What Are the Risks Involved With Liposuction Surgery?
At Plastic Surgery Seattle, we strive daily to reduce our patients’ degree of risk through updated technology, ongoing doctor and staff training, and careful adherence to safety regulations. We take every precaution necessary to make sure each patient is in a safe and sterile environment. Our patients are comforted by Dr. Gottlieb’s skill, experience and professionalism and feel good about entrusting their body contouring expectations to us. Dr. Gottlieb will be happy to discuss any risks involved in this procedure during your cosmetic consultation. Although serious complications following liposuction are rare, possible risks include bleeding, clotting, abnormal body contour, dimples, hematoma, tingling, heavy scarring, permanent numbness and infection.
