What is the difference between Liposuction Liposculpture and Lipoaspiration?

Liposuction and Liposculpture are quasi synonyms, although they do have some differences as shown below.

· Liposuction: is the removal of medium to large amounts of contour fat to reduce the peaks and mounds that portray a heavy and sloppy appearance. These include areas such as below the chin, upper arms, outer breasts, lower abdomen, flanks, hips, and thighs.

· Liposculpture: is the removal of small to medium amounts of fat in rather normal to full areas to sharpen features, accentuate the muscles beneath and create a more cut appearance in the neck, lower cheeks, upper abdomen, outer buttocks, calves, and ankles. Some plastic surgeons refer to Liposculpture when the fat removed its use to refill sunken areas (Lipofilling or Lipostructure), to obtain a global remodeling of the areas to be treated.
