Typically the answer is yes, you can have liposuction at that weight. I have successfully lipo sculpted many over weight patients with excellent satisfying outcomes. If you have fat available, then it can be removed to create a smaller more shapely version of you. Send some photos and come visit. I have patients fly into town for a few days for this procedure.
Thank you for your question and photos. I believe it is best to be within 10 - 15 pounds of your ideal body weight prior to surgery for optimal results. Please consult with a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in body contouring for an in-person examination. Ask to see a lot of before and after pictures of their work to understand what can be achieved. Hope this helps and good luck.
there is no absolute weight limit to getting liposuction, however overweight patients must be aware that liposuction will not be good as a weight reduction technique. it can only reshape several areas, and you are prone to putting the weight back on if you use it as a weight loss technique.
Liposuction is designed for body shaping and not for weight reduction. As such, the actual weight is not as much of a problem and is not a contraindication to liposuction. Smaller people can have stubborn fat deposit and heavier persons can benefit for liposuction contouring of certain areas.Please make sure that you see an experienced doctor for a thorough consultation and assessment prior to undergoing any treatments.Best regards and I hope this helps, Dr. Sapijaszko.
I appreciate your question. For health and safety reasons, best to be at a BMI less than 30 or within 10 pounds of your goal weight and stable at that weight for 6 months prior to surgery for optimal results. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck!

For greatest safety and greatest satisfaction, your BMI should be 30 or less. Therefore, if you are of average height or less, than you should get closer to your desired long term weight before having the surgery.
If your BMI is very high, then I would suggest losing weight first. Yes, fat can be removed with lipo, but it may need be enough to reach your goals.
Thank you for your question. Without seeing a picture it is hard to comment. It can be done provided you do not have already a loose skin. Please consult with a board certified PS for evaluation
The simple answer is...ABSOLUTELY!I have seen many patients get a boost in their life by getting rid of unwanted fat. Two days ago, I operated on a lady who quit smoking and gained weight. She was around 250 pounds. We took of around 3 liters of fat (Imagine 3 large one liter bottles of coca cola!).Now when she exercises, the fat burn won't be used up. With a weight loss program, I have seen these patients loose 20 pounds!It's alot of work for the surgeon but much greater satisfaction having helped someone in this way
You can absolutely get liposuction on your abdomen. High Definition Liposuction is proven to provide the best results. High Definition Liposuction has three main components. VASER Liposuction will completely melt and remove the fat. Power X Canulas must be used to create a detailed contour and sculpted abdomen by shaving out fat. Finally, the only way you will be able to get a good result is not only remove the fat with VASER and Power X Canulas, but also to do Cool Helium Plasma Skin Tightening to avoid needing a tummy tuck, as well. With these three technologies and a great surgeon, you will be extremely happy with your results.
