Is it possible to get liposuction if you have gallstones or gallbladder problems?

Yes, as long as you are cleared by your Doctor, you may have liposuction if you have gallstones. For best results, 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

Thank you for your question.
Yes, it is possible to have Liposuction if you have or have had gallstones or other gall bladder problems that do not need surgery by themselves. If, however, you need surgical treatment for your gall bladder problems you should have that taken care of first. All The Best !

The liposuction could be performed with medical clearance. However, I would address the gallbladder problems first; and if a cholecystectomy is required, wait 6 weeks to 3 months to have the liposuction performed.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

It is possible to have liposuction, and other elective cosmetic procedures, if you have gallstones, but we want to make sure that you are not having any active issues such as pain or inflammation of the gallbladder. As with all medical conditions, it is essential that they are optimally treated to avoid complications from elective cosmetic surgery.

Hi, Thank you for your post. Yes you can have liposuction with other underlying issues, however, I would make sure that you get medical clearance prior to having an elective procedure done to make sure that there are no complications during surgery. Good luck!

Yes it is possible to have liposuction when you have other medical issues, that being said , we would likely have you get a medical clearance before surgery to make sure you are all set for a safe outcome

Liposuction does not affect what's inside the abdomen (such as gallstones), so as long as you are healthy, there's little connection in my experience. 

I would say if you have gall bladder issues, you are best to get that resolved first before undergoing an elective procedure.

I would recommend getting medical clearance before moving forward with cosmetic surgery. Keep in mind that for best results with liposuction, high definition liposuction is key. It should involve three important elements to comprehensively remove the fat from the area: VASER technology, PowerX liposuction cannulas, and Cool Helium Plasma skin tightening, especially if there are areas of excess skin redundancy.
