If I get liposuction on my outter thigh (saddlebags) what will it do to the appearance of my butt? (photo)

Hi Star3232,Thank you for your question and photograph.I recommend seeing a board certified surgeon and an in-person consultation to go over any questions you may have. It is difficult to assess from a single photograph, it is best to see all views.Outer thighs liposuction provides a slimmer shape and the thighs will look longer and leaner. Typically, the outer thighs are paired with the hips (upper posterior thigh). You will be able to discuss your concerns and your expectations during a consultation. Just remember to do your research and pick a surgeon who is well-trained and skilled. Best of luck with your procedure!

I think that your buttock region will look similar in volume and projection as long as no suctioning is performed in the buttock or below it. Performing liposuction in the saddlebag region will give the buttock a slimmer appearance laterally and bring the thigh / buttock region in better proportion. Good luck!

Getting rid of the wide outer saddle bags can only help the butt look better. It is definitely worth going through and is dasy for you as well.

Liposuction on your outer thighs should have no effect on your buttocks. I would suggest consulting with a board certified cosmetic dermatologist for further evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer

I think that liposuction of your thighs will only enhance the shape of your buttocks, but I would need to see you in person to give you a definitive answer.

Remember to seek a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for your consultation as outer thigh liposuction should not affect the appearance of your buttocks. Perhaps review the before and after section of my and other physician photos and you should see some examples of how it could look! Good Luck 

Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided
information as well.. This is the surgical
procedure that revolutionized cosmetic surgery becoming one of the most
performed cosmetic procedures. Subcutaneous tissue or fat is removed in order
to contour the body in a way that is harmonious and pleasing to the senses. It
can be performed in almost all regions of the body such as the neck, chin,
abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs, arms and ankles. Usually done through a small
incision in the skin through which a cannula connected to a vacuum is applied,
it can be performed alone or in combination with other procedures. After
liposuction your body is going to be really swollen for at least 2 to 4 months
after your surgery. It is important for you to wear your compression garment
for at least 6 months, the first 3 months 24/7 and then the last 3 months at
least 12 hours per day for your body get use to not having the faja for so many
time. When you remove it, your body can get swollen and also you can have pain.
Remember to also compress your body to prevent a seroma which is an
accumulation of liquid that has to be drained, it is hard to touch and also
really painful. Bruises are completely normal for almost 3 months from surgery,
that’s why is better for you to use a bruising cream and apply it all over your
body 3 times a day. To prevent bad circulation and swollen legs, use
compression socks. Brazilian butt lift can be performed with the same procedure
and for a month it will be swollen and it will drop a little bit without losing
it’s shape if you use your garment.. If you’re going to perform liposuction on
your inner, outer, anterior, lateral, postetior thighs, be careful and consult
with your surgeon what’s best for you, sometimes we have more extra skin than
fat, that can cause severe sagginess on our legs, which can be only be reversed
performing a thigh lift.

Thank you for your question. lateral thigh liposuction should not make any changes to your buttocks. Please see a board certified PS for evaluation and to discuss your concerns.

Liposuction on your outer thighs should have no effect on your buttocks. Moreover, the buttocks is rarely treated with liposuction, because it could sag.
