Does lipo permanently reduce blood supply to the abdomen?

February 21, 2021
Asked By:Considerate348881 in Sacramento, CA

Hi, I am 29, with BMI of 27 and a waist of 34 inches. and looking to get liposuction. We are looking to get pregnant in 4 years or so. I am really unhappy with the shape of my stomach. If I get large area lipo on my stomach, and then have a C-section with more lipo or a tummy tuck down the road, is this safe? Thanks in advance. Does every surgery reduce blood supply to the area, thus increasing necrosis risk? Thanks!
