Can I have liposuction on my thighs? (Photo)

Thank you for submitting your question and photo! Liposuction on the thighs can absolutely be an option for patients who struggle with stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise. The procedure works best for targeted contouring rather than overall weight loss.
For many patients, leg liposuction helps improve shape and proportion, giving a smoother and more defined contour. However, ideal candidates are typically at or near a stable weight, with good skin elasticity — this helps the skin retract well after fat removal. If there’s significant loose skin, a thigh lift or skin-tightening procedure may be recommended in combination for optimal results.
In your case, if you’re at a stable weight but still struggling with isolated fat deposits in your legs and have good skin elasticity, liposuction can be a safe and effective solution.
The best next step would be to schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon, who can assess your skin quality, fat distribution, and goals to determine whether you’re a good candidate and provide a personalized treatment plan and exact cost estimate.

Body contouring procedures have become increasingly popular and can help men and women recontour their body in adulthood. If you have stubborn areas of fatty accumulation that are more resistant to diet and exercise, you may be a candidate for body sculpting liposuction performed at Kare Plastic Surgery in Santa Monica. Liposuction remains one of the most popular procedures in cosmetic surgery and allows patients to slim and toned their waist line, back, arms, and legs using this minimally invasive and highly coveted procedure.

Among the most common areas to have liposuction performed is the waist line and stomach area. This makes liposuction an excellent alternative to a tummy tuck or mini tummy tuck. If you have had fluctuations in weight, you may benefit by recontouring the waistline and abdomen using liposuction. Patient with excessive skin in the lower abdomen from childbirth or from excessive weight loss may not respond well to liposuction because the extra skin will continue to hang. In these patients, and abdominal plasty procedure is preferred.

Thighs do great with liposuction when done by an expert using the micro canulas with morpheus and quantum for skin tightening and done under local so you can be stood up during the procedure to fine tune the results. Cost is roughly $10,000 for quality work and so worth it.

Yes, most people can safely have thigh liposuction as long as the skin in the area has good elasticity. Based on your photo, you appear to have localized fat deposits on the outer thighs, which often respond very well to liposuction.

The key considerations are skin quality and your goals. Liposuction removes fat but does not tighten skin, so if the skin is loose or has poor elasticity, combining the procedure with skin tightening may give better results. A physical exam is needed to confirm how much fat can safely be removed and whether your skin will “snap back” into place well after surgery.

Many patients specifically request liposuction on the inner thighs, which is known to be a very stubborn area, even with consistent diet and exercise. You're definitely not alone in feeling frustrated. These areas tend to hold onto fat despite a healthy lifestyle, which is why liposuction is such a popular solution. The best next step is to meet with one of our surgeons to confirm you're a good candidate and create a personalized plan for you.

Hi and thank you for your question. You could definitely benefit from inner thigh liposuction to minimize the fat in that area. This could be done under either general or local anesthesia. One of the benefits of local anesthesia is that it is less costly and has a shorter recovery period. Please consult with a Board-Certified plastic surgeon who is skilled in liposuction procedures. Good luck to you!
