"Ultrasonic Liposuction is a new procedure where an ultrasound is used to help guide in the removal and liquidation of fat cells. It is more efficient at removing the fat(aka adipose tissue) than traditional methods. The problem is that any liposuction can cause dimpling of the skin long after the procedure. The side effects are the same for all liposuction, but no specific long-term studies are found due to this being a fairly new procedure."

OUTTAKE FROM "COMPLICATIONS OF LIPOSUCTION" (The "Complications of Liposuction" is a document that is recognized as "an important document" in the field of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. It was written as a follow-up to the "Guidelines of Care" Liposuction.) Here are out-takes from section 2 and section 4.1.7 of the document: Section 2 Evolution of Liposuction ~ Since the introduction of liposuction techniques in 1982 the management of adipose tissue for aesthetic and reconstructive purposes had undergone a significant change. [3] The introduction of new techniques such as wet, super-wet and tumescent suction assisted liposuction (SAL), [4, 5] as well as the development of new technologies such as power-assisted liposuction (PAL), ultrasound assisted liposuction (UAL) and laser assisted liposuction (LAL), broaden the possibilities within the field. The advent of new techniques and technologies is not free of complications and each of these developments has been associated with a subgroup of problems that should not be overlooked. Care should be taken when using power assisted cannulas and even ultrasonic or laser technologies since the tissue resistance changes making easier the penetration of undesired structures. "Both power assisted and ultrasonic liposuction are designed to make the work of the surgeon easier. Although I helped to develop the most popular powered liposuction instrument, I no longer use this technique. I also abandoned ultrasonic liposuction a long time ago. After 27 years of performing liposuction, I feel I am getting the best results ever using manual liposuction. Using very small instruments, I can definitely sculpt more precisely. And if I have to work harder, it is worth it to give my patients better results." ~ Dr. William Coleman III. When one learns the biology of fat and understands that any form of adipose removal causes long-term health and contour problems, the question may change from, "What kind should I get?," to "Why would I want to do something that will at best be temporary and cause me so many problems that do not have any solution?"
