This is my honest review 3 months after thigh liposuction. I had the surgery at Gangnam Yalemi Hospital. My original goal was not super-thin legs, but a line that was firm while still avoiding my inner thighs touching. So my goal was not a completely skeleton-thin look, but a healthy, cleaned-up lower body. To start with the conclusion, the difference before and after is clearly visible even to the eye, so I’m quite satisfied. Jeans and fitted pants that used to feel uncomfortable can now be worn without worrying, and that is what I like most. These days, putting together outfits has become fun too. That said, it was not completely without downsides. Everyone’s body shape and skin condition are different, right? My skin elasticity was not great to begin with, so even before surgery the inner thighs were a little bumpy, and this part did not improve much after the procedure either. Still, the good thing is that it did not sag like wrinkles. And this is something I did not see much in reviews: pigmentation remained in the overall surgical area. I do not know if I was the only one or if others just do not talk about it, but I definitely had it. I’m only at 3 months, and since they said I need to watch the scar for at least 6 months to a year, I’m just waiting patiently. At first I worried a lot about whether I could go out with my legs exposed like this, but comparing 1 month and now at 3 months, I can clearly see that the skin tone is gradually coming back. Other than that, I do not think there are any major downsides. Compared with continuing to live with inner thigh fat that never went away no matter what I did, I’m much more satisfied now, even if I have to accept a bit of scarring, because I can live with the line I want and wear the clothes I want. This is a truly honest review, so if you have any questions, leave a comment!
