"Liposuction: Principles and Practice" is an up-to-date and all-inclusive overview of all the procedures that are presently being performed worldwide. The contributors to this book present to the cosmetic and plastic surgeon as much valuable information as possible in the techniques and uses of liposuction for cosmetic purposes. In addition broad subjects will peak the surgeon's interest in exploring other uses for liposuction as well. There are still more disorders that may be treated with liposuction that have not yet been explored. The contributors are international so that all common techniques and applications of liposuction are covered. Liposuction is a surgery that is international in origin, in concept, and in usage. There is a need to bring together the international community of physicians to examine, evaluate, and research this technique. All surgeons performing liposuction will benefit from this book.
