A member asked:

Can you have ivf and twins if you get abdominal liposuction?

Sure!: I assume you mean you have had liposuction in the past. You can have ivf and twins even if you have had a previous tummy tuck, but you may have more abdominal wall damage with multiple babies. Liposuction preserves the normal musculature and the entire skin of your abdomen; the intra-fat scarring is minimal and will have no effect on your pregnancy. Good luck!

Yes: If you have had previous abdominal liposuction, there is no problem with having ivf done. These procedures would not interfere whatsoever.

Yes: Yes, previos liposuctioning surgery should not interfere with in vitro fertilization/pregnancies; best to have body contouring surgery however after completion of pregnancies if possible.
