I am 34 years old and doing what I can to get healthier and lose some weight. I don't want to get gastric bypass/sleeve or band. I do plan to have kids in the future. What are my options? Are there other doctors who would do lip suction at my BMI?

Thank you for your question. It is hard to provided with a valid medical opinion without photos. I would suggest to be treated by board certificated plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.
