The authors describe clinical results of the laser liposuction procedure using the MultiPlex technology. They give acomparative quantitative assessment of the effect of laser and tumenescent liposuction on skin retraction and turgor bythe example of three patients. Processing local fat deposits by laser emission resulted in the increased skin turgor andelasticity in the liposuction area in all subjects, and skin retraction and higher skin elasticity were more evident than withthe use of the traditional liposuction method.
