Abstract:
Liposuction is a procedure that permits elimination of localized fat deposits through a small incision that leaves an inconspicuous scar. The principal indications are fat deposits in the gluteocrural area, the hip, and the abdomen. In selected patients, submental and cervical fat pads are also an indication. For the obese patient, the technique should only be employed in combination with dermolipectomy. The author presents his original technique and discusses indications, drawbacks, and unfavorable results.
