Can your lungs be punctured during lipo?

Hi.  That would be extremely uncommon and unusual, but yes, it could happen.  That is a great question, though, that highlights the importance of selecting a surgeon with very good training and experience in this type of surgery.  There is actually a lot that could go wrong if the surgeon is careless or only has marginal or poor training with anatomy and surgical technique.  Liposuction is a procedure that can be performed quite safely with nice results when done properly and with good patient selection.  I would recommend consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon with good experience performing liposuction.  Good luck and take care,Dr. Howell

No, this is unlikely to occur during liposuction, but with any type of surgery, complications can occur. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. For best results with liposuction, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF/J Plasma/Renuvion/InMode BodyTite and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result.  Best, Dr. Emer
