Abstract
Over a period of 12 years, the authors have seen that skin retracts after the judicious treatment of deep and superficial layers of fat tissue, laying to rest what has been one of the biggest fears of this treatment of lipoaspiration, namely cutaneous flaccidity. The adequate and judicious approach to these two layers, along with the increasing use and help of lipo-injection, permits the lessening of irregularities such as undulations and/or depressions.
