Abstract:
The safety of liposuction surgery begins with appropriate preoperative evaluation and patient selection. Operative considerations include the type of anesthesia used, the volume of fat aspirated, and the liposuction technique utilized. Results from a recent survey revealed that liposuction surgery can be extremely safe when done under local anesthesia with conservative fat removal.
