How much sagging and laxity should I expect after thigh liposuction? (photos)

Lipo with bodytite RF/morpheus under local with iv sedation for complete comfort would make a huge improvement with very little worsening of your skin laxity. It can improve it a lot in many cases. Avoid general anesthesia at all costs if you want quality results.

Thanks so much for your inquire,

The amount of sagging and skin laxity after thigh liposuction varies from person to person, depending on several factors. The more fat that’s removed during thigh lipo, the more the skin has to tighten. If a significant amount of fat is taken out, there’s a higher chance that skin laxity will be noticeable.

adding skin tightening treatments is often recommended alongside or after thigh liposuction, especially if there’s a concern about loose skin

If you’re concerned about sagging, it’s a good idea to discuss skin-tightening treatments with your surgeon. Combining these with liposuction can help you achieve smoother, more contoured thighs with minimal sagging.

Sincerely,

From you photographs, it seems you have generally have poor skin tone and a lot of irregular contouring. You surely need to see a board certified plastic surgeon to evaluate you as a candidate for liposuction. Depending on your expectations, perhaps you might want to trade off increased laxity for a generally smaller thigh. It is extremely important to discuss these expectations with your plastic surgeon because skin laxity of the thighs cannot really be fixed.

Your skin will hang after liposuction. You would be better off with medial thigh lift and liposuction. This will give a better result.

Best Wishes,
