Vaser Liposuction

Ending a pregnancy or keeping a pregnancy is a big decision to make so I recommend you discuss this with your doctor, and other people whose opinion you value. Risks are present keeping or ending your pregnancy. We would prefer you wait until the pregnancy status is resolved before undergoing an elective procedure.

Do NOT have elective surgery while pregnant

Hi there- You should allow for definitive resolution (both physical and emotional if necessary) of your unwanted pregnancy before proceeding with elective surgery, if for no other reason than because it may affect your outcome.

Pregnancy and liposuction

Liposuction should not be done at the same time as being pregnant. You have to wait until you resolve your issues with the pregnancy.
