About 1.5 years ago I weighed 315lbs , thankfully today I have made some progress and am down to 195lbs. Unfortunately with the weight-loss also come other discoveries. I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis and also have HS. I am 34, new to this and am taking a chance against the odds. I am in the beginning phases of researching and want to ensure I make the right decision...for me it's not about materialist things or looks , it is about being able to be healthy and try to live. Ty!

Answer: Liposuction & Psoriatic Arthritis-Body Contouring, Diet, Exercise, Surgery, VASER HI DEF 4D Liposculpture, Tummy Tuck This should be fine, but keep in mind, for best results, it is recommended to be at your ideal or stable weight before getting a sculpting liposuction procedure. Liposuction is for sculpting and defining and removing problem areas that cannot be removed with weight loss and diet / exercise alone. With skin laxity, a tummy tuck or lifting procedure could be performed at the same time as a hi definition procedure. I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Psoriasis or autoimmune conditions are not an absolute contraindication the liposuction. I don't think this is an issue at all. Clearly the specifics of your situation would be discussed with the surgeon prior to proceeding.

Answer: Surgery with autoimmune disease Surgical risk is certainly increased with any autoimmune disease, both from the disease itself and from any treatment you may be on. The key to lowering risk is to have good coordination between your medical and surgical doctors. In most cases procedures can be safely and effectively accomplished with minimal increased risk.

Answer: Weight loss and autoimmune problems When one loses weight but does not detox, chemical toxicity can become a problem. The cause of most autoimmune disease is either chemical toxicity or intracellular infection. I would recommend detoxification of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic chemicals as well as heavy metals to regain your health. Most doctors do not know about this aspect of our health as it is politically incorrect.
