Recommendations to slim down/contour legs? (Photos)

June 22, 2025
Asked By:ctl828 in Houston, Texas

Context: 37 year old East Asian female, have lost weight previously (body recomp from size 12 to as low as size 6 - approximately 25-30 lbs), active lifestyle, weight lifts 3-4x weekly Even at my smallest (165 lbs, size 6) my legs and arms were always flabby despite my core not being big. Neither seemed very responsive to diet and lifestyle changes, so I lipo’ed my arms and now, I’m ready to do something about my bottom half. What areas would be recommended to streamline the appearance of my legs? I don’t even mind having thicker thighs, I just abhor the fat knees and the thick calves. If I just did knees, would that help the overall appearance? Thanks in advance.
