 I am dealing with the sagging skin and want to look into some liposuction in some areas of my body. Not looking for Skin removal.Has anyone had some Liposuction done post op? if so what did you do for prepping? Did you start by asking your wls surgeon who he would recommend? Did you start doing your own research? Please tell me your story, how you went about it and the details so I can get started. I am also concerned if it would be safe being a heart patient.thanks for taking the time for giving me your input on this subject. Wendy

Liposuction will make your skin sagging worse    It's sometimes a good thing for people who have pockets of fat that won't go IN CONJUNCTION with skin removal but can't imagine having it and leaving all that sag!

A mons lift is quite common. HERE is some information I found online.

Your surgeon is a great source of information for a recommendation.

Be sure you are going to a board-certified plastic surgeon for a consultation and recommendation.  The lipo to the mons is done often to remove fat, but if you also have loose or sagging skin there, then a mons lift might be what is needed. 

During your consultation you can discuss the heart issues and any related risks.
