Can I get lipo 360 if I have varicose veins on my legs?

varicoses veins do not affect liposuction however, you should get them looked at and consider hormonal optimization as well to improve circulation and skin tightening. Best, Dr. Emer.

Many women have superficial varicosity, which is really a cosmetic issue. If you have deep vein issues, then you are at higher risk for a thrombosis or embolism and should address this first. All liposuction should be performed with the patient wearing compression stockings or booties.

Having very close veins may put you a slightly higher risk for complications but probably not enough for a surgeon not to move forward with liposuction of your torso if you’re an appropriate candidate for that procedure.

Removing varicose veins does not lower your risk for blood clots.
