Can a 450 lbs person use laser lipo?

Question

I was just wonder if some one was 450lbs how many sessions will it take to drop 150 to 200 lbs.

Mark Edward Hennessy, MD · Answer

Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure. Liposuction will improve the contours for a patient by way of sculpting their localized areas of fat. It is my opinion that you should research different weight loss treatments and seek expert opinion from a bariatric surgeon. She or he could save your life.

Laser liposuction can remove stubborn areas of fat, but wouldn't be able to be used for that purpose. Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, rather it is for sculpting and defining and removing problem areas that cannot be removed with weight loss and diet / exercise alone.  For best results, it is recommended to be at your ideal or stable weight before getting a sculpting liposuction procedure.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your question. Liposuction is not a weight loss operation. You should work on loosing the weight by diet and excercise and none works bariatric surgery. Please talk to your Primary care physician for options.
