Liposuction may be reasonable, but a physical exam would be necessary to make this determination.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

If one leg is longer than another that can be corrected by removing a portion of the bone of the longer leg, but you would need to consult a board certified orthopaedic surgeon for that.Hope that helps!

Liposuction is best performed on focal trouble areas for patients who are of normal body weight, or are only modestly overweight. Unfortunately patients who are significantly overweight are unlikely to see a major improvement in their overall body contour.
In general the answer is yes. I have treated patients with a lap band but try to avoid the region directly around the port so not to disrupt it. Best of luck.
