Liposuction

Liposuction, like any surgical procedure, has inherent risks. Proper patient selection, careful medical records, imaging, consent, information, anesthesiologist, preoperative evaluation and standardized surgical technique, strict evaluation, replacement fluid, including lidocaine, infiltration, trans. and postoperative control factors, are helping to reduce complications related to liposuction. Liposuction performed for aesthetic procedures aims to remove fat in healthy patients and reduce the accumulation of localized fat, known as lipodystrophy, leading to an improvement in body contour. Over the last three decades, liposuction has been perfected, but like any other surgical procedure, it is not without its complications. The aim of this study is to carry out a literature review using Pubmed, identifying complications after liposuction and their prevention.
