Sometimes, no matter how much we exercise or how well we eat, we are unable to lose stubborn fat deposits. Excess skin and fat in our inner thighs results in the dreaded “inner thigh bulge” so many women (and even men) abhor.
While exercise can improve muscle tone on your inner thighs and positively impact your appearance, many patients still struggle with excess fat and loose skin even after committing to a diet and exercise plan.
Dr. Hernandez meets many patients in San Antonio who are frustrated by their inner thigh bulge. Thankfully, we are living in a time of amazing technical accomplishments that empower women and men to transform their appearances and achieve their desired look without surgery.
These new, cutting-edge treatments are performed by Dr. Hernandez right in the Eterna Cosmetic Surgery office. Patients are thrilled with the results, without the risk and downtime associated with surgery. And perhaps most excitingly, the fat loss resulting from these procedures is permanent! Fat cells that are melted or removed are never replaced by the body, so even if your weight fluctuates after treatment, your thighs will remain flatter and smoother.
While your unique goals will be considered during your consultation with Dr. Hernandez, the following treatments are often recommended for common concerns:
Smooth Thigh Lift: With BodyTite, Morpheus8 & Liposuction Procedure
For patients who have a significant amount of excess fat and loose skin
Dr. Hernandez offers the nonsurgical Smooth Thigh Lift to patients who are seeking a dramatic transformation to address the inner thigh bulge. If you have a significant amount of excess fat and loose skin on your inner thighs, BodyTite and Morpheus8 combined with liposuction deliver transformative results.
During a Smooth Thigh Lift, Dr. Hernandez makes a small (4mm) incision on each thigh. The BodyTite procedure firms your skin and eliminates the fat layer just under the skin, resulting in a smooth, contoured look. Then, Dr. Hernandez performs liposuction to remove the melted fat and further refine your thighs.
Finally, Dr. Hernandez completes the Smooth Thigh Lift by treating your inner thighs with Morpheus8 (and Plasma, if desired). Morpheus8 treatment delivers radiofrequency energy to firm the skin and mold the remaining fat located just under the skin. This results in firmer, more elastic skin, reducing the appearance of stretch marks.
To enhance results, many patients opt for Plasma therapy, rich in stem cells and growth factors, to promote collagen and elastin production for youthful skin.
AccuTite for Inner Thigh Bulge
For patients with mild skin laxity and minimal excess fat
AccuTite is a non-surgical procedure that uses radiofrequency to contract the skin, stimulate collagen, contour the skin, and reduce unwanted fat through a small puncture on each thigh.
This treatment effectively melts fat under the skin to restore a smoother appearance without combining it with liposuction. Patients often choose AccuTite along with Morpheus8 to enhance skin firmness, with Plasma further boosting results. All treatments can be completed in a single session, producing impressive, non-invasive results.
Morpheus8: Skin Tightening Benefits for Thighs
Ideal for patients with mild loose skin and minimal excess fat on inner thighs
Morpheus8 tightens skin and improves its appearance through radiofrequency energy. This treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production, which dramatically improves skin elasticity.
Patients suffering from crepey skin and stretch marks particularly benefit from Morpheus8, as it thickens the skin, makes it less transparent, and improves elasticity.
The benefits of Morpheus8 are enhanced when combined with Plasma, allowing patients to reach their goals in fewer sessions. Most patients need three treatments, spaced every three months, with full results visible after the final session.
Liposuction Procedure for Inner Thighs
For patients with mild to severe excess fat and good skin elasticity
Liposuction is a powerful solution for removing excess fat in a single session. It is especially effective for younger patients or those with good skin elasticity.
Dr. Hernandez uses her expertise to contour your thighs, carefully leaving a thin layer of fat for a smooth, natural look.
CoolSculpting Procedure: Non-Invasive Fat Reduction for Inner Thighs
For patients with excess fat, good skin elasticity, and preference for non-invasive procedures
CoolSculpting is an innovative, non-surgical treatment that freezes and reduces up to 25% of excess fat cells in each session.
Many patients need at least two CoolSculpting treatment sessions to achieve their desired results. CoolSculpting is a favored option for non-invasive fat reduction, allowing patients to see visible improvements without downtime.
