abstract：:Suction lipectomy was initially advocated for the treatment of localized collections of fat and for the removal of less than 1500 ml of material. However, many patients wished to have multiple areas treated or had diffuse collections of fat. In such instances, the removal of over 1500 ml of material and circumferentia...
