My daughter is a healthy 15 year old. 5'6 125 pounds. She doesn't diet, just eats healthy and she's on the swim team. Despite being a normal weight and active she still has areas on her body that haven't seemed to change and that she's unhappy with mainly her stomach and hips. Would she be able to have liposuction?
