Evaluating the Best Inner Thigh Fat Removal Treatments in San Diego

Why is it so challenging to lose inner thigh fat? It is well known that you can lose weight through a combination of lifestyle changes, such as eating well and exercising. 

However, you have no control over where the fat reduction will happen once you lose the weight. You may be familiar with the problem if you are actively trying to get rid of stubborn pockets of fat, such as the inner thighs. 

Some people have excess fat in the abdominal area, while others are more likely to have excess fat on the thighs or buttocks. 

The same problem occurs with the arms and legs: a person may have thin arms or legs, but the excess weight may only be in the middle part of the body. Other people can quickly gain excess fat on their arms and legs. 

Just as we gain excess fat in certain places, we can lose it too. Since diet and exercise cannot eliminate fat deposits, liposuction may be considered the next-best option.

Treatment Options Designed to Reduce Inner Thigh Fat

Vaser Lipo  

One technology that is particularly adept at reducing fat in the thighs is Vaser Liposuction. This liposuction technique claims it can remove fat using less invasive methods and equipment.

Liposuction was a more invasive and aggressive procedure that caused bruising and extensive recovery. 

Options like Vaser Lipo are purported to be gentle, less invasive, safer, and come with a shorter recovery period.

Nonsurgical Techniques for Inner Thigh Fat Removal

Unlike VASER, which directly sucks fat cells from the inner thighs, several different nonsurgical options work by applying controlled energy (laser, cold temperatures, high temperatures, ultrasound, etc.) through the leg's skin. Over the next few weeks, these fat cells empty their contents but do not physically leave the body in large quantities. This means results are not often permanent and can quickly reverse if you gain weight. 

Nonsurgical options do not offer the ability to shape the legs like VASER Lipo or AirSculpt. When using nonsurgical options, you will not see results immediately. It can take several weeks to reduce even a small amount of fat. Also, it will take multiple treatments to achieve results.

SmartLipo for Fat Removal

SmartLipo is a surgical process that uses laser technology to melt fat and tighten the skin. Although SmartLipo is a minimally invasive procedure to reduce fat tissue in the thigh area, it does have its drawbacks. 

Patients can suffer severe laser burns if someone with the necessary experience does not perform the procedure. In addition, the laser does not provide the same shaping ability as other options like AirSculpt. Some patients want to use the material removed during liposuction for a natural fat grafting procedure. This is often not possible with SmartLipo.

The Titans of Fat Removal

What is the best treatment for inner thigh fat? The procedure that has redefined fat removal for the inner thighs is provided by AirSculpt, a next-generation cosmetic treatment that offers many benefits of both nonsurgical and fully invasive techniques with minimal drawbacks.
