Is there an age limit to getting a liposuction around the thighs even if a person is not overweight?
Nov 21, 2013

Dr. Michel Moutran Plastic Surgery
There is no age limit for liposuction. And overweight patients are rarely a good indication for liposuction. Liposuction is not a procedure to loose weight but is a procedure to improve the silhouette contours. So definitely patients with no overweight and localized fat deposits in the thighs will benefit from liposuction. The other important issue is the quality of the skin where the liposuction is done. The skin must be of good quality and toned in order to correctly retract after liposuction giving a nice shape and contour and leaving no irregularities.
