I recommend seeking an evaluation from an expert in the field. The person performing your fibroid treatment may not necessarily be the most qualified to perform liposuction, in my opinion. It is best to have these procedures done separately. Best regards, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your question regarding liposuction. Yes, if your fibroids are not causing issues like bleeding, you can undergo liposuction. The safety of travel post-surgery depends on factors like the duration of the flight, the extent of the procedure, and your overall health. For a minor to moderate liposuction procedure, it might be reasonable to travel after 48 hours. Always ensure you consult with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon. Best wishes

Liposuction is a superficial procedure performed above the muscle layer, while uterine fibroids are internal. Unless there are bleeding issues or other concerns related to the fibroids, it is unlikely to be a problem to undergo liposuction. However, it's advisable to consult with a medical professional. .
