I'm considering getting liposuction done on multiple areas: stomach (abs), back, arms, and chin. Is this feasible? Does getting multiple areas done at once prolong recovery? Are results worse than if each area is done separately?
Answer: How many liposuction procedures can I get at once? Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.. This is the surgical procedure that revolutionized cosmetic surgery becoming one of the most performed cosmetic procedures. Subcutaneous tissue or fat is removed in order to contour the body in a way that is harmonious and pleasing to the senses. It can be performed in almost all regions of the body such as the neck, chin, abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs, arms and ankles. Usually done through a small incision in the skin through which a cannula connected to a vacuum is applied, it can be performed alone or in combination with other procedures. After liposuction your body is going to be really swollen for at least 2 to 4 months after your surgery. It is important for you to wear your compression garment for at least 6 months, the first 3 months 24/7 and then the last 3 months at least 12 hours per day for your body get use to not having the faja for so many time. When you remove it, your body can get swollen and also you can have pain. Remember to also compress your body to prevent a seroma which is an accumulation of liquid that has to be drained, it is hard to touch and also really painful. Bruises are completely normal for almost 3 months from surgery, that’s why is better for you to use a bruising cream and apply it all over your body 3 times a day. To prevent bad circulation and swollen legs, use compression socks. Brazilian butt lift can be performed with the same procedure and for a month it will be swollen and it will drop a little bit without losing it’s shape if you use your garment.. If you’re going to perform liposuction on your inner, outer, anterior, lateral, postetior thighs, be careful and consult with your surgeon what’s best for you, sometimes we have more extra skin than fat, that can cause severe sagginess on our legs, which can be only be reversed performing a thigh lift!

Answer: There are many variables in deciding how many areas or how much can be done at one setting with lipo. A few areas can be done with each liposuction procedure under local and a few procedures can be done just a day or two apart. Usually an upper and lower tummy and hips can be done in 1 procedure and then the midback, axillae(arm pit areas) and arms can be done in another procedure and the thighs/knees in another. all 3 can be done in 1 week easily usually. Some docs will try to do it all in just one procedure under general anesthesia and only take a little out of each area so you wind up with a lousy result. It is better to go to a doc who is very thorough and does it under local for best results.

Answer: Liposuction/ Liposculpture/ Vaser/ Hi Definition Procedures I appreciate your question. Yes, multiple areas can be performed together as long as you are in overall good health and cleared for elective surgery by your primary care doctor. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery. Best of luck!

Answer: Liposculpting Mutiple Areas You've already received some informative information from the other physicians. Everybody patient is different so a consultation in person is the best way to find out what's best for you. I usually find that the maximum in one session is the upper and lower abdomen, flanks, lower back, and sometimes the chin. Adding the arms is likely going to be too much in one session because of lidocaine dosage and the volume of aspirate. Doing too much at one time typically leads to less removal of fat and less dramatic results. Hope this helps. :)JY
