I don't think there would be an absolute contraindication but this is a strange combination of procedures to do. It would have to be done with the consent of both the general and plastic surgeon.
It is possible to do liposuction of areas not involving the abdomen during an elective gallbladder removal, provided both surgeons are willing to do so.Any evidence of infection or inflammation of the gallbladder would be a reason not to proceed, and there should be no interference with the gallbladder incisions by the areas liposculpted
As long as the liposuction areas are remote from the abdominal incisions, doing both surgeries simultaneously should not be a problem.
There isn't a problem, but it depends if you're having an acute episode, you shouldn't. Also I wouldn't recommend using the same incision as were they take out the gallbladder. This is very unconventional.
