I went for a consultation. The plastic surgeon has recommended slimlipo on my saddlebags. But said for my 'chunky' legs I should rather do RF 10 sessions. And then on my inner thighs and stomach coolsculpting, 4 sessions. What I'm wondering is why he won't slimlipo my inner thighs and belly at the same time as saddlebags? He mentioned something about soft fat. I'm just worried that slimlipo would yield better results. I was too shy to question his judgment.

Some doctors require this testing as we do in our office for the staff/OR as part of our standard protocol. I suggest full testing prior to liposuction. I treat many HIV positive patients without any concerns. It does not effect the outcome or the treatment. Best, Dr. Emer.
