Different process for 2nd Liposuction after 22 years - will this be an issue?

Asked By:Questionqueen76 in New York

Hi, I had a liposuction of my outer/inner thighs, flanks and knees back in 2000. I have since gained about 10lb (now around 127lb) and interested in liposuction again to contour my outer thighs, flanks and stomach as the weight gain distributed a little funny,. My question is: does the fact that this would be my second liposuction make things more difficult for the surgeon or would he have to use a different process? Or since this was over 20 years ago, its not an issue?
