Leg lipo and Period

It's understandable to have concerns about your comfort and privacy, especially when undergoing a procedure like leg liposuction. For lipedema liposuction, the general procedure is usually done general anesthesia, so you won’t be conscious during the process. Most likely, you'll be asked to wear a hospital gown during the procedure, which keeps you covered while allowing access to the areas being treated.
As for your period, it's typically fine to undergo surgery while menstruating. However, many people choose to reschedule their surgery around their period, especially for personal comfort. If rescheduling isn't an option, the medical team can take extra precautions. You can certainly express your concerns about not wanting to be fully exposed or uncomfortable, and the surgical staff will do their best to accommodate your preferences.
Regarding your period, it's possible to use sanitary pads or other discreet options to ensure you’re as comfortable as possible during the procedure. Be sure to bring it up with your surgeon before the day of surgery to discuss any concerns. They are there to ensure your safety and comfort.

Thank you for your question. In the operating room we see vaginas and blood every day. It's nothing to be worried about. The nice thing about surgery is that everyone sees all body parts every day! We all have them! There is nothing sexual about it and nothing to be embarrassed about. It's a normal part of being a woman.
