7 yrs P/O gastric bypass- Scheduled to have a BBL in the coming months. Should I add thigh lipo or wait and do it another time?

Cavalier986
Hello. I’m scheduled to have a BBL in the coming months. Let me state I am a gastric bypass patient (7 yrs ago) and have excess skin. I inquired about having thigh lipo and was told it can be added on to my surgery but it takes away from the 5L maximum which I understand. My question is Should I wait & do the thigh lipo another time b/c I’m not sure if I’ll need a thigh lift as well. Or should I go ahead & add it??? Thanks in advance
