Thank you for the question and sorry for your loss. I trust you can consider having Smartlipo laser liposuction once you have recovered fully. Also, the Smartlipo surgeon could speak to your to Doctor to discuss any medical concerns and to give a medical clearance before moving forward with the laser liposuction procedure.
You'll need full medical clearance before moving forward with the procedure. See an expert to discuss your next steps. Best, Dr. Emer
Dear Warmhearted318432,every plastic surgeon has his own preoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients.

First and foremost I’m sorry for your loss.I suppose how far along in your pregnancy could have some impact but I don’t see any reason why you should need to wait any longer than simply feeling recovered.You can always run it by your OB/GYN or talk to your plastic surgeon if you have chosen one.If not I suggest scheduling multiple in person consultations with local board-certified plastic surgeons who have a lot of experience with Liposuction.Delivering consistent high-quality Liposuction results is more difficult than people believe.Who does the procedure has a major impact on what the results look like.Those seeking Liposuction should be very selective on who they pick as their surgeon.Best,Mats Hagstrom MD

ACM Thank you for your inquiry, I am not very familiar with laser cavitation. The laser sculpting I am most knowledge is laser liposuction. However, Copper IUD or other IUD should not interfere with your chance to have a successful body sculpting procedure.
Victoza (liraglutide) for insulin resistance is OK. No you do not need to stop it before surgery.The only metabolic / diabetes medication that is a contraindication for liposuction is insulin. Wishing you the best of health, Dr Wright.
