I have IBS and have bloating. I've gained inches on my typically smaller waist area. Is it safe for me to have lipo?

I will be getting liposuction in 2 weeks time on my upper, lower, flanks and bra strap area. 1) will it be okay/safe to also get my arms done via liposuction one week after my first operation? 2) Are there any benefits with liposuction -in alleviating IBS symptoms ie. improved waste expelling, removal of toxins, reduced bloathing, etc & 3) can I undergo the Cool Sculpting method 1 week after my abdomen liposuction or are there safety issues I should be aware of? Looking forward to your answers.
