How effective is liposuction if this is my third time seeking this surgery?

I would generally not recommend having liposuction in the same areas a third time. The effects will not be as good due to internal scar tissue from previous surgeries and lack of remaining fat cells, and there is a higher chance of unwanted side effects. It may be a good idea for you to try to make some lifestyle changes and try to lose the weight you’ve put on naturally first, and if you still want to try liposuction again after that, visit a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who has experience performing liposuction and revision liposuction for a consultation to see if it’s a viable option for you.

If you are a candidate, and that is determined by a formal consultation, then liposuction can be very effective.  I suggest revision surery with a physician who is experienced in VASER and hi definition procedures.  Please see an expert.  Best, Dr. Emer.

With every treatment, you can expect some diminishing returns in terms of your results. I would advise you to lose the excess weight first and then seek a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area about the best body contouring options to achieve your desired results.
