Hello, I'm considering lipo on inner thighs, I've heard that that area doesn't do well with lipo and will also leave skin sagging. I'm 5'4" 123 lbs and I'm pretty active person. I have thick thighs and small hips, so my thighs rub together all the time and irritate my skin. I work out alot and my legs will look nice and defined but that area has always been a challenge for me. My doctor said he can do it but he doest think I should because I risk the skin sagging there.

Answer: Liposuction of the inner thighs Liposuction of the inner thighs can be performed but must be done carefully and conservatively to avoid saggy skin. The upper third of the inner thigh near the groin is more forgiving compared to the middle thigh. It is best to have a proper examination in the office to evaluate the amount of fat you have the overlying skin quality. You may be a good candidate for conservative liposuction or you may be a candidate for some non-invasive procedures such as coolsculpting.

Answer: Inner thigh lipo Lipo in areas of the inner thigh and the upper inner arm give the poorest results because of the loose skin and poor compressability. For example, one would expect a 50-60% improvement with liposuction on the lower abdomen and hips and later thighs, but only 20-30$ improvement on the upper inner thigh and upper inner arm.
