If you have medical issues like type two diabetes, would that prevent a doctor from doing the belly fat surgery?

Thank you for your question. I think it depends on how well-controlled your medical conditions are. Procedures such as liposuction that are relatively noninvasive (that is, very small incisions and can be performed without general anesthesia) can be done safely in patients with Type II diabetes. But, you have to be under tight blood sugar control, and demonstrate that over a period of time using the hemoglobin A1C measurements. If you require insulin, I would avoid any unnecessary surgery. If you are well-controlled by diet and oral medications, you may be a candidate. I'd meet with a local plastic surgeon for advice on your case. Best wishes.

As long as your sugars are controlled, laser lipo under local anesthesia is very safe.   You should have no problems as long as you receive medical clearance.
