What is leg liposculpture?
Leg liposculpture is a body contouring procedure designed to remove excess fat and sculpt the legs, enhancing the overall shape and contour of the lower body. It specifically targets stubborn fat deposits in areas like the inner thighs to improve body shape.
What benefits does leg liposuction surgery offer?
There are a number of benefits of having calf and thigh liposuction. It’s the least invasive way to remove stubborn pockets of fat that won’t shift, even with a healthy diet and exercise. It requires a short downtime and only causes minimal bruising due to the small incision site. The numerous benefits include:
- Fat cells are treated with state-of-the-art ultrasound energy to facilitate their removal
- Small incision site
- The doctor has more control over the removal process leading to better results
- Minimal scarring
- Lower recovery times
- Local anaesthetic leads to less risk of an adverse reaction
- Increased skin tightening as collagen is stimulated during the process of the procedure
A thigh liposuction procedure can sculpt your legs to the shape you’ve always desired.
Am I a good candidate for leg liposuction?
A good candidate for a leg liposuction procedure is someone struggling with stubborn fat deposits on their legs that don't respond to diet and exercise. Ideal candidates should have realistic expectations and maintain a healthy lifestyle post-procedure.

How is leg liposculpture in Sydney carried out at ICCM?
If you choose to have your leg liposculpture in Sydney with ICCM, this is what you can expect:
Consultation
Every prospective patient at ICCM is required to have a personal consultation with the chief doctor. This is a very beneficial step in the process as it offers the chance to determine which procedure is best suited to your needs while giving you the opportunity to ask all of the questions you may have about the process.
At your consultation, one of our experienced professionals will assess your physical and emotional health while discussing any current or past medical conditions. We’ll advise you on any medications or supplements that may interfere with the process and talk through any other cosmetic surgery procedures you’ve had if any.
Procedure
During leg liposuction, subcutaneous fat is removed from areas of the legs (inner and outer thighs and calves if desired). The treated area is filled with a medicated solution and the fat cells are then targeted with state-of-the-art ultrasound energy before being removed from the body through a gentle suction process.
Thin cannulas are then inserted below the skin through tiny incisions and used to break apart and vacuum out unwanted fat. The incisions are made in the body’s natural folds (when possible), to minimise the appearance of any resulting scarring.
Recovery
After the procedure, you can expect to experience some swelling and bruising but these side effects are completely normal and should disappear after approximately 2 weeks. We recommend that you take at least a few days off work to give your body a chance to heal. You must avoid strenuous exercise for 3 weeks but light walking is recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you have any more questions about leg liposculpture in Sydney or any of our services, please don’t hesitate to contact us today. In the meantime, you can find our FAQs below that may provide the additional information you’re looking for.
While both procedures aim to remove excess fat, liposculpture focuses more on body contouring and defining muscles, whereas liposuction primarily removes larger amounts of fat. Liposculpture may involve more detailed shaping, particularly useful in thigh liposuction procedures.
After liposculpture, the removed fat cells are gone permanently. However, remaining fat cells can expand if one doesn't maintain a healthy lifestyle. It's crucial to keep a balanced diet and regular exercise regimen to preserve the results.
Yes, walking is generally encouraged shortly after a leg liposuction procedure to promote circulation and reduce the risk of complications. However, the extent of activity should be moderate, and it's important to follow the surgeon's specific post-operative guidelines.
Leg liposuction involves small incisions, which may leave minimal scars. Skilled surgeons aim to place these incisions strategically to minimise visible scarring. The leg liposuction cost often includes post-operative care to enhance healing and reduce scarring visibility.
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks but as leg lipo is a minimally invasive procedure, it’s considered quite safe. The most significant risk is having too much fat taken from the treatment area but this is highly unlikely when carried out by an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
Risks and complications of cosmetic surgery
These risks, while concerning, are generally rare and can be mitigated through careful planning, following pre- and post-operative care instructions, and working with qualified and experienced medical practitioners, like those at ICCM. But it can still be beneficial to understand potential risks that can occur, so you can discuss these risks before proceeding with any treatment.
Scarring
Scarring is a common risk with any surgery that involves making incisions in the skin. While practitioners take care to place incisions in discreet areas and close them carefully to minimise scars, the body’s healing process varies from person to person. Some individuals may develop thicker, more noticeable scars, known as hypertrophic scars or keloids, which can be difficult to treat and may require additional procedures.
Bruising and Swelling
Bruising and swelling are common side effects of surgery as the body responds to tissue trauma. While these symptoms typically subside within a few weeks, severe bruising can cause discomfort and prolong recovery. In some cases, significant swelling might indicate underlying issues such as fluid accumulation or infection, requiring further medical attention.
Bleeding
Bleeding during surgery is controlled by the surgical team, but there is always a risk of excessive bleeding either during the procedure or postoperatively. This can lead to complications like hematomas, where blood pools under the skin, potentially requiring surgical drainage. Severe bleeding can also lead to shock, which is a medical emergency.
Infection
Infection is a risk whenever the skin is broken, as it provides a pathway for bacteria to enter the body. Surgical sites are particularly vulnerable, especially if the wound care instructions are not followed closely. Infections can range from minor skin infections to more serious, deep-tissue infections that might require antibiotics, drainage, or even additional surgery to resolve.
Pain
Pain is an expected part of recovery from any surgery, but its intensity and duration can vary. While most pain can be managed with prescribed medications, some patients may experience prolonged or severe pain, which could indicate complications such as nerve damage or infection. Chronic pain is a less common, but more serious, concern that might persist long after the typical recovery period.
Undesirable Cosmetic Outcome
An undesirable cosmetic outcome occurs when the results of the surgery do not meet the patient’s expectations, or the aesthetic goals outlined before the procedure. This could be due to asymmetry, unnatural appearance, or a failure to achieve the desired contour or shape. In some cases, additional procedures, known as revision surgeries, may be needed to correct these issues.
Nerve Damage
Nerve damage is a risk in many cosmetic procedures, especially those that involve cutting near nerves. This can lead to numbness, tingling, or even loss of sensation in the affected area. While some nerve damage may be temporary and improve over time, permanent nerve injury can result in lasting changes in sensation or function.
Seroma
A seroma is a pocket of clear fluid that can build up under the skin after surgery. It often occurs when the surgical area is not fully drained, leading to swelling and discomfort. Seromas are usually treated by draining the fluid with a needle, but if left untreated, they can increase the risk of infection or contribute to poor wound healing.
Anaesthetic Complications
Anaesthetic complications can arise from both general and local anaesthesia. These risks include allergic reactions, respiratory issues, and, in rare cases, more severe reactions such as malignant hyperthermia. Patients with pre-existing health conditions or those undergoing lengthy procedures are at a higher risk. Complications can range from temporary disorientation or nausea to more serious outcomes like heart attack or stroke.
Death
Death is the most severe and rare risk associated with cosmetic surgery. It can result from complications related to anaesthesia, excessive bleeding, severe infection, or an adverse reaction during the procedure. While the overall risk is low, it underscores the importance of a thorough preoperative assessment and choosing an experienced, qualified medical practitioner to minimise risks.
