Liposuction and anesthesia.

Dermatologists have been performing liposuction surgery safely since it was first introduced in the United States. Dermatologic surgeons have been in the forefront of development of new machines and cannulas and have safely adapted the procedure to an office surgical setting. They have made important contributions with the introduction of high volume dilute lidocaine/epinephrine solutions for local infiltration, in many cases using these solutions as the only anesthesia. The safety record for dermatologic surgeons performing liposuction has been excellent.

Liposuction surgery of the lateral thigh.

We report our experience in 50 patients who underwent liposuction surgery of the lateral thighs with or without concomitant liposuction surgery of the hip and buttock areas. This procedure has proven to be a remarkably safe and effective method for removal of fat in properly selected individuals. The operation avoids the problems of blood loss and scarring associated with other operations used to remove fat and makes for extremely satisfied patients.

Liposuction surgery and autologous fat transplantation.

Since the importation of liposuction surgery into the United States more than a decade ago, we have witnessed a number of major technique changes and practice trends occur. One of us (L.M.F.) was the first dermatologic surgeon to undergo the "lipsuction experience" (Paris, 1977) under the tutelage of Giorgio and Arpad Fisher and Pierre Fournier, and another (R.S.N.) the first to undergo training with Yves Illouz (also Paris). All three co-workers have served on teaching faculties of both the International and American Societies for Dermatologic Surgery, the American Society of Liposuction Surgery, and the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, have performed many hundreds of procedures, and have lectured/published on this subject on repeated occasions. We recognize certain vital changes and expansions have occurred during the past decade, and share our impressions of these with you.
