Understanding Thigh Liposuction at WIH Hospital

Thigh Liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at removing localized excess subcutaneous fat from various areas of the thighs to improve their proportion.

Who is a Candidate for Thigh Liposuction?

  • Localized Fat: Stubborn fat in specific areas of the inner or outer thighs that persists despite a healthy lifestyle.
  • Desire for Improved Thigh Proportion: Individuals seek slimmer, more shaped thighs that are in better balance with the rest of their body.
  • Good Skin Elasticity: The skin should have sufficient elasticity to retract smoothly over the newly reduced thigh shape.

Comprehensive Personalized Consultation

  • The personalized consultation with one of our expert surgeons will cover your specific concerns about your thighs and your desired improvements.
  • A detailed assessment of your thighs, including the distribution of fat, skin quality (elasticity, tone, presence of cellulite or sagging), and underlying muscle structure. The surgeon will evaluate which areas of the thigh (inner, outer, anterior, posterior) would benefit most from treatment.
  • Thigh Liposuction is often performed under general anesthesia.
