Smooth Thighs for a 'Rash Guard': How to Get There with Liposuction - Notice & Press 1 - TheLINE Plastic Surgery

The rash guard, hugely popular in summer, is water sports clothing that is effective at blocking UV rays, and because it offers a different kind of appeal from a bikini it is loved by many female celebrities.

Gain of Brown Eyed Girls, Kahi of After School and actress Lee Chae-young have all released rash guard photo shoots, and the 2015 Miss Korea rash guard shoot also drew attention. Actress Park Han-byul showed off her slender figure in rash guard fashion on 'Law of the Jungle' as well.

Many women want to show off great rash guard style during the holiday season, but the problem is that the snug, clingy fabric makes it hard to hide the body's weak points. The hips and thigh line, made up of storage fat that does not come off easily, are also fully on display, which can be a worry for those with lower-body weight concerns.

Dr. Jaeho Cho of TheLINE Plastic Surgery said, "The love handles around where the flank and pelvis meet, along with the thighs and buttocks, are considered especially hard areas to see diet results in," adding, "If diet and exercise have not produced satisfying results, or if there is not much time left before the holidays, liposuction can act as a last resort."

Liposuction directly extracts fat accumulated in the body to smooth the body line, and it can improve the contour of specific areas such as the thighs and buttocks, which are storage fat layers. Performing an ultrasound fat analysis before surgery can raise satisfaction with the result and also helps improve safety.

For the thighs in particular, where large-volume liposuction is common, a pre-operative three-dimensional ultrasound assessment identifies the subcutaneous fat layer of the target area accurately, allowing a careful surgical plan. By predicting the extraction volume in advance, an appropriate amount that is neither excessive nor insufficient can be removed precisely and evenly.

It can also prevent possible side effects such as skin irregularity, cellulite and skin sagging caused by excessive liposuction, and thereby minimize the likelihood of needing liposuction revision surgery. Recovery also tends to be relatively fast, so a return to daily life can come sooner.

Dr. Yongseung Seo said, "Getting a slim body line through surgery matters, but preventing side effects after surgery is also a key factor in satisfaction," advising, "We recommend choosing a clinic where a specialized medical team takes responsibility for everything from the pre-operative consultation to aftercare."
