As summer approaches, more people are turning to liposuction
to lose weight quickly and achieve a balanced body shape.
In particular, as vacation season nears,
outfits like swimsuits and hot pants that highlight the legs
become more common, leading to a spike in thigh liposuction consultations.
At our clinic, patients concerned about lower body fat
often express a preference for thigh gaps and straight leg lines.
While regular workouts and diet help manage weight and health,
they can be limited in reshaping specific areas—
like creating a visible thigh gap or elongated leg contour.
That’s why we customize each procedure
based on the patient’s bone structure, muscle shape,
skin elasticity, and fat volume,
to deliver a well-balanced thigh liposuction result.
Today’s case features a patient with a fat-dominant lower body
who gained about 5kg in 2–3 months pre-surgery.
Her goal was to achieve a thigh gap,
which was difficult through dieting alone—
but was successfully achieved after surgery.
Let’s take a closer look at her before-and-after photos
to see the results of her thigh liposuction.
[Patient Information]
Age: Early 20s
Occupation: University student
Height: 158 cm
Weight: 64 kg
BMI: 25
Results may vary, even with similar body types.
The patient gained about 5kg over 2–3 months before surgery,
with fat accumulating mainly in the thighs.
Body type analysis revealed the following for this patient:
1.She had a fat-dominant lower body,
with most of the fat concentrated in the outer thighs (saddlebags).
This suggested that volume reduction and size slimming
could be effectively achieved through thigh liposuction.
2.However, in the inner thighs,
there was a noticeable loss of skin elasticity,
which could result in minor wrinkling after fat removal.
3.Her buttocks also showed signs of sagging,
due to the weight of accumulated fat pulling the area downward.
Based on this diagnosis,
we proposed the following thigh liposuction surgery plan:
1.We combined thigh liposuction with hip line liposuction
to reduce excess volume from both the thighs and buttocks,
creating a more balanced lower body silhouette.
2.For a slimmer leg line, we carefully designed the procedure—
especially for the inner thighs, where low skin elasticity
posed a risk of visible wrinkling if too much fat were removed.
Instead of focusing on large-volume suction,
we aimed to refine and smooth the leg contour
with a moderate liposuction approach.
Below are the comparison photos taken
before thigh liposuction and 1 month after surgery.
[Surgical Areas & Fat Volume]
Procedure areas: Thighs, hip line
Total fat removed: 4,900cc
This patient underwent thigh and hip line liposuction
to address lower body fat gain caused by recent weight increase.
Her goal was to achieve a thigh gap
and a straight, balanced leg silhouette.
One month after surgery,
the remaining thigh fat was strategically removed
to match her lower body proportions,
resulting in a noticeably slimmer leg line.
Before surgery, her heavy and sagging buttocks
caused her legs to appear shorter.
By reducing hip line volume,
her lower body gained better balance,
making her legs look longer overall.
In the inner thighs, reduced skin elasticity
suggested a longer recovery period would be needed
to achieve a smooth and even contour.
Even at the 1-month mark,
a visible thigh gap had already formed.
The combination of volume reduction and contour refinement
was clearly evident.
With consistent post-op care and compression garment use,
further swelling reduction is expected—
likely enhancing the thigh gap and achieving
a more defined slim leg line over time.
