5'6/Afr. Amer/ f/ 40/ healthy/245lbs/fies not smoke nor drink any alcohol. The main reason why i want a large volume lipo done is because i dread the summer when i perspire "down below" heavy because of this gut that hangs so low. it is very uncomfortable to wear panties and other garments because they will roll. I am finished with children now. I just eant to work on "me". What should i prepare for and how much would this cost me?
Answer: Liposuction Candidate -- Body Contouring, Diet, Exercise, Surgery, VASER HI DEF 4D LIPO/ 360 Degree Liposculpture You need a formal evaluation by an expert in body shaping and contouring to determine what is best. You will likely need to lose weight first before undergoing any cosmetic procedure to get the best outcome. For best results, it is recommended to be at your ideal or stable weight before getting a sculpting liposuction procedure. Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure; rather, it is for sculpting, defining and removing problem areas that cannot be removed with weight loss, diet and exercise alone. If skin is very loose before surgery, then it will need to be removed: tummy tuck/abdominoplasty for lower abdominal skin; breast lift for excess breast skin; and/or a brachioplasty for loose arm skin. In the meantime, I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a bariatric doctor or dietitian. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Liposuction Liposuction can remove 10 lbs safely during one session. This is done on an out-patient basis, takes about 2 hours to perform and cost $4,000-$7,000. Liposuction can be repeated if needed or desired. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.
