It is very common, especially in women, to find thin legs with larger knees and fat deposits. The solution is... liposuccion  knees.
 

WHAT IS KNEE LIPOSUCTION?

 
There are several methods for performing liposuction on the knees with good results. Among the most advanced are WAL liposuction (water-assisted liposuction) and lipolaser-assisted or laser-assisted liposuction. The reason for this is that they facilitate fat removal while being more respectful of the surrounding tissues, which is particularly important in a joint.
Regardless of the technique chosen, the fat is harvested using micro-cannulas. These require small incisions that leave no visible scars on the skin. They appear only as virtually invisible marks.
Generally, because it's a small area, the procedure is short, about an hour or two. However, this depends on the technique used and the volume of fat to be removed. Logically, it will take longer if liposuction of this area is performed at the same time as other areas, such as the knees and ankles, or the knees and legs.
 
The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia or light sedation.
Hospitalization is generally not necessary. However, rest is required for the first few days. It's important to remember that this is a joint, and it's difficult to keep it perfectly still. Therefore, the best way to avoid excessive movement is to plan a rest period of one or two days. It is also recommended to wait a month before engaging in strenuous physical activity or sports. Wearing a compression garment is also prescribed for the postoperative period following knee liposuction. The final result is visible after about twenty days.
