Liposuction and PCOS?

Thank you for the question. As long as you are otherwise a good candidate for liposuction surgery, polycystic ovary syndrome will not be a contraindication. A good liposuction candidate is a patient who presents with diet and exercise resistant adipose tissue isolated to specific areas. These patients are not looking for a weight loss solution.

Liposuction is fine in patients with PCOS

It is unclear what your question is but you seem concerned that liposuction will be unsafe with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. As long as you have no other contraindications and are near to your ideal weight, you are likely a good candidate if you have areas of disproportionate fat. A board certified Plastic Surgeon will be able to answer all your questions. There is also no impact of liposuction on fertility or on a future pregnancy. Good Luck! Dr. Mosher
