Answer: Preoperative Medical Clearances Dear Ms. jodygrandy Safety is our number one objective in elective "non necessary" cosmetic surgery. Please make a appointment with your diabetes and high blood pressure treating physician who has expertise (that we don't have as Plastic Surgeons) and ask for a preoperative medical clearance. As long as your blood sugars and blood pressure are controlled and Hgb1ac is normal you proably at no greater risk than normal. Arthritis per sae is not a risk other than the medication you may take for it. If you receive a medical clearance I recommend that you make several consultative appointments with Plastic Surgeons who are experienced and Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. In addition ideally they are members of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (denoting by membership as having met additional criteria and a focus on Cosmetic Plastic Surgery). I wish you my best and success, R. A. Hardesty, MD, FACS Diplomate and Certified by the Am.

Answer: Liposuction Candidate--VASER HI DEF 4D Liposculpture, ThermiRF, fat grafting, possible tummy tuck As long as these medical issues are being controlled and you receive clearance from your Doctor, you can have liposuction. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction, which can be performed at the same time as a tummy tuck, depending on skin laxity. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF/J Plasma/Renuvion/InMode BodyTite and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Medical Clearance Before Liposuction Jody. As long as your medical conditions are well-controlled and your medical doctor will clear you for surgery, you should be able to undergo liposuction of your abdomen. Of course your BMI should be 30 or less for best results and safety reasons. Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck.
