How much fat can be taken from an area in smartlipo? (photo)

The "number of areas" math varies from surgeon to surgeon. You should view your body in complete aesthetic units. The back and sides, for example is a single aesthetic unit, the full abdomen is another. Treating a full aesthetic unit at one time is the least you should do if you want the best chance at a great result. Breaking down full aesthetic units with an ala carte mentality will usually produce incomplete results and leave you looking like a French poodle.

I would suggest you set up a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns. I like my patients to be within 10lbs of their goal weight before having the procedure. The amount of fat suctioned depends on your anatomy and how aggressive your surgeon is. I think if you and your doctor are on the same page and goals are understood you should have a very good result that will make you happy. Best of luck to you!

Logan,Congrats on losing the 34 lbs.  I suggest getting closer to your ideal body weight before doing Smartlipo.  Even thought many liters of fat can be removed with this procedure, it is designed to be a sculpting tool, not a weight loss enhancer.  I also suggest being off of any medication that can cause weight gain, especially if it is something like Prednisone.  Finally, make sure your thyroid is functioning properly.  Good luck!

Hello,
Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure. This is for body sculpting. 4-5 Liters of fat can be taken during 1 surgical session. This is about 10-12 pounds only.

I always tell my patients that cosmetic surgery is an elective procedure that should be done when you are ready for a complete treatment by a good surgeon and not worried about severe consequences in your economic situation. It is always better to wait and get a full torso liposuction, maybe adding a tummy tuck if your exam shows it would be required for complete cosmetic enhancement. I never perform liposuction by areas, I think the results are always disappointing and the money spent is not much less than doing it in a more thorough way. My advise is for you to avoid this area by area treatment sadly performed more for economic interest than patient results. Good luck

Smart Lipo may remove a few pounds, but it is not a weight loss procedure, rather it is for removing stubborn areas of fat that cannot be removed with weight loss and diet / exercise alone.  VASER HI DEF is needed to get the ultimate in contouring, do not compromise your care for cost or distance.

Here in California, there is a mandated limit of 5 Liters of fat that can be removed at one session.  However, this is a *very* large amount and we tend to recommend a few smaller sessions so that recovery will be quicker and the procedure much safer.
It is beneficial that you meet with a qualified and experienced surgeon so that you do not undergo an unnecessarily risky procedure.
Hope that helps.

Not sure what you are asking, but you probably have over 6 Liters of fat that can be harvested. I would recommend high definition lipo using VASER to perform a full body contouring.
