I've had Liposuction on my stomach and flanks in May of 2009 and I love the results. I want to do lipo again on my flanks and upper back( right under bra straps) how long should I wait? And is there any risks involving doing Lipo more than once?

Answer: Liposuction revision can be done after 6 months. There should be no problem in doing the work you describe now. Usually I wait 6 months, but there are rare exceptions to this which can alter the time frame.

Answer: Secondary Liposuction As long as you are doing well after your original liposuction procedure, there is not set time that have to wait before having another procedure. In my practice, we generally have patients wait at least six weeks between procedures to allow enough recovery. If you are retreating an area, then I would suggest waiting at least 3 months to allow for the majority of the swelling to resolve and the tissues to settle before re-liposuctioning the areas. Good luck.
