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!
