What is considered high volume liposuction, and what areas of the body are the safest to preform it on? It appears some doctors do preform high volume lipo with much success

Answer: High Volume Liposuction While high volume liposuction is traditionally defined as 5 liters of fat aspirate, that number actually varies based on the height and weight of the patient. The key question about the definition of high volume liposuction is when does it cause major fluid shifts in the body and induce enough trauma that one needs to be better monitored and medically managed after the procedure. That definition revolves around patient safety.
