Liposuction: Liposuction is not a weight reduction operation, but a body contouring surgery. You should see a board certified plastic surgeon to go over your options.

Yes: If your goal is to reshape the distribution of fat, liposuction may be helpful within limits. Liposuction is not a method of weight loss, and is not effective toward this end.

No.: No, i would not consider someone who is “fat” a good candidate for liposuction surgery. Generally speaking, the “ideal” candidate for liposuction surgery is a healthy person with localized diet and exercise resistant adipose tissue with good quality overlying skin elasticity.
