Liposuction and weight loss
Liposuction is excellent for body contouring, but poor for weight loss. It is not intended as a weekly treatment, but you likely already know this. B12 injections are often marketed for weight loss, but studies indicate that it does not lead to weight loss. It is given often by medical practitioners, but most people are not deficient in B12.
Good luck!

You don't want to introduce possible infection in an area that was operated by not using clean aseptic technique when having the B12 shots.
