I'm getting breast lift and breast augmentation in August and I'm wanting to get lipo I was told 1000cc is all they can do same day as breast surgery..does 1000cc seem enough? Scared to pay the extra money and not see any results. Not sure if this matters but I have very thick skin and a flabby belly. Thanks!!
Answer: Does 1000cc Seem Enough?
Thank you for your question. If you are doing Lipo in the office in Florida, the max we are allowed to take out is 1000cc. If your surgery is in a surgery center or hospital, we can still remove upto 5000cc.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Lipo You can have more doen but it must be in an approved outpatient surgery center.I believe in Florida they linmit it to about 3000 grams and this should be doable with you.you also have a weak abdominal wall that adds to your protuberance.

Aside from possible skin laxity and abdominal wall laxity issues, I could remove 5 liters from your trunk alone. Liposuction has the most variable results of any procedure. I perform liposuction and breast procedures together on a regular basis. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of liposuction procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Answer: Does 1000cc Seem Enough?
You DID NOT understand the office surgery rules for the state of Florida! If combination surgeries are planned than ONLY 1 liter of supernatant fat can be removed in these combinations of surgeries. Now 1 liter of supernatant fat could equal a total out of 1.5 liters of fat + fluids/blood, But you are correct it appears as if you are nearer to 2 liters of fat. If the operation is done in an Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) or out patient at a hospital operating room than more liters of fat can be removed with the breast surgery. But additional fees will be incurred. Thus, you need a better "informed consent" from the surgeon!!!

Answer: Liposuction amount for good results Thank you for your question and pictures. You seem to be a good candidate for liposuction and for proper sculpting significant volume is to be removed from your abdomen and flanks. Your flanks (side of your abdomen) alone will likely yield more than 1000cc. In addition, if you are considering breast augmentation and lift at the same time, you may be a candidate for AFT (fat injection) to the breast. Best of luck.

Answer: 1000 cc may yield a good result
In Florida the liposuction limit refers to supernatant (pure) fat coming out, not the total amount of liquid removed. I agree 2000-3000 cc would probably be removed but that might only be 1000 cc of actual fat.
I don't know your height/weight, but you look like you have good skin and may do well especially if the liposuction is done mainly around your waist.
The surgeon who saw you in person should be able to estimate whether you would be better off doing a full liposuction at a second stage or the 1000 cc at a single procedure.
