    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Minimally Invasive Procedures

    Background:

    • Syringe liposculpture, introduced by Fournier, has seen recent advancements.
    • The technique aims to improve ease of use for surgeons.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of syringe liposculpture in reducing patient morbidity.
    • Comparison of syringe versus machine power sources for liposuction.

    Main Methods:

    • Patients undergoing 1200-1500 mL adipose tissue removal were assessed.
    • Evaluation of different infiltration and power source regimens (syringe vs. machine).

    Main Results:

    • Syringe liposculpture resulted in significantly less blood loss.
    • Patients treated with the syringe technique experienced faster healing, quicker return to work, and reduced pain.

    Conclusions:

    • The syringe technique offers considerable advantages in liposculpture.
    • Increased safety factor for patients undergoing liposculpture procedures using the syringe method.
