Will venous insufficiency disqualify me from having liposuction/BBL?

January 11, 2018
Asked By:Dreamin_90

I was considering having liposuction or a BBL, but am not certain I would be a candidate.I was recently diagnosed with venous insufficiency in the femoral vein in bi-lateral legs, and is currently being treated with daily wear of compression socks. I am not sure if having either one of these procedures would be possible because of this, and if I would be high risk for blood clots.
