For women with lower body obesity,
as summer approaches, many begin to
combine diet and exercise
to manage their body shape.
This is often due to inner thigh chafing,
where the thick inner thighs
rub against each other and
cause skin irritation or damage.
Even those within a normal weight range
may feel self-conscious about their body.
In such cases, thigh liposuction
can help reshape the legs,
visually improving body proportions
and addressing areas of concern.
The thigh area has a complex structure
with varying muscle mass and fat distribution.
Rather than simply reducing size,
the surgery should be tailored to
each patient’s individual proportions,
including skin elasticity,
muscle volume, and fat layers.
A surgeon’s detailed understanding
and refined aesthetic sense
are essential to achieving
natural and harmonious results
in thigh liposuction.
Today’s featured patient underwent
a personalized body design
through consultation to address
specific body concerns.
With a custom plan based on her shape,
she successfully overcame her complex
and achieved a more flattering leg contour
through thigh liposuction.
Let’s review the transformation
by comparing the before-and-after photos below.
[Patient Information]
Age: Early 30s
Occupation: Office worker
Height: 168 cm
Weight: 70 kg
BMI: 25
Even with a similar body type,
results from liposuction may vary.
This patient experienced stress
due to inner thigh chafing
caused by excess fat accumulation
in the thigh area,
especially while walking or standing.
According to her body shape analysis,
this patient showed the following characteristics:
1. She had a fat-dominant body type
with a high concentration of fat
in the thigh area.
2. Even after repeated dieting,
she continued to experience discomfort
from inner thigh fat,
which caused chafing
and irritation while moving.
3. Due to her X-shaped leg alignment,
we expected that even with
thigh liposuction to slim the inner thighs,
achieving a fully straight leg shape
would be difficult.
Based on these factors,
we proposed the following
thigh liposuction surgery plan:
1. We aimed to reduce the overall
thigh volume, which was mostly fat,
to create a visibly slimmer leg contour.
2. Given her knock-knee structure,
we planned to remove fat as thoroughly as possible
from problem areas,
focusing on refining the inner thighs
to improve the overall leg shape.
Below is the comparison photo
taken before surgery
and 5 months after thigh liposuction.

This patient had an X-shaped leg alignment,
which made it difficult to achieve a visible
thigh gap even after thigh liposuction.
However, our goal was to remove as much fat
as possible from the entire lower body
to create a slimmer and smoother leg contour.
As shown in the photo taken
5 months after surgery,
we aggressively targeted the inner thighs
and saddlebags, resulting in legs
that appear longer and more defined
than before the procedure.
Although a wide thigh gap could not be achieved
due to her natural knock-knees structure,
significant volume reduction throughout the thighs
helped create a more refined and balanced shape.
By removing bulk evenly from the thighs,
we were able to deliver a result
that aligned with her aesthetic goals—
a smoother, slimmer lower body line.
Through detailed body consultation,
we strive to provide results that match
each patient’s individual needs.
Still, it’s important to understand that
certain body types may have limitations
that make a “perfect” transformation
more difficult to achieve.
That’s why it’s crucial for patients
to clearly understand their own anatomy
and communicate their goals precisely
during the consultation process.
This is the true starting point
of successful liposuction—
one that aims to create the most ideal
body line possible within each individual’s frame.
