I am a female, age 53. I am scheduled to have liposuction on my back and flanks. I had a stroke a little over four years ago. Is this a safe procedure for me?
Answer: VASER HI DEF 4D LIPO / 360 Degree Sculpture / Body Contouring / HD Sculpting With Fat Transfer and Tummy Tuck / Mommy Makeover All of my patients get cardiac clearance before surgery, you should do the same. If you are medically cleared for surgery you shuld be fine. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Liposuction Risks Lareau8. While liposuction has a long lasting safety record when performed by board certified Plastic Surgeons, extra precautions should be taken in your case. Medical clearance must be obtained prior to your surgery and your plastic surgeon should work in conjunction with your medical doctor. Best of luck.

Answer: Stroke and liposuction. Is it a safe procedure for me? You would have to be cleared by your neurologist first before undergoing the surgery. You should also be examined first to make sure you are healthy and stable before liposuction. For as long as you have passed the pre-op evaluation, a liposuction procedure will be safe for you.
