Can Liposuction Be Done For Abdominal Swelling After Multiple Surgeries?

8 years ago, I had 4 abd surgeries. 3 were for hernia repair and one was for bowel resection. There was a large mesh put in the abd. This left my abdomen quite a bit larger on the left. Could I have liposuction on that side. I ve lost 30 lbs in the last 4 months. Thank you Sharon
