Large-volume liposuction in Colorado- anyone know of any doctors that do this?

RSMember15753Mar 17, 2018
I live in Colorado and I have a large, pendulous abdomen that I can't get rid of. It was just as big when I was about 60 lbs lighter, and bigger now. I just want it gone. I know large-volume liposuction, especially for obesity, is unconventional and risky, but I have made my decision and am well aware of the risks. Does anyone know of any providers in Colorado that would perform a surgery like this? Please only comment if you know of someone (no offense to anyone lol!).

It is too soon to tell what your final results will be. You have swelling, which can last 3-6 months after your procedure. I recommend adding hyperbaric oxygen and lymphatic massage along with your compression to help decrease swelling. To improve your final results, I also recommend adding...

From your photos, it looks like you have good skin quality. If you don’t have loosened abdominal muscles, then liposuction will give you the flatter stomach that you desire. You may also want to consider noninvasive fat-elimination techniques, such as Vanquish, CoolSculpting and ThermiTight. P...

Thank you for your question. This really depends on whether or not you want to have a surgical procedure and what your expectations are going to be. If you want to have a significant result and are willing to undergo surgery, then there is no question that liposuction results are always far...

Keep in mind that you will still experience swelling up to 4-6 months after liposuction. Allow it time to heal and if you need revisions after the healing time then make sure you're using a BC PS. During this time wearing your compression garments and doing massage can help as well. Best of Luck.

Hi! One can have arm liposuction with a hormonal implant in place. The implant may very well be in the liposuction plane, so it is possible that you may want to have it removed for better final contour results. Exogenous hormone can increase your risk of getting a blood clot in your legs, so t...
