Thighs

The related lifestyle
The shape of thighs can be improved by certain sports and dieting. Help is also obtained by cosmetic products and certain specific machines. At Asklepion we offer excellent body cosmetics from a wide variety of Orlane and Decleor products and also many slimming cosmetic programmes.

Liposuction
In younger women, the thighs can be well reshaped by liposuction of the excessive fat. In Asklepion we manage this by a very gentle and considerate method, so called vibration liposuction.

The machine which performs it, called Vibrasat, „hammers out” fat cells where there is their accumulation, but at the same time protects surrounding tissues. This is impossible with the classical method. For this procedure the liposuction cannula is inserted into the thigh through small, maximum one centimetre, incisions under the buttocks, which helps to hide future small scars in the adjacent skin folds.

Plastic surgery
In older people, the skin is not so elastic that it would not shrink after liposuction and this procedure could generate folds of excessive skin or marked dimples on the skin. Here, the expertise of the plastic surgeon is required and surgery follows the liposuction or alternatively fat is removed during the procedure by the surgeon.
The procedure requires sedation and controlled sleep. After liposuction the clients have to stay in hospital and after surgery for 2–3 days. Compressive underwear should be used after the procedure for about 6–8 weeks. Patients should abstain from work for about 1–2 weeks.

Machines for body modelling
Excellent results with changing of the shape of thighs are also achieved with body instruments as Bodyter, Dermosonic and Aerosonic, which tone the body, shape and help slimming of specific areas. It combines heat and passive gymnastics arranged through an electric current. Dermosonic and Aerosonic use ultrasound in combination with a vacuum massage. All these machines manage as well as dedicated cosmetic programmes to reduce associated cellulite
