I'm interested in high volume Liposuction while losing weight. Is this procedure possible for me? (photos)

Question

Hi I'm interested in getting high volume liposuction.I weigh 345 down from 360 im in the process of losing weight naturally the problem is Im not losing belly fat.I want the lipo to help remove fat specifically from my belly and back areas for a better shape and more balanced proportions while I'm losing weight kinda like a jump start. Weight loss is not my expectation. I want the lipo only to help with my problem areas I don't expect to leave looking like beyonce. Just want some of It gone .

Whereas very heavy patients are not the ideal candidate for liposuction the procedure can assist in the overall weight loss and body contour regimen.

Liposuction is not going to help you at this point.  You really  need to go on a diet and exercise program to get down to a more healthy weight. Best of luck.

High volume liposuction is around 5 Liters of fat removal. This procedure, which involves the front and the back, would take 3 hours to perform. The total cost is $8000 including board certified professional fee, board certified anesthesia fee, and Medicare Approved surgicenter fee. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your question.  You have a high BMI and liposuction will not give you a good outcome at this point.  You need to lose weight so that your BMI is below 35 and then liposuction or more likely body contouring will give you a much better result.
