Can I have liposuction if I have Dermographism (skin condition)?

Question

I want to get liposuction on my stomach but i do have a skin condition called Dermographism so im wondering if that could affect me or my results since liposuction is such an invasive procedure ?

Hello. Great question. It might be possible to perform liposuction. Unfortunately, with no pictures it is difficult to evaluate your condition thoroughly. Please contact a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed examination.

Thank you for your question. It depending on the severity and other co morbid conditions. It is possible to do, but you need to be assessed in person and determine if it can be done or not. Please consult with a board certified PS for evaluation.
