Liposuction and cardiomyopathy hypertrophic?

Question

I have mild cardiomyopathy and I was told that I can’t have liposuction neither general or local anesthesia and even if I get clearance from my cardiologist. Is my condition that serious to where it’s so dangerous to get Lipo?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

You would need to be cleared by your cardiologist. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF 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

No intelligent plastic surgeon should tell you liposuction is OK with cardiomyopathy unless your cardiologist has given you the OK for the procedure. Once that clearance has been obtained you will be able to find a plastic surgeon to help you. Make sure a board certified anesthesiologist is in attendance for the procedure.
