In the past, liposuction was often seen
as a surgery for those requiring large-volume fat removal.
But today, with rising interest in healthy proportions
and a well-balanced silhouette,
more people are turning to liposuction
not just to lose weight,
but to achieve a perfected body line,
even if they’re not overweight.
For these body-line-focused cases,
surgical precision and customized planning
become even more important.
Since the human body is not flat,
the key lies in addressing fat pockets by area and angle,
to create a natural, proportional transformation.
Today’s featured patient came to us
concerned about inner and outer thigh fat,
seeking a smoother leg line
through thigh liposuction.
Her procedure was carefully designed
to match her specific needs
while maintaining overall body balance.
The goal was to achieve a longer-looking,
better-proportioned lower body
compared to before surgery.
[Patient Information]
Age: Mid-30s
Occupation: Office worker
Height: 167 cm
Weight: 59 kg
BMI: 21
Results may vary even with similar physical profiles.
The patient mentioned that her main concern
was the appearance of a shorter leg line,
due to partial fat accumulation in her lower body.
According to the patient’s body type evaluation,
she had a fat-storing lower body,
with enough removable fat to allow for
a visible transformation through thigh liposuction.
We expected a positive change toward the straight leg line
she was hoping to achieve.
We identified the key contouring zones
that could help refine her lower body:
the saddlebags (outer thighs),
inner thighs, chanel line, and hip line.
These areas were recommended for targeted liposuction.
The patient was also sensitive about scarring,
and strongly preferred minimal incisions.
Based on this, we proposed the following
customized thigh liposuction plan:
1.Perform liposuction on the outer and inner thighs,
chanel line, and hip line
to reduce unwanted fat
and achieve a balanced, elongated leg shape.
2.Since she had undergone another surgery in the past
at a different clinic,
we planned the hip line liposuction
using her existing incision scar,
minimizing the number of new scars
to address her concerns.
Below are the comparison photos
taken before and 3 months after
her thigh liposuction surgery.
[Surgical Areas and Fat Volume Removed]
Surgical areas: Outer thighs (saddlebags), inner thighs,
chanel line, and hip line
Fat volume removed: 2,300cc
The patient’s main goal was to achieve
a slim and straight leg contour
by removing excess fat from the outer thighs,
which had previously made her hips look wider
and her legs appear shorter.
She also had liposuction on the inner thighs
and chanel line to smooth out accumulated fat
and bring out a more delicate lower-body line.
To improve overall leg-to-hip balance,
we included the hip line in the plan
to enhance the transition between the thighs and buttocks,
resulting in a more proportionate silhouette.
In the comparison photos taken 3 months after surgery,
you can see that the bulges in both inner and outer thighs
were evenly reduced, creating a smooth and balanced shape.
Most noticeably, the saddlebag fat that protruded
from the outer thighs was eliminated,
visually lifting the starting point of the legs.
With the chanel line refined,
the previously broken silhouette
now flows seamlessly,
making her legs appear longer and more defined
than before surgery.
As seen in the selfies provided by the patient
taken over a 200-day recovery period,
even without undergoing high-volume liposuction,
targeted fat removal in specific areas
can lead to a slimmer leg shape
and visibly improved body proportions.
The patient expressed high satisfaction
with both the leg contour transformation
and the scar management results.
She also made consistent efforts
to maintain her results through personal care.
However, it’s important to note that
the scope and degree of change from this type of surgery
depend on individual factors—
such as skin elasticity, fat volume, and muscle composition.
Even patients with similar body types
may not be suited for the exact same procedure.
A thorough pre-surgery consultation
is essential to determine the right plan.
