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 Areas Can you Do at Once? Thank you for your question about liposuction. You may safely have your plastic surgeon treat many areas at once. I routinely and safely treat the abdomen, back, love handles, inner and outer thighs, hips, and knees in the same procedure. Some patients add the chin area or other areas such as the arms. The state of California restricts the total volume of fat which can be removed in an outpatient surgical facility and doctors who are board certified plastic surgeons are trained in the surgical and postsurgical care of patients to make the procedures very safe.In over twenty years of practice, we have treated thousands of patients and never had a significant liposuction complication creating a major health concern or had to hospitalize a patient. This type of of safety record is routine for many of my colleagues as well. Best wishes!

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!
