yes you can have liposuction after hip replacement.You need a formal evaluation by an expert in body shaping and contouring to determine what is best. Traditional liposuction awake and smart liposuction are old methods and do very poorly for tightening skin or significant skin tightening or contouring. Small problem areas can be improved slightly by these methods. The best in body contouring not only removes fat with energy devices like VASER ultrasound but also internally heat the skin with radio-frequency devices such as J PLASMA/RENUVION, InMode BodyTite, ThermiRF to heat the under surface of the skin and tighten it at the same time as fat removal. These combinations are called 4D HIDEF VASER contouring and can only be done by a well . trained body contouring specialist. At the same time fat should be harvested, PRP and stem cells added and injected into muscles or indentations/cellulite to get body shaping and contouring. This is known as a Brazilian butt lift when you inject the fat to the buttock for contouring and lifting, but fat can also be used in areas such as the chest/breast, arms/shoulders, calves and face. Cellulite should also be treated with cellfina, sculptra, subcision and/or fillers such as bellafill, renuva synthetic fat, or sculptra. If skin is very loose before surgery then it will need to be removed such as lower abdominal skin (tummy tuck/abdominoplasty), breast skin (breast lift), arm skin (brachioplasty). Overall you need a full assessment, but simple liposuction alone will not tighten skin and needs a combination of various methods -- fat removal, skin tightening, defining, fat grafting, skin removal -- to get the best in body contouring and body sculpting.

Hello.Great question. You will need a medical clearance from your specialist. Clearance will state you can undergo a cosmetic surgical procedure.
TetajamI appreciate your concern, however as long as you are in good health medically speaking, previous hip replacement surgery should not be a contraindication to liposuction. Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area and discuss your past surgical history in detail. Good luck.
We have fixed so many patients who have this problem but you need to see a doc who does the PAL tum. liposuction to really get the fibrous scar tissue out. It is totally fixable.
Hello. Great question. At 1 week post op you have yet to see your final results. Swelling is normal. It can take up to six month to see your final results. Keep following your surgeon’s post op instructions.
Hello. Great question. At 8 days, you are still early in your recovery process. It is normal to have swelling and bruises. Keep following your surgeon's post op instructions.
