Is SmartLipo Safe for Women Who Still Want to Have Children?

Prospective candidate
I am 27 years old and have not yet any children. However, I am thinking about having smartlipo done but was wondering what the implications were if I were to fall pregnant after the procedure? Would the weight gained during pregnancy be distributed elsewhere, disproportionately, as is the case with traditional liposuction?
