Hello, today I had thigh liposuction for the first time. My lower body has been a complex my whole life, so I have reached a severely underweight state through an obsessive diet, tried to lose as much as possible with cardio, and recently got into working out, so I had built up my anterior thigh and gluteal muscles. But unless I was extremely skinny, the slight protrusion of my inner thighs and saddlebags did not disappear, and even when extremely skinny, the area next to the knees remained. After confirming that... I decided the problem was residual fat cells and went ahead with it. When I was younger (adolescence to early 20s), I simply preferred bone-thin thighs and skinny legs, but recently I have opened my eyes to a healthy-looking body. But while trying to maintain that healthy look through strength training, building my shoulder muscles, abs, and gluteal muscles, and eating hearty meals after workouts with good carbs/protein/fat balance, I ended up hitting my highest weight ever: 162 cm and 52 kg. Actually, my obsession with weight has disappeared (in adolescence I was 160 cm and 42 kg, looked like a Fiddlesticks, my health got bad, so I gained weight), but my dream of having pretty thighs has not disappeared. When I dieted really severely, my chest, abdomen, and arms were honestly starvation-level. But when I thought, are my legs finally a bit thin now? my face was always hollow with dark circles, and when I took selfies, even before age 20, my face looked sunken, so I stretched the hollow areas in Photoshop. That introduction got long. First, my firm personal criteria were: 1. Even if less is removed, absolutely do not let the hips sag (as for removing fat, I am at my highest weight now, so if I keep exercising and control my diet, I can lose weight) 2. I absolutely hate lumpiness (I prepared a home radiofrequency device in advance) 3. Focus on line refinement and find a healthy look through exercise (I like my thigh muscles, but it feels like they cannot see the world because of the fat) 4. Because I was genetically born with prominent calf muscles, I do not want my thighs to be extremely skinny and my calves to stand out, and I want overall line refinement (lines are truly something you are born with....) (For reference, this is the hospital where I once had a consultation when I was 21 and liked the bone-thin look, and now, 6? 7? years later, I came again for another consultation and decided.) I liked that the hospital answered well even though I had been urgently asking all kinds of questions since the day before. Even when they said my elasticity was good, so there would likely be almost no buttock sagging, I still hesitated. Because even if the next 4-5 years are fine, skin loses elasticity with age haha (I guess it can be delayed if I keep up strength training + care consistently) The director also said okay to my requests of line refinement + please no side effects + I am okay even if I am not bone-thin, and said he would remove as much as possible within those limits, then we went into surgery. After surgery, I opened my eyes half-conscious, went to the pharmacy with my guardian, and only heard the doctor say he removed 2000 cc of pure fat. I just wanted to go home so badly, so I rode home in my guardian's car. I guess I had not fully woken up. I slept well on the way Before surgery (fasting) 162 cm 50.9 kg After surgery (ate poke) 162 cm 54.3 kg One-line review: It is still very tight and swollen, but I can see that the anterior thighs, saddlebags, inner thighs, and knee lines have been refined. Hoping for a good result, I plan to work hard on aftercare from now on! For reference, the crotch of my compression garment is sitting low... what should I do? ps. For those who have done this, do you have any tips for taking photos of the backs of the thighs? And should I pull the compression garment up as far as possible to the crotch?
