“Are there health risks involved with liposuction?”
I got some stubborn fat I can't get rid of in my legs and tummy. Are there health risks involved with liposuction?

Hello. The risks are the same as any other surgery, infection and bleeding mainly; however very rare. If not performed properly by a qualified cosmetic or plastic surgeon, there can be asymmetry, rippling, dimpling and other deformities. Make sure you go to a qualified surgeon.

Many liposuction are performed without problems. The greatest challenge for the surgeon in your situation is removing the fat smoothly and symmetrically If you are a safe surgical risk.
Yes
Liposuction is surgery -- all surgery has risks. If you are healthy, then the risks are extremely small -- speak to your doctor and go over all that is involved.
