Hello, As the title states I'm looking to have Liposuction performed in the next few weeks. Areas of concern: Flanks, stomach, & thighs. What has been your experience with doing Liposuction with local anesthesia? Can multiple areas be done? I found a few plastic surgeons out of state that perform high volume liposuction with local anesthesia. I've also saw a few surgeons offer the ability to split the procedure up over the course of a few days. General anesthesia isn't a option, would there be any other alternatives to having this procedure performed? I greatly appreciate any guidance and assistance you can provide.
