Vaser Lipo after vein surgery. How long do I have to wait?

Question

I recently had vein ablation and a month later had varicose veins removed. I now would like to get vaser lipo for my lipedema , how long do I have to wait?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I suggest you consult with a lipedema expert, this likely will need 4-8 weeks healing before liposuction.  RF treatments can help speed up healing so you can start liposuction and/or thigh lifting at the same time. Best, Dr. Emer.

If you want liposuction in the same areas your varicose vein treatments were done then probably waiting months ago. Each plastic surgeon will have their own level of comfort for this so if you haven’t picked a plastic surgeon I suggest doing so. During the consultation your surgeon will tell you what’s appropriate amount of time to wait based on their comfort level. If the varicose vein treatment was done in a different in the typing area and there’s no need to wait at all.
