'My thighs are unusually thick,

so my lower body proportions look off.'

'When I buy pants,

I choose based on my thighs, but the fit still doesn’t look good.'

'The fat on the inside of my thighs won’t go away,

so it rubs when I walk and hurts.'

These are such common concerns about thigh fat that they could almost be called a three-piece set of thigh concerns.

There are also related issues, such as the problem that even after dieting the thighs do not get slimmer, or that cellulite makes them look bumpy.

Thigh fat can look healthy and firm when it is moderate, but if you want a slim leg line, it is practically the main enemy.

Today, we’ll take a detailed look at the principles of Body InMode, its effects, and the approach by thigh area that can help burn fat and reduce unwanted fullness.

Body InMode Thighs

  • What is the principle of InMode?
  • What effect does it have on the thighs?
  • Inner thigh treatment points
  • Outer thigh treatment points

Body InMode Thighs What is the principle of InMode?

InMode is a treatment that reduces fat cells through heat generated by sending radiofrequency (RF) energy into the subcutaneous fat layer.

During the procedure, the skin is lightly pinched and suctioned, allowing the energy to be delivered more deeply and evenly.

Because the high-voltage electrical stimulation delivered along with the radiofrequency creates pores in the fat cell membrane, it helps unwanted fat reduce effectively.

When treating the thighs,

"How much does it go down? How many cm will it reduce?"

are questions some people ask.

Of course, as fat is removed, thigh circumference also decreases, but Body InMode is generally better understood as being about line changes rather than just size reduction.

In particular, because it tends to show changes mainly in the stubborn fullness on the inner thighs that is hard to lose through exercise, or in the uneven areas along the outer thigh line, it can give the feeling of a more refined body line.

There are individual differences, but in many cases people begin to notice changes after about 2 to 4 weeks.

Body InMode Inner thigh treatment points

Because the thighs cover such a wide treatment area, the treatment points need to be carefully identified even within the same thigh area.

First, the inner thigh is relatively thin and sensitive—so much so that its skin thickness can be considered about half that of the outer thigh.

And because it is an area through which major blood vessels that support circulation throughout the legs pass, swelling or bruising can easily occur after treatment.

That is why, when treating the inner thigh, the energy level must be adjusted more carefully, and sufficient intervals between treatments are also important.

Usually, treatment starts at about 20-30% lower intensity than the outer thigh, and is gradually adjusted while observing the response.

By contrast, the outer thigh has relatively thicker, firmer skin, and the fat layer is more densely distributed.

In particular, as the fat becomes organized, it often takes on a hard form commonly called "riding saddle fat."

Because of these characteristics, it may require stronger energy than the inner thigh, and repeated treatments are often needed.

Also, the outer thigh connects the hips and calves and forms the overall lower-body line, so a detailed plan and design are needed in advance to determine how much fat should be reduced through treatment.

Since fat distribution, muscle mass, and body shape differ from person to person even in the same thigh area, a thorough analysis is essential if you are considering Body InMode for the thighs.

And even if the thighs are equally a concern, the approach for someone who is especially troubled by the inner thighs and someone who wants to improve the overall leg line must be completely different.

Therefore, when choosing a clinic, it is a good idea to check whether they understand the anatomical characteristics of the treatment area well and carefully consider the differences in your body shape and treatment scope when making a treatment plan.
