Thigh liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that reduces fat from the upper leg and buttocks to reduce their mass and appear more toned. Thigh liposuction surgery is most often indicated for patients who have fatty deposits on the thighs due to weigh loss surgery. Women and men with unsightly cellulite on their legs may also opt for a thigh lift with liposuction. In the US, the cost of this procedure may be as high as $10,000 depending on how much skin needs to be excised. In the UK, the cost may be £7,000. Plastic surgeons in Latin America and other regions can perform the operation for much less.

In Mexico and Panama, the price of thigh liposuction surgery is at most $4,000 or £2,700. Cosmetic surgeons in Latin America are skilled and experienced in body reshaping. Many plastic surgeons in Mexico and Panama have degrees from medical schools in the US and UK, and most doctors speak English fluently. Before the operation, the doctor will carefully plan where to make the incisions and how to remove the excess fat with as little cutting as possible. A thigh liposuction is performed while the patient is under general anesthesia, and the hospital stay is several days. Post-surgery, the patient will be closely monitored by doctors and nurses. The surgeon will advise the patient on how to move so that the legs can heal with minimal complications. After a thigh liposuction, it is advised that patients take one or two weeks off from work.
