I am a curvy size 16, hoping to eliminate some problem areas. Is Laser liposuction or Liposculpture an option for my size?

February 27, 2017
Asked By:dwjw33 in Sacramento, CA

Is it possible to completely eliminate my back rolls or because of my size will they only be reduced? Can my lumps on my hips also be eliminated-if so, is this part of my abdomen or does it count as a whole other part of the body? I understand lipo is typically for those closer to their ideal body weight, although I have already lost 40 lbs and enjoy my curvy shape. I just want to reduce and eliminate some areas.
