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.
Answer: Will liposuction affect IBS? Hi and welcome to our forum! The answer depends upon the amount of fat removed at your first procedure. Here in Florida, state law allows 4000 cc of fat (6-8 pounds) to be removed in one procedure. If less than 4000 cc is removed, one can address the arms at the same procedure. If 4000 cc is removed at the first procedure and the arms were not initially addressed, the scheduling of the second procedure depends upon your clinical status. Your blood work needs to be repeated for safety. If satisfactory, one can schedule a second procedure. DO NOT undergo coolsculpting of the lipo'ed areas for at least 3 months after liposuction to allow for subsidence of swelling and the hypervascularity of healing. Premature application of cold may significantly damage underlying healing tissues. Liposuction will have no effect upon IBS symptoms. Visit a board certified plastic surgeon for evaluation and discussion. Best wishes...
