No matter how many squats and lunges you do, some areas of fat can’t be eliminated with exercise. Thigh fat is one of those stubborn areas. Achieving your ideal body can involve losing fat in the right places without affecting the weight in the surrounding areas. This is where thigh liposuction can provide a quick fix.
Thigh Liposuction uses a suctioning system to remove fat pockets from precise and targeted areas such as the inner, outer, or back of the thighs. Patients can also have fat removed throughout their thighs depending on individual preferences.

Treatment Steps
Thigh liposuction is considered a minimally invasive treatment that takes between 1 to 1.5 hours to complete. It requires minimal incisions and a short recovery period. Here are the main steps a typical thigh liposuction in Rawalpindi/Islamabad encompasses:
- Your cosmetic surgeon assesses the current situation of your thighs and learns more about your desired outcomes. This helps them determine the exact volume of fat to remove and the areas to target.
- On the day of your session, general or local anesthesia is administered to minimize any pain and sensation.
- Tiny incisions on the problem areas are created through which the fat pockets are to be accessed.
- A fine cannula attached to a medical vacuum is then inserted through the incisions. This is moved in a to and from motion while pinching the fat.
- The motion of the cannula results in fat detachment, which is then suctioned out.
- The same process is repeated for all the areas of excess fat, and the incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures.
