Someone who has major medical problems like heart disease, uncontrolled diabetes or cancer. If the patient can achieve a perfectly balanced physique with diet and exercise it is a mistake to do liposuction. Similarly, if someone is very fat and morbidly obese from head to toe, he/she may be a candidate for weight loss surgery with stomach shortening/ banding or stomach ballooning procedure, rather than liposuction. During your consultation, our doctors will determine which procedure is right for you.
