Introduction. Modern options of plastic surgery tend to improve clinical outcomes, introduce minimally invasive methods, increase the quality cosmetic effect, provide long-term preservation and use most efficient safe procedures. In this paper, authors reviewed main for performing liposuction as a stage abdominoplasty. The aim research was study outcomes abdominoplasties combined with performed...

Nonthrombotic pulmonary embolism is an uncommon life-threatening complication following liposuction. We report a rare incidental autopsy finding associated with this procedure. A 43-year-old female who underwent liposuction presented hypotension, respiratory distress, loss of consciousness and cardiorespiratory arrest during the intraoperative period. The patient died 2 h after admission to eme...

BACKGROUND Liposuction is a surgical technique to remove excess fat deposits from specific areas of the body. Purpose of this study is to determine how far large volume liposuction is safe and effective. METHODOLOGY From July 2003 to December 2005, 60 female patients had liposuction of different areas of the body as waist, hips, buttocks, thighs, and knees. Their mean age was 30.6 +/- 15.4 ye...

Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have recently become a focus of regenerative medicine, both for their multilineage differentiation capacity and their excretion of proregenerative cytokines. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) are of particular interest because of their abundance in fat tissue and the ease of harvest via liposuction. However, little is known about the impact of dif...

The tumescent technique, developed by dermatologists, has revolutionized the approach to liposuction. It has eliminated concerns about blood loss, fluid replacement and fluid shifts, and the risks and morbidity of general anesthesia. It has also significantly decreased the cost of liposuction by eliminating the need for general anesthesia, an anesthesiologist, a hospital or outpatient operating...

BACKGROUND Liposuction can remove a substantial amount of body fat. We investigated the effects of liposuction of large volumes of fat on anthropometrics, body composition (BIA), metabolic hormones, and psychological measures in overweight/obese women. To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine both physiological and psychological changes following liposuction of large volumes of fat ...

BACKGROUND Abdominoplasty and liposuction have traditionally been separate procedures. The authors performed a retrospective cohort study to evaluate the outcomes of a novel single-stage approach combining extensive lipoplasty with a modified transverse abdominoplasty. METHODS One hundred fourteen patients were evaluated for abdominal contouring. Patients were categorized into four groups: gr...
