There are limits: Without pictures, it is very difficult to estimate the "inches" thatj could be reduced. Also some states have a limit in how much can be extracted in one procedure. There are 3 basic types of lipo (tumescent, laser and ultrasound) make sure you discuss the different options and advantages of each one with your plastic surgeon. Lipo can have potential complications so be careful of who and whthat'.
