Flabby thighs are a common aesthetic concern among women. While addressing excess fat typically involves a balanced diet along with exercise, this most often doesn’t work when it comes the thighs. Laser liposuction on thighs is specifically designed to address the problem. Performed using the minimally-invasive Smartlipo Triplex workstation, this a cosmetic surgical procedure provides superior results, with minimal surgical trauma and short downtime.
Smartlipo vs. Traditional Liposuction
Traditional liposuction is performed using general anesthesia and involves the insertion of a cannula to manually break up and suction out fat deposits. As this technique is more invasive, patients experience more significant swelling and bruising. Recovery can take several weeks.
On the other hand, Smartlipo is minimally invasive, resulting in minimal scarring and reduced trauma to surrounding tissues. Recovery times is shorter, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few days.
What Smartlipo Inner Thigh Liposuction Involves
The SmartLipo Triplex workstation uses laser-assisted technology to liquefy fat cells before removal. It features state-of-the-art technology that offers both fat reduction and excellent skin tightening effects.
After marking the site and administering local anesthesia, the surgeon will make a small incision to insert the tiny laser-enabled cannula of the Smartlipo device. Laser energy is delivered to target and liquefy the unwanted, stubborn fat so that it can be easily suctioned off. The laser energy also stimulates collagen production, promoting skin tightening in the treated area.
The intelligent delivery systems of the workstation prevent overheating and minimize the risk of injury or trauma to the skin. Some surgeons leave a small amount of fat beneath the skin to prevent wrinkling and contour deformities. For optimal outcomes, your surgeon may recommend both outer and inner thigh liposuction.
Benefits of Smartlipo for Thighs
- Performed under local anesthesia
- Less treatment time and downtime
- Minimal pain and discomfort
- Safe, smooth and quick recovery
- Improved contouring with no irregularities
Both Smartlipo and traditional lipo offer thigh fat removal. However, they differ in technique, recovery time, and suitability based on individual goals. The best candidates for thigh lipo with Smartlipo are close to their ideal body weight and have localized fat deposits and mild to moderate skin laxity. The skin-tightening effect of the laser makes it beneficial for those concerned about skin sagging post-procedure. For patients seeking to remove larger volumes of fat or those requiring more extensive body contouring, traditional lipo may be recommended.
Consult an Expert Liposuction Surgeon
So if you are considering thigh fat reduction, schedule a consultation with a qualified and experienced liposuction surgeon. The skin in the thigh area is comparatively delicate and comes with potential for issues such as contour irregularities and deformities. An experienced plastic surgeon with a good track record in Smartlipo treatment, patients can expect efficient fat removal and reshaping without any irregularities.
