Thigh liposuction offers a targeted approach to sculpting and refining the contours of the upper legs to enhance your overall silhouette. Whether it’s smoothing the inner thighs to achieve a thigh gap or slimming down the outer thighs for a more proportional look, Dr. Hakimi’s expert techniques provide tailored results that perfectly complement your natural body shape.
Book NowInner thigh liposuction addresses bothersome fat that accumulates on the inner thighs, which can disrupt your lower body contours and cause issues like chafing or discomfort. This procedure can help tone your appearance and create a more defined gap between the thighs.
Outer thigh liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits from the hips and outer thighs, reducing the appearance of “saddlebags” to give your legs a slimmer, more contoured look. This procedure can help balance your overall body proportions and enhance your natural curves.
In addition to removing unwanted fat, Dr. Hakimi can utilize advanced techniques to transfer fat to other areas that may lack volume, such as the breasts, buttocks or hands. Radiofrequency skin tightening with BodyTite can also elevate your results by ensuring the skin conforms beautifully to your new contours, enhancing the youthful and toned appearance of your legs.
Learn MoreYour results will be immediately noticeable and improve over time as swelling decreases. After your procedure, your upper legs will look slimmer and more toned, creating a sculpted appearance that enhances your overall figure. For the best possible outcome, Dr. Hakimi recommends combining thigh liposuction with skin tightening techniques like BodyTite to eliminate sagging and improve elasticity, helping the skin adhere to your slimmer contours.
Dr. Hakimi ensures that your results are aesthetically pleasing and balanced, blending in seamlessly with your natural curves. With proper care and a stable weight, your results will be long-lasting, giving you renewed confidence in your appearance for years to come.
Thigh liposuction is performed at Dr. Hakimi’s Beverly Hills office and can be completed using general or local anesthesia, depending on your needs, preferences and treatment plan. No matter which type of anesthesia is used, the area will first be infused with a tumescent solution that contains saline, lidocaine and epinephrine to control pain and bleeding.
The procedure itself involves making small entry points in discreet locations around the thighs. Through these entry points, a cannula — a thin, hollow tube — is inserted and moved back and forth to dislodge the fat cells, which are then suctioned out of the body. Dr. Hakimi meticulously removes unwanted fat to optimize your results and minimize the risk of uneven contours.
Once the liposuction is complete, you’ll be free to return home. Before being discharged, you’ll receive aftercare instructions that outline how to care for the incision sites, signs of complications to watch for and details for your follow-up appointment. Dr. Hakimi’s goal is to ensure you have all the information needed for a smooth and successful recovery.
Recovery from thigh liposuction is typically swift, with many patients resuming normal activities within a couple of days. Walking is encouraged to enhance blood flow and facilitate quicker healing. You will be required to wear a compression garment for at least two weeks after your procedure to manage swelling and help the skin conform to your new, slimmer contours.
Liposuction is designed to remove excess fat from targeted areas of the body and does not directly address cellulite. Cellulite occurs due to fibrous bands that tether the skin to underlying muscles with fat trapped in between, creating a dimpled appearance on the skin’s surface. Treatments specifically designed to address cellulite often involve technologies that can break down these bands or stimulate collagen production to improve your skin’s texture and elasticity.
Both a thigh lift and thigh liposuction target the same area but serve two different purposes. Thigh liposuction is used to remove fat from the inner or outer thighs to improve the contours of the upper legs, while a thigh lift removes loose skin that occurs due to aging or weight loss.
While either procedure can be performed on its own, combining them provides the most comprehensive results. During your initial consultation, Dr. Hakimi can assess your needs and treatment goals to recommend the best procedure(s) for achieving your desired results.
