5'4, 240lbs, any doctors perform BBL & arm lipo on patient with sleep apnea? How did it go? Should I lose more weight?

July 26, 2024

I was told by the Dr. assistant that he can do my bbl w/ 360 lipo and arm lipo. I just need to bring my machine. My primary care doctor said that I should get my tonsils removed first. I found out I had sleep apnea when having what was supposed to be a simple inferior turbinate reduction and adenoidectomy surgery and my oxygen dropped really low and I ended up in the icu for. I'm 5"3 and at the time I was about 305lbs. I'm much smaller now just for context. But I do still have sleep apnea. I'm going to go all the way down to 210 or 220 before I have surgery. Should I lose more weight?
