Answer: Long term post lipo consequences
From the sound of your planned liposuction areas, you should age well if you keep you weight somewhat stable. I occasionally will see patients who have has just one isolated area treated and with weight gain you can see some interesting shapes develop. Good luck

Answer: Long Term Risks of Liposuction
There have been no long term effects identified with liposuction, which has been performed around 30 years now.
The risks and potential complications of liposuction are short term and most are related to the risks of any operation: bleeding, scars, wrinkled skin, asymmetry, numbness, bruising, pain, skin discoloration, allergic reactions, DVT (deep vein thrombosis), pulmonary embolism, intra-abdominal penetration, swelling, unrealistic expectations and the need for further surgery. Most liposuction procedures proceed very smoothly, please verify that your surgeon is a board certified plastic surgeon and the operating suite is nationally accredited.
Good Luck!
