I am a thin patient who has been recommended liposculpting to fix rippling from lack of breast implant coverage (52kg/163cm). I have no excess fat but the surgeon will take what she can from knees, flanks and inner thigh (i.e.outer thigh and buttocks will be untouched to retain feminine curves). Am I at greater risk of lumps/uneven result vs a curvier woman? My surgeon has showed me some successful liposculpting pics but always larger women.
Answer: Liposuction for skinny women Most people think that liposuction is intended for people with lots of excess fat. This isn’t necessarily true. Yes, Lipo will remove fat, but it is a BODY SHAPING procedure, not a weight loss procedure. This means that the best candidates are people who are in good shape and have a healthy lifestyle, BUT still have some “trouble” areas that do not respond to diet and exercise. So, yes, you can probably benefit from liposuction if you want to shape your waistline or any other area. There isn’t going to be a lot of fat removed, but that’s ok because targeted removal of a small amount of fat from the right places can make a big difference. Make sure to see an experienced board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in liposuction, since your case will take a high level of expertise.

Answer: Liposculpture on a thin patient - am I at greater risk of lumps/uneven results? Excellent question. If lipo is done excessively there is always greater risk of lumps/uneven results, even more so on thin patients. You are thin but your lipo will not be excessive so you have nothing to worry about.

Answer: Liposculpture on a thin patient - am I at greater risk of lumps/uneven results? Hello @trianglesquare, thank you for your question. To make an informed recommendation, more information is needed. Many skinny women choose liposculture because it permits the decrease in an orderly manner of the body volumes to achieve a better silhouette. A consultation is vital to establishing a surgical plan that meets your needs, meets your expectations, and takes into account what is possible. Best wishes!

Answer: Contour irreglarities Contour irregularities are a risk of liposuction. They can occur when too much fat is removed. It can lead to asymmetries, loose skin, and a dimpled look to the treated areas. If you are unsure if you are a good candidate you can visit with other experienced board certified plastic surgeons near you to listen to opinions.
