Is there a way to surgically remove large quantities of fat?

As my colleagues have mentioned, lipo is about contouring, not weight loss.  Furthermore, fat removal by lipo has not been shown to produce the same health benefits of weight loss.  Whatever you were considering investing in lipo may be more wisely redirected for consideration of a bariatric procedure or even a personal trainer and dietician.  Develop a team to help you reach your goals.  Best of luck!

Hi Daisy,Thanks for your question, the long and short is that liposuction is not your answer to weight loss.  I always educate my patients that this is not a weight loss procedure but more of a contouring of the body. Having said that 5L is the maximum amount of volume that could be removed safely in an outpatient setting, with your current weight, the results would be negligible and not a good use of your money.  This is not to say you will not be a candidate for liposuction in the future but right now you are not a good candidate.  I would start by losing some weight!Good luck!
