I have high blood pressure and I'm very interested in having a Smart Lipo done. There will be any issues with that? I use medication so is under control.

Answer: Smartlipo Hi There Thank you for your question.I have just one thought and that is that high blood pressure does go hand in hand with being overweight.Obviously you are looking for lipo so it begs the question whether you are indeed overweight.In my opinion and according to the manufacturer Smartlipo (or any lipo) is not a brilliant option in someone who is overweight. But if bordering on a BMI of 30 also having elevated BP you must lose weight and put all thoughts of lipo out of your mind.There are special circumstances where it can be used but smartlipo would not be the best option as it is only designed for very small amounts of fat.If not overweight well controlled BP is no contraindication for lipo.I would look at Bodytite as well ....

Answer: As long as your blood pressure is controlled it should be fine to do smartlipo you should take your BP meds the day of your surgery. also wise to get your BP checked by your family dr the week before your surgery. if your BP is well controlled, it should be no problem.david berman md
