lumpy and wrinkled skin. But if the procedure is completed by a careful and well trained surgeon, the chances are extremely low. Most surgeons will be careful to leave the proper amount of fatty tissue behind and to use a cross tunneling technique with multiple cannula sites. Liposuction can be done very safely and effectively. But it can also lead to very dissatisfying results when done poorly. Make certain that you choose a board certified plastic surgeon to complete the procedure for you.

the areas will be slightly swollen and bruised. If there are areas that are
lumpy this is just the healing process, and will eventually subside. Continue
