Unhappy with your thighs? You need to reduce the number of fat cells themselves.
- Stubborn lower-body fat
- Thigh fat is relatively slow to come off. It's best to reduce the number of fat cells themselves.
Legs that get thicker the more you exercise
Bigger muscles can push fat outward, making legs look even sturdier.
The line only shows once the fat layer is cleared away.
Saddlebags that make legs look shorter
Saddlebags make the buttocks look lower and the legs look shorter.
Simply smoothing out unnecessary bulges refines the leg line and makes the legs look longer
But will simply reducing fat cells be enough to make you happy?
At DOY JUN Plastic Surgery, we create a one-on-one custom design for your body type to reveal your hidden lines.

How thigh liposuction is performed
01. Custom lower-body design
We consider everything from the crease under the buttocks to the knees to design legs that look long and slim.

02. Loosening the fat
Pure fat tissue is safely separated from the surrounding tissue (blood vessels and nerves) to reduce bruising and swelling and speed up recovery.

03. 360-degree liposuction
Fat is suctioned thoroughly in three dimensions, all 360 degrees. As much pure fat as possible is removed while the skin surface stays smooth.
04. A flawless line
Enjoy the long, straight, sleek legs you've always wanted, with no excess fat.
Key points of thigh liposuction
360-degree liposuction
The thigh is cylindrical, so fat is removed evenly from the front, back, inside, and outside, all 360 degrees, for a clear reduction and a smooth line
Including the hips and knees
Slim thighs alone aren't enough. The fat on the buttocks and above the knees has to be considered too for long, straight legs
Incisions that don't show
Liposuction is performed through minimal incisions along the panty line at the front and back of the thighs.
Precise liposuction
Our surgeons suction the fat while feeling the fat layer directly with their fingertips. This means less damage to blood vessels, less bruising and swelling, and a faster recovery
DOY JUN liposuction expertise: precise extraction of pure fat
- Real inch loss
- If the extracted material contains a high proportion of other impurities, the amount of fat actually removed is small. The more purely fat is extracted, the closer the result can come to the planned design line.
- Quick recovery
- Less damage to non-fat tissue (blood vessels and nerves) means a lower proportion of impurities. Less damage also means less bruising and swelling, so you can recover quickly.
- Safety
- Heavy blood loss can cause anemia and dizziness. Suctioning mainly pure fat reduces the strain on your body.
- Smooth body contours
- Suctioning only the fat layer helps prevent lumpiness and adhesions. The surgeon extracts the fat delicately by hand.
- High fat survival rate
- Grafted fat cells need a supply of blood and nutrients to survive. If impurities are present, the cells struggle to get nutrients and may soon disappear. Grafting pure fat means the same amount lasts longer.
