Thigh lipo - how much fat could be harvested? (Photos)

Dear Energetic269672,

it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

One side has more fat than the other, but you still will not be able to donate a large volume. You want to avoid overly aggressive liposuction, especially in the inner things and banana roll areas.

Thank you for your question and photos. The thighs can be a good source for fat harvesting, especially when targeting areas like the inner and outer thighs. On average, 500–1000cc of fat (before purification) may be harvested from each thigh, depending on your individual anatomy and goals.
While the thighs can be more prone to contour irregularities than some areas (due to skin elasticity and movement), careful technique by an experienced surgeon can help minimize these risks. Inner thighs tend to require more finesse, while outer thighs and banana roll areas may allow for slightly more aggressive fat removal.
A consultation with a board-certified surgeon will give you a more accurate estimate of how much fat can be safely harvested and transferred.
