Hi, I had my pre op today and my ps said she was only going to remove 200 cc's from both inner thighs and she said my inner thighs would STILL be touching???? The purpose of me having this procedure done is to not still have my inner thighs touch & for me to have gap. So my question is will there be a significant difference at all??
Answer: Inner thigh Smartlipo Triplex may not produce gap
Your thighs are fairly full. Removing 200cc from each will thin them some but probably won't produce much gap. I do think you can benefit from the procedure but I would be concerned I couldn't meet your expectations if the whole purpose is for your thighs not to touch. It also depends on how far apart your feet are when you are measuring. Ask to see some photos of legs like yours.

Answer: Smart Lipo to Inner Thighs
Every plastic surgeon is going to be different with the amount he or she feels comfortable removing from the medial thighs. Although 200 cc is a safe amount in your case, your surgeon may be able to get more and may liposuction more. This will be better assessed during the surgery as the volume is removed and the surgeon can see the resulting changes in contour and skin character. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Answer: Inner thigh treatment with SmartLipo
It is difficult to answer this question without pictures and truly without an in person exam. Removing 200 cc's can be quite different from person to person. If you are concerned about what your plastic surgeon told you, make sure you are clear before going through with the procedure. Good luck!

Answer: Smartlipo to contour your thighs Smartlipo of the inner thigh will remove any unwanted fat deposits while also tightening the skin. You will start to see a contour in your body almost immediately. Give yourself time to heal before thinking this procedure won’t make a difference. Good luck!

Answer: Inner Thigh Liposuction Rarely Creates A Visible Gap
If your main purpose to have liposuction on your inner thighs is to not have them touch each other, then you should probably not have the procedure. That rarely occurs in any liposuction patient. The volume estimate of 200ccs from your inner thighs is significant in your case, and will produce a visible improvement, but is unlikely to create a gap between your inner thighs when your legs are together.
