Maximum Fat Volume That Can Be Removed by Laser Liposuction?

Outpatient Liposuction - No more than 5 liters = guidelines for most states regardless of whether it is laser lipo, ultrasonic lipo or standard liposuction

Liposuction Limits - depends on State and Safety

5000 cc's (5 liters) is the guideline limit for outpatient liposuction for many states including California. For smaller patients with more areas for liposuction removing less fat may be safer.

general speaking some plastic surgeons believe that Laser Liposuction is not as safe as Tumescent liposuction. Laser liposuction can creat much heat and tissue inflammation which limits the amount of liposuction significantly.

If you are overweight liposuction is not a great option.  If you have a certain area of your body that you don't like and has a stubborn pocket of fat then liposuction is the answer.   I usually tell patient that is they don't like their abdomen then removal of 1000cc of fat from the abdomen will create the same result as them having lost  10 lbs because when you lose weight it won't all come off you abdomen.
