“Thigh contouring is a must for those who want to look and feel better in shorts. Achieving sculpted, firmer thighs with smoother skin texture can be done through several methods, but choosing between Thigh lift and Liposuction should be based solely on your aesthetic goals!”
Achieving a contoured body profile that makes you feel and look beautiful and confident always requires some effort. Although diet and exercise are the best ways to achieve an ideal weight, sculpting the silhouette has never been easier, requiring an assessment with a board-certified plastic surgeon.
The thighs can be a more troublesome area for many people, as the flabby or fatty thighs not only indicate aging but also cause concern due to an unsightly thigh profile. Whether dealing with loose skin or excess fat deposits in the thighs, it is essential to determine which option is right or if a paired procedure is necessary, requiring a qualified plastic surgeon’s assessment.
At KAesthetics, Dr. Karishma Kagodu helps patients from Bengaluru, Chennai, Kochi, Hyderabad, and all over India, as well as foreign cities like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Jakarta, Medan, and so on, reach their body goals, setting thighplasty/ thigh lift and liposuction are the most sought-after contouring procedure across the globe.
When Thigh Liposuction Is the Better Option?
Thighs are the prime spot for fat pocket deposits like bellies and arms that are extremely resistant to respond through diet and exercise. Excess fat accumulation in the thighs makes the profile less appealing; however, liposuction is recommended to eliminate unwanted fat using suction-assisted lipo techniques, such as ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL)/VASER, power- assisted liposuction (PAL), and laser-assisted liposuction (LAL). The unwanted fat is eliminated from the thigh region, and the overall thigh profile is reshaped and recontoured. Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure; having good skin elasticity is crucial for achieving the desired body contours. Patients are encouraged to avoid setting unrealistic expectations about significant weight loss from liposuction. Additionally, if someone has poor skin elasticity and is dealing with sagging skin due to substantial weight loss or aging, a thigh lift may be a suitable option, according to Dr. Karishma Kagodu, a celebrity plastic surgeon based in Bangalore.
When a Thigh Lift is the Right Choice?
Thigh lift surgery, also known as thighplasty, is an ideal option for patients struggling with sagging or drooping skin on their thighs or those concerned about stretched skin. The saggy or droopy skin on the thighs cannot be corrected with liposuction; the surgical thigh lift is the only way to achieve a toned, sculpted, and firm thigh profile. The plastic surgeon trims the excess skin during a thigh lift surgery and drapes it into a slim, smooth thigh contour. Although a thigh lift procedure naturally reduces some amount of fat attached to the skin, the paired procedure of thigh liposuction and thigh lift is still recommended for those with both excess fat deposits and saggy skin concerns. So, in most cases, Dr. Karishma pairs liposuction with thigh lifts to help you achieve more comprehensive and aesthetically pleasing results.
Dr. Karishma offers a couple of different options for Thighplasty, including:
- Inner (Medial) thigh lift: The target areas for the inner thigh lift include the upper and inner portion of the thigh. The incision is made on the inside of the legs, and sufficient skin excision can be achieved with an incision in the groin crease only. The inner thigh lift procedure helps remove excess skin and fat, reshaping your inner thighs to give you a more contoured and firm appearance.
- Outer (Bilateral) Thigh lift: An outer thigh lift, also called a bilateral thigh lift, involves a larger incision and extensive scarring. The incision made in the outer thigh lift starts near the groin and wraps up around the patient’s hip. Dr. Karishma Kagodu has expertise in performing thigh lift surgery, meticulously placing the incisions to ensure that the scars can be hidden perfectly under swimsuits or most clothing.
Which Option Is Right for You?
Suppose your concern is only to remove fat from the thigh areas. In that case, liposuction is sufficient to achieve the desired contour goals and eliminate unwanted fat using cutting-edge technologies, such as VASER, LASER, and PAL. Patients often seek solutions to address excess, saggy skin, which can be a primary concern after significant weight loss or as a result of aging. This issue can affect the appearance of their thighs. In these cases, a thigh lift is a practical option to consider.
In certain cases, patients may opt for a paired procedure combining a thigh lift with thigh liposuction to achieve the desired aesthetic results.
