Anterior Thighs Liposuction

Optimally smooth results on the anterior thighs are more important than maximum volume reduction. Excess liposuction of the anterior thighs can easily cause hideous skin irregularities. It is associated with a relatively high incidence of patient dissatisfaction to remove more than 60% of the subcutaneous fat from the anterior thigh. Unfortunately, the anterior thighs or the front of the thighs are a very common problem area for women. Although some patients may feel that they only need liposuction at the top of the thigh, Dr. Ashutosh Shah prefers liposuction simultaneously in all thigh areas so that it can be accurately balanced.

Dangers of Circumferential Thigh Liposuction

During one day liposuction of the whole thigh is not recommended. Circumferential liposuction by one surgical procedure often leads to a prolonged swelling of the feet and legs, with considerably more discomfort and a delayed return to normal functions. Liposuction of the whole thigh circumference may predispose the patient to deep thrombosis of the leg and blood clots in the lung. Circumferential thigh liposuction is safer when carried out as a serial procedure.
