How many times can one undergo abdominal liposculpture?

Liposculpture is the perfect aesthetic surgery procedure for body remodeling. The most requested areas for modeling is the abdomen, because many people try everything to eliminate localized fat in this part of the body but it is very difficult. 

A very common question is if a liposculpture in the abdomen can be performed more than once, since it may happen that some kind of retouching is needed or that after some time, the patient may gain abdominal fat again and would like to remove it again. 

The abdominal liposculpture can be performed again.

To undergo a liposculpture again you must first recover and wait until the swelling is completely gone. The average recovery time for a next  lipo is from approximately 6 months to 1 year; however, this time is relative, since it depends on each body and the surgeon will evaluate whether a new intervention is recommended.

As for how many times it is possible to perform liposuction on the abdomen, the answer is that there is no set limit. However, these decisions are always taken with the guide of a medical specialist. 

The post-operative recovery process of a liposculpture of the abdomen is quite simple.

The post-operative recovery process of a liposculpture is bearable, since there is little pain and discomfort, and the return to work, as long as it is an office job, can start a few days later. 

Swelling will gradually decrease over the weeks with the help of medication and the use of a compression garment, which is essential for recovery. Keep in mind that each body is different and has its own rate of healing, which means that you have to be patient and have a good attitude.
