Can someone die from liposuction caused by blood clot?

Hello.
Great question. Yes blood clots may be fatal. Various methods are taken during every surgical procedure to avoid the developments of blood clots. 

Dear Imaginative9243,
There is really small chance of death during BBL surgery performed by board-certified plastic surgeon, but still, there is a chance for death to happen. In most cases, it is caused by pulmonary embolism. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Thank you so much for your question.
A Board Plastic Surgeon avoid complications during and after surgery, the patient need to follow Surgeon protocol to avoid risks. A blood clot it could be a serious problem after surgery but  after a Liposuction procedure the Surgeon authorizes to use compressions socks and medications to avoid this type of complications and her/him will inform the patient how long she/he needs to used them. 
If you are thinking about having a plastic surgery please speak with your Plastic Surgeon.

Dr. Quiroz!
