What to expect during your liposuction consultation
The success and safety of liposuction depends very much on your complete candidness during your consultation before surgery. You'll be asked a number of questions about your health, desires and lifestyle.
Be prepared to discuss:
- Why you want liposuction surgery, your expectations and desired outcome
- Medical conditions, drug allergies and medical treatments
- Use of current medications, vitamins, herbal supplements, alcohol, tobacco and drugs
- Previous surgeries
Your plastic surgeon may also:
- Evaluate your general health status and any pre-existing health conditions or risk factors
- Take photographs for your medical record
- Discuss your options and recommend a course of treatment
- Discuss likely outcomes of liposuction and any risks or potential complications
