Yes, there can be too much fat for liposuction. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons does not recommend removing more than 10 pounds of fat for the safety of the patient. Removing over 10 pounds is considered high-volume liposuction, which increases the chances of complications from the surgery. We advise patients to be near or at their ideal weight before undergoing liposuction in Oklahoma City.
What is Liposuction?
When diet and exercise don’t work to lose stubborn fat deposits, you can feel like your body contouring goals are unreachable. While we offer both surgical and nonsurgical options for body contouring at Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates, we offer liposuction in Oklahoma City for lasting fat loss.
Our expert surgeons have the skills to remove stubborn fat and maintain a natural-looking slimness. They can expertly remove fat from many areas of the body, including the abdomen, flanks, legs, and more.

What to Expect From Liposuction
Consultation
Before deciding on liposuction, you and your doctor will meet to discuss your concerns and treatment options. They will sit and listen carefully while you talk about the vision you have for your body, and review all your questions to truly understand what you are looking to achieve. Together, you will discuss your options and choose the best procedure for your needs.
Anesthesia
After deciding to undergo liposuction in Oklahoma City, your doctor will discuss what the liposuction process looks like, and discuss with you about including treatments like Renuvion skin tightening. Since we offer both general anesthesia and IV sedation for liposuction, they will help you choose the best option for your procedure.
Procedure
With this procedure, your doctor removes the stubborn fat with a cannula or steel tube, that has a suction device attached to it. Your doctor then inserts the tube into very tiny incisions to minimize pain, scarring, and the risk of infection. Your doctor can treat many parts of the body like the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, arms, face, and neck.
Recovery
Once you are out of surgery, your doctor will review your post-care instructions with you again and provide you with all the knowledge and resources you need to heal at home. Before you go home, they schedule your follow-up appointment so they can check on your progress.
