I am 5'3 and 130 lbs . I'm looking at having some lipo on my bra bulge, my upper arms and my thighs. I work out 5 days a week and am in pretty good shape. Does not seem like it would be a surgery that would require an overnight stay but during my consult, they said it would be necessary. I don't have health issues. Is this an odd requirement or a normal ask from a PS given my scenario.

Answer: Liposuction on outpatient basis Liposuction is an outpatient procedure in our practice; patient goes home after surgery with an adult person. Blood loss after liposuction is minimal; State of Florida law limits outpatient liposuction to a maximum of 4 litters. Liposuction over 5 litters may need overnight hospital stay. It doesn't seem that you are in that group. Second opinion consultation with an experienced plastic surgeon is recommended. Good luck.

Answer: Overnight stay after liposuction. The vast majority of liposuction cases are outpatient procedures where the patient goes home after surgery. In some high volume liposuction cases, patients are admitted overnight for monitoring. Best wishes.
