I'm 32 years old, 5'3" and 125 lbs. Also, 3 months post op from a tummy tuck with PAL lipo of my flanks and doing great! I am eating right and exercising but I have some stubborn fat in my thighs. I'm considering having liposuction on my thighs within the next year, if I'm unable to tone them up more on my own. There are so many different kinds of liposuction, it's a bit overwhelming. My skin tone is okay but not great, a little flabby. What do you think is the best kind of lipo for my thighs?

Answer: Medial Thigh Liposuction
A physical exam will be necessary to properly evaluate the turgidity and elasticity of the areas of interest. Liposuction of the thighs in your case should be conservative as you already have a good shape. Find a board certified plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of liposuction procedures each year. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Answer: Laser NIL liposuction
Your tummy looks great, congrats. I would recommend looking into NIL laser liposuction. I have performed Lipo using all different techniques and I think NIL using small cannulas is the best way to go. The thighs require very careful technique with a significant attention given to detail. I think awake Lipo is also best, especially in this area. This is because your thighs can be seen and treated in your normal state. You can move around under the surgeon's guidance and allow for a better real time evaluation and reshaping.
