To create a beautiful lower body line,
consistent efforts such as stretching,
hip lift exercises, and massage
can help not only with dieting
but also with maintaining skin firmness,
and may even improve concerns like cellulite.
However, for those who already have
severely reduced skin elasticity,
hip sagging, or uneven thigh shape
due to weight gain,
it’s often difficult to fully restore the desired shape
through exercise alone.
That’s why many people choose liposuction,
a surgical method that reshapes the body
by considering the individual’s bone structure,
muscle development, fat volume,
and skin elasticity.
The patient we are introducing today
had a fat-dominant lower body,
and underwent both thigh liposuction
and hip line liposuction
to address her concerns.
As a result, her thigh size was reduced evenly,
achieving a more balanced and improved silhouette.
Let’s take a look at the before-and-after photos below
to see the outcome of her thigh liposuction surgery.
[Patient Information]
Age: Early 30s
Occupation: Office worker
Height: 159cm
Weight: 54kg
BMI: 21
Even with similar body specs,
results of liposuction may vary by individual.
This patient had a lower body obesity type,
and had continuously tried to slim down her thighs
through diet pills and regular exercise.
However, despite her weight loss efforts,
she still struggled with stubborn lower body fat,
which caused her considerable stress.
Based on her body shape diagnosis,
we identified the following features for this patient:
1.She had a fat-dominant body type,
with a high fat ratio throughout the thighs.
We anticipated a significant size reduction
through thigh liposuction.
2.There was also sufficient fat
in the hip line area,
so we recommended combining it
with thigh liposuction
for optimal lower body contouring.
3.Notably, her rectus femoris
and vastus lateralis muscles were well-developed
in the front thighs.
Excessive liposuction in this region
could emphasize the muscle lines,
so caution was required.
4.In addition, her skin elasticity was slightly reduced,
which meant that preoperative concerns like
inner thigh irregularities and
bilateral thigh asymmetry
might remain slightly visible after surgery.
We explained this to the patient in advance.
Based on this assessment,
we proposed the following thigh liposuction plan:
1.Perform thigh liposuction together with hip line liposuction
to reduce volume from the hips to the thighs,
creating a slimmer and smoother lower body line.
2.For the front thighs,
we explained that aggressive suction
could highlight the muscles,
so we would focus on line-focused contouring
rather than full-volume removal.
3.For the inner and outer thighs,
to avoid emphasizing irregularities or asymmetry,
we planned to leave a small amount of fat
to preserve balance and smoothness.
Below is a comparison photo
taken before and one month after
her thigh liposuction surgery.
[Surgery Area & Fat Volume]
Surgery area: thighs, hip line
Fat volume removed: 5,300cc
The patient underwent thigh liposuction
and hip line liposuction
in hopes of resolving lower body obesity
and achieving a smoother, slimmer thigh shape.
As seen in the progress photo taken one month later,
there is a noticeable reduction in overall volume,
resulting in a visibly slimmer lower body silhouette.
In particular, her heavy and sagging buttocks
showed improvement with a more lifted, firmer appearance,
and the irregularities in the inner thighs
as well as the asymmetry between both thighs
were partially corrected.
Through this liposuction procedure,
the patient was able to overcome her concerns
related to lower body disproportion.
In the selfie photo provided by the patient
two months after surgery,
you can clearly see a transformation
from muscular, prominent thighs
to a slimmer, straighter leg shape
with a noticeable thigh gap.
The outer and inner thigh lines
also appear smoother and more refined,
giving the legs a longer-looking silhouette
compared to before the procedure.
Because the patient had reduced skin elasticity,
we explained in advance that
the empty space left after liposuction
could potentially lead to sagging or wrinkling.
Therefore, we recommended wearing
compression garments for over three months
and maintaining consistent aftercare.
We expect that by the time
her final results settle in—around 5 to 6 months post-op—
her legs will appear even more slim and sculpted.
