I am hoping that liposuction can help solve or at lease reduce a major problem I am having with reflux ... This system does not allow me the space to offer a detail case history ... which has been complex and difficult So for now --- despite previous surgery and meds ... I often still get major attacks of acid rushing into my throat, mouth and lungs ... Need to lose weight to hope ... but diets have failed ... Does liposuction makes sense for reducing the pressure on the stomach? Thanks

Answer: Liposuction will have no effect on gastroesophageal reflux.
To be honest, this could be any of a number of things. It is not possible to really advise you without pictures or examining you. You should see your PS or a Board Certified plastic surgeon in your area.Best,
Yes your back can be liposuctioned and this fat transferred to your buttock but most people do not have that much fat on their back so it is not clear how much of a butt lift that you would get.
