New liposuction technologies like power, ultrasound, and laser-assisted devices enhance body sculpting efficiency. Chemical lipolysis (mesotherapy) also presents a potential alternative for localized fat reduction.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Dermatology
  • Aesthetic Medicine

Background:

  • Suction-assisted liposuction is the traditional body sculpting method.
  • Newer technologies aim to improve liposuction efficiency and safety.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent advancements in liposuction technologies.
  • To evaluate the supporting literature for these new methods.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on power-, ultrasound-, and laser-assisted liposuction.
  • Discussion of chemical lipolysis (mesotherapy/lipodissolve) as a non-surgical alternative.

Main Results:

  • Power-, ultrasound-, and laser-assisted liposuction are effective adjuncts for large volumes and fibrous tissues.
