Answer: Amount of fat that can be removed through liposuction The total amount allowed in the U.S. is 5L in a single treatment session. Always choose a board-certified dermatologist with extensive experience in this procedure. An expert provider will ask you to schedule your treatment in two separate sessions if the amount to be taken exceeds that limit to ensure your procedure is both safe and successful.

Answer: Vaser Liposuction and fat removal amount in the US they limit removal to 5L at any given time. this is a recommendation. I suggest you see an expert as the amount of removal depends on the starting size of the patient and the areas treated. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Total volume that can be safely removed Total volume that can be removed safely in an outpatient surgical facility is 5L. For those patients who need more removed, your surgery is performed at a local hospital where we are allowed to remove up to 10 L. This also depends on your starting hemaglobin. In general, we don't routinely need to remove more than 5 L even if you do your arm and abdomen. Please consider a virtual consultation with a VASER specialist.

Answer: Maximum fat removal my understanding is only Florida has a law restricting how much that can be removed in a single session. The American Society of plastic surgeons as published general safety guidelines stating that last and 5000 mL of total aspirate which typically ends up being around 4000 mL of that should be the limit in a single session as an outpatient procedure. And ethical plastic surgeon with treat each area to completion and I ask that you come back for a second procedure if you have more than 5L of fat( actually total aspirate) to be removed. Typically patients over 200 pounds lean towards requiring two sessions of liposuction. Some will do 5000 mL spread over your body and call it a day. Personally that's not how I do these procedures. We sometimes do the second procedure 48 hours later. I perform liposuction with my patients a week using local anesthesia with mild sedation in the office. Based on that it's fairly simple to bring the patient back in a couple of days to do the remaining area. For young healthy people this seems reasonable. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
