BMI Calculator
Body Mass Index (BMI) determines candidacy for cosmetic surgery
Body Mass Index
Body Mass Index (BMI) plays a crucial role in determining candidacy for cosmetic surgery. BMI is a measurement calculated by dividing a person’s weight in kilograms by the square of their height in meters, providing an estimate of body fat based on height and weight.
For the liposuction procedure, a BMI below 30 is generally considered ideal, as it indicates a lower risk of surgical complications and better body contouring results. Liposuction is not intended for significant weight loss but rather for removing fat deposits to enhance body shape. Individuals with a BMI above 42 may face additional considerations or be advised to pursue weight loss before undergoing the procedure to ensure safety and optimal results.

I love this place! The doctor is great and so are the staff. I’ve had lip filler and a facial so far and it looks natural and beautiful!
My Dermatologist asked what I’d done to make my 75 year old skin look so good! It’s PRP! Thank you Dr Mercola!
It was the best experience, Dr. Carlos Mercado is the best surgeon, I really recommend him. I have known him for 15 years and he always said that if one day I have surgery I will do it with Carlos Mercado. Happy, excited, 4 months after my operation, thanks to everyone. the staff the girls are a sweetheart 🙏🙏🙏
Dr Mercado is the only person I let touch my skin. I have gone to him for threads, Botox, and filler. He does a great job with everything. He is the only doctor I would trust in central FL.
The best part of Eterna md is their experience in how to make you comfortable in any treatment you pick. There are many to choose from.
Dr. Mercado is extremely talented in every field of beauty enhancement. But not only is his talent superior from other plastic surgeon s he’s a MD doctor and is very experienced in stem cell applications and anti aging treatments. I highly recommend him.

I booked an appointment for a micro needling with PRP treatment. From the very beginning, I felt very confident that I was in very good hands. Paola drew my blood, and I couldn't even feel the needle! Zuleima was the one doing the treatment. She was very nice and did an awesome job. After 2 days, my skin was glowing and looking radiant. What I noticed the most was how soft my skin felt. I love my results and will be coming back for a second treatment 🙂
My husband, a Plastic Surgeon and member of ISAPS with over 50 years of experience, and I were seeking a doctor who could continue performing my aesthetic procedures. After my husband observed him during surgery and discussed his ability and expertise in performing surgical procedures without general anesthesia, we interviewed several physicians in the Central Florida area. Eventually, we chose Dr. Mercado at Eterna MD, and I achieved excellent results in all the procedures he performed on me.
Dr. Mercado exhibited excellent bedside manners, honesty regarding the risks, benefits, and expectations of the procedures, and a remarkable ability to minimize side effects. His skills were particularly evident during procedures such as liposuction and fat transfer to my face, all done without general anesthesia. Additionally, he performed PDO threads for my face and neck, Dysport, PRP, and filler procedures.
I must emphasize that the results were not only amazing but also exceptionally natural. Dr. Mercado's staff is friendly and creates a comfortable atmosphere. I highly recommend Dr. Carlos Mercado.
