What is Arm and Leg Liposuction (Inner Thighs)?
It is a liposuction aimed at eliminating accumulated fat in the arms or inner thighs to improve the contour of the limbs and refine their shape.
It is ideal for those seeking a more proportionate, lighter, and stylized silhouette, especially after weight changes or due to genetics.
At COLSURGERIES, we perform this procedure in a safe and controlled manner, taking care of every detail for discreet, harmonious, and functional results.
How is it performed?
The intervention is performed in the operating room, under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, and has a duration of 1 to 2 hours, depending on the areas treated.
Evaluation and planning
The areas with excess fat are analyzed, and the intervention is planned according to the patient's needs.
Fat Extraction
Small incisions are made through which a cannula is introduced to aspirate the localized fat, slimming the contour of the arms and/or thighs.
Closure and postoperative care
The incisions are closed and compression garments are placed to assist in recovery and improve results.
At COLSURGERIES, we refine your limbs with safe techniques and harmonious results, improving your body proportion.
Arm and Leg Liposuction (Inner Thighs) – Recovery
Recovery from liposuction on the limbs is generally faster. Most patients can resume their daily activities between 3 and 5 days after the procedure. It is common to experience swelling and sensitivity in the treated areas, which progressively decrease.
The use of compression garments helps to improve skin adaptation and reduce swelling. The results are appreciated gradually, reaching their final shape between 2 and 3 months.
At COLSURGERIES, we provide the necessary support for a successful recovery and satisfactory aesthetic results.
