Saddlebags

Thigh fat, commonly referred to as ‘saddlebags’, can appear as a bulge on both the inner and outer thighs. As well as sometimes being aesthetically unsightly, it can also cause friction and discomfort when the inner thigh fat on each leg rubs together. Thigh fat can affect anyone at any age but is most common in women aged 30 and over.

This condition is often hereditary but a lack of exercise and an unhealthy diet may cause or contribute to fatty deposits developing on the thighs. Like many other types of fat, thigh fat is difficult to loose solely through diet and exercise.

We recommend Coolsculpting to treat this condition. Coolsculpting is a non-invasive, FDA approved procedure that freezes away unwanted fat cells using controlled cooling and is highly effective in removing fat on the thighs with results showing in as little as 6 weeks and full results in 12-16 weeks.   This treatment may also have the added benefit of helping to reduce the appearance of any cellulite that is present on the thighs.
