Liposculpture with skin resection is a good option for patients who need skin resection in addition to fat aspiration. Excess skin is removed without undermining the fat layer, avoiding the seroma and skin necrosis sometimes associated with combined classic abdominoplasty and lipoplasty.(Aesthetic Surg J 2003;23:125-127).
