Lipoabdominoplasty.

This article describes extensive liposuction with minimal abdominoplasty, a technique developed by the author and colleagues at the Institut Vila-Rovira. The technique represents another step in the evolution of liposuction procedures. Especially for patients with a body mass index of 30 to 35, the procedure is a surgical alternative that preserves the safety of the traditional lipoabdominoplasties.
