When it comes to liposuction, it is crucial to work with an experienced surgeon. For the thighs (inner and outer), I prefer traditional tumescent liposuction with small cannulas. Performing the procedure under conscious sedation allows the patient to stand up and assess the smoothness and symmetry of the thighs. Additionally, non-invasive body contouring options such as Liposonix may be worth considering, especially if your thighs appear to be thin in the photo.

Hi! The difference between various types of liposuction techniques is not significant. With a skilled doctor, even the simplest method can yield excellent results. However, in your case, laser lipolysis with liposuction would be the most suitable option. Nonetheless, I highly recommend consulting with a skilled doctor who performs numerous liposuction procedures each year for personalized advice and recommendations.

The type of liposuction method used is not as important as the skill of the surgeon. Find a well-qualified plastic surgeon who specializes in liposuction and has a track record of achieving results that you like.

A physical exam by a board-certified plastic surgeon is necessary to evaluate the thighs for liposuction. Conservative liposuction may be recommended if the patient already has a good shape.
