I am looking into getting liposuction for my problem areas of stomach, inner thighs, and upper arms. I am 35, 5'4" and 220lbs and have been within 10-15lbs of this weight since college. I have PCOS and struggle with the fat that collects at my stomach. Is liposuction a viable option for me?

Answer: PCOS and liposuction Your BMI is very high, greater than 37. The maximum amount of fat removed in a single session is limited to 5 liters (which is a LOT), but you have significantly more. I routinely do PCOS patients with weird fatty distributions. Doing liposuction on you would be a “jump start” towards looking somewhat better. I would be limited to only one area: Either front of your stomach Or your sides and back. To do a Lipo 360 would be a two step procedure Dr. Taranow

Answer: Liposuction is an option but you will need additional skin excisional procedure Hi!! Yes liposuction can be done for you and will definitely help in motivating you for further transformation..But in your case specially in your abdomen , you also have lot of excess loose skin which needs to be excised. Just doing liposuction even with the best tightening device will leave behind lax hanging skin which will make you look aged. So I would advice to undergo 360 liposuction with tummy tuck in one stage followed by thigh and arm contouring in 2nd stage
