Pregnancies and Liposuction Timing
If you are going to get pregnant again right away then wait on the liposuctioning but if you are going to wait a year or two then the liposuction now makes sense. Why not look great for a year or two by doing the liposuctioning and lift your self esteem.

Wait to Have Surgery
Thanks for the question.
Generally it is in your best interest to complete pregnancies prior to having any type of abdominal surgery. Most patients who have had pregnancies will have much better results with tummy tuck surgery as opposed to any type of liposuction surgery.
When the time is right please consult with a well experienced board certified plastic surgeon.
Best wishes.

Liposuction Between Pregnancies
While it is okay to have liposuction between close pregnancies I would not normally advise this. I don't know how long it has been since your last baby but your body will improve on its own with time,exercise and healthy eating. If it is over 1-2 years since your last delivery, your not breastfeeding and you finished having children then seek a consultation on the best options to get you where you want to be. This is just my personal philosophy-- you will have to...

Liposculpture results persist past pregnancy if weight gain is moderate
Liposculpture results persist past pregnancy if weight gain is moderate. Liposculpture removes fat cells and if these are not increased during pregnancy there is little to fear.

Patience
You should wait a few months until you have lost all the weight gained during pregnancy. Liposuction will have no effect on future pregnancies.

More children soon? Then wait.
Hello,
Congratulations. The answer here revolves around when you are planning to have more children. If the additional pregnancies are planned soon, then wait on the lipo.

Liposuction after a baby, timing...
First of all, congratulations. Next, the timing of surgery depends on your family planning. If you are planning on having multiple children soon, then I would wait. If you may have one five years from no, that is a different subject. This is very subjective, and really depends on you.
If you are going to have multiple births, your body may need a tummy tuck and plication, (as opposed to liposuction). It all depends on your tissues and how your body...

Liposuction after pregnancy
Congratulations on your new baby! Liposuction is very popular in recent mothers to get rid of some of the most stubborn fat. However, at this time you should focus on your baby and wait for the results of your pregnancy and breast-feeding to wear off. Do not consider surgery for at least 6 to 8 months after your pregnancy or after you have finished breast-feeding.

Timing of having babies and Liposuction / Tummy Tucks
Although you could have liposuction / liposelection / differential liposuction or a Tummy Tuck between pregnancies, it would not be a great idea. We all know just how much a pregnancy permanently changes the body. For the best and longest lasting results it would be smarter to have such procedures AFTER you completed your family and your weight was stable for 6 months.

Have children first followed by definitive abdominal surgery
Depending on your examination, it is most likely that you will benefit from a tummy tuck rather than either liposelection or lipodissolve. The reason for this is that the appearance of your post-partum belly is likely attributable to lax skin and muscle rather than fatty accumulations. If you truly have a localized fatty deposit and excellent skin tone than either of the above in the right hands will likely deliver equivalent results. Liposelection is the use of ultrasound and, to date, the...
