In the EU, is there a maximum amount of fat that can be removed through lipo for a patient who is not 'overweight'?

Safety first - the amount of total fluid (fat and body fluid)that can be removed safely depends on many things but generally speaking should not exceed 5 liters. Removed fat can be moved to areas where more fat is desirable. BodyTite is a procedure where the fat is removed and skin is tightened. I have been performing BodyTite Liposuction for over 7 years and it is a great technique for fat removal as well as skin tightening.Please make sure that you see an experienced doctor for a thorough consultation and assessment prior to undergoing any treatments.Best regards and I hope this helps, Dr. Sapijaszko (Fellow, American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery)

Thanks for your question. While you can liposuction several areas at once there is a limit to how much fat can be removed safely. Risks from liposuction increase significantly when over 5 liters of fat are suctioned out. We usually stay below this limit for patient safety. We’ve found that we’re able to achieve dramatic improvements for our patients with 2 to 4 liters of liposuction, depending on their needs.

 I appreciate your concern, however when considering any elective cosmetic procedure, your safety should be the first priority! Most board-certified plastic surgeons would not consider removing more than 4-5 L of fat in one outpatient setting for safety purposes. It appears from your photos that you should fall well below that number. Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon for safety reasons and to increase your chances of the best possible result. Good luck.

Hello dear!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
Based on your pictures, you are a good candidate for standard liposuction, to improve your abdomen, back and flanks, and I think you'll get very good results. The maximum amount of fat that can be taken from a patient es 5L.
In general, you need to be physically healthy and at a stable weight, have realistic expectations, be a non-smoker and your BMI needs to be 30 or less.
I recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.
Good luck :)
