Hello! I am 5'4" 135lbs with Lipedema and would like to get liposuction on my legs to remove excessive fat. I am generally healthy outside of that. If I have Prothrombin Factor II would I be able to get WAL Liposuction done under general anesthesia safely with blood thinners? I'd consult a hematologist, but wondering if it's an automatic "no" from plastic surgeons?

it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
