31/f. I've had liposuction twice to transfer fat to my face. I was considering in the future maybe either a BBL or fat transfer to the breast, but im wondering - is there a limit to how many times in a persons life they can get lipo?
Answer: Generally speaking, with proper examination, it is okay to get multiple rounds of liposuction responsibly. Thank you for your question. It is possible to undergo multiple rounds of liposuction, although it may become more difficult with each successive procedure due to subcutaneous scarring. There is also the fact that with each liposuction procedure, there is less fat to remove as fat does not generally regrow. In your case, relatively little fat was removed for your facial fat grafting. I do a lot of it in my practice and it does not take more than a few milliliters. I you have enough fat for a BBL or breast augmentation, there should be little difficulty harvesting it despite the fact that you have had previous fat grafting procedures.

Answer: Fat grafting and liposuction Usually, fat grafting to the face does not require a significant amount of fat and therefore he probably still have additional fat in the areas that the valve was harvested from. With that being said, liposuction removes fat cells from the area being suctioned and new fat cells did not replace them. Also, previous liposuction and fat grafting harvests will cause an area that has previously been suctioned to have additional scarring. Too many liposuction procedures can lead to contour irregularities and unwanted scarring

Answer: Multiple Rounds of Liposuction There is no specific limit on how many times a person can undergo liposuction. It all depends on how much excess fat remains in the area and if the anticipated outcome is inline with the patients desires and realistic goals. I find that there is a maximum to 2-3 rounds of liposuction in the same area. That is full thinning of the fatty layer. With each round / session of liposuction, there is less and less fat available and therefore the change is typically less dramatic. If an area has been addressed for minimal fat removal such as your situation, that zone may be approached more than 2-3 times. I hope this makes sense.

Answer: Liposuction Liposuction can be done in areas that have excess fat. If you gain weight, you may be able to repeat liposuction several times. Once the excess fat is removed, then liposuction cannot be done.

Answer: Is there a limit in the number of liposuction procedures one can undergo? Hi and welcome to our forum!Repetitive liposuction in a specific area is possible. However, each successive procedure will result in deposition of more scar tissue. Eventually, further fat removal becomes increasingly more difficult with each surgery, following the "law of diminishing returns". Surgical risks increase as well, as the scar tissue may distort adjacent structures. In general, there is no limit in the number of times an individual can undergo liposuction (as there are many areas from which fat may be harvested).Visit a board certified plastic surgeon for evaluation and discussion.Best wishes...
