Can I Get Liposuction if I Weigh 240lbs?

If you do not have any health issues then you can have liposuction. Remember that you will see close to nothing in the way of weight loss with liposuction. It in no way takes the place of a weight loss program. There is a standard protocol for the amount of fat to be removed during one surgical setting. Your surgeon will not be able to liposuction out an endless amount of fat. Normally the procedure is used to remove pocket of fat or to sculpt the body. If your expectations are reasonable then you may be pleased with the result. Good luck to you.

The ideal candidate for liposuction is thin with isolated areas of fat. Nevertheless, heavier patients are often very pleased with the procedure provided their expectations are in line with the capabilities of the procedure. Loose skin is a common side effect when large volume liposuction is performed.
