Thigh Liposuction To Reshape And Contour Your Legs

Thigh Liposuction To Reshape and Contour Your Legs

One of the most popular body areas to have liposuction performed today is undoubtedly the legs – but why is thigh liposuction and other leg liposuction procedures so in demand?

The answer lies in the different body shapes people have. You've probably heard the expressions ‘apple shaped' or pear shaped' in relation to the female figure.

That is because when women put on weight, depending on their genetics, they will have a tendency to either put the excess weight around their middle area (apple shaped) or the weight will settle lower down on their bottoms and thighs (pears).

In a nutshell, ‘apples' turn up at cosmetic practices seeking liposuction of the abdomen and sometimes back liposuction. Pears, on the other hand, are more prone to need thigh liposuction, and occasionally buttock liposuction, because this is where their bodies tend to go out of proportion, and where a little extra weight can be difficult to shift, no matter what exercise or diet regimen they follow.

Just imagine you've been living with thighs that are out of proportion with the rest of your body – the hunt for clothes can be completely maddening. Pants that fit around the upper leg will not fit around the waist, and trousers that might fit properly around the middle are destined to bunch and crease on your thighs. This presents an interesting problem – either you are consigned to stretchy sweat pants, or horror of horror, a wardrobe of unfashionable clothes with elastic waistbands.

To put an end to this annoying situation, every year thousands of women opt for thigh liposuction. Oftentimes outer thigh liposuction will suffice to bring the body back into proportion. Your cosmetic surgeon can advise you on whether you will need to add the inner thigh liposuction procedure for the best result for you. Usually if you have both inner and outer thigh liposuction done together, you will get a considerable cost reduction than if you had the procedures done separately.

Recovery time can be fairly short if your cosmetic surgeon opts for one of the more modern lipo technologies such as Vaser lipo or Smartlipo. You will need to wear a compression garment for a few weeks to aid your recovery, and ensure a smooth result.

Since your thigh liposuction will remove the offending fat cells permanently, going clothes shopping could become one of your more pleasurable activities, rather than the horror that it has been in the past.
