The First Book on this Exciting New Technique!

Liposuction is the most commonly performed aesthetic surgery procedure in the world. Despite its popularity, the effectiveness of this procedure has been limited in those fibrous areas of the body such as the back, flank, and breasts (in cases of gynecomastia).

Ultrasound-assisted lipoplasty (UAL) permits the selective removal of adipose tissue using ultrasonic energy as an airbrush to sculpt fat with less trauma and enhanced artistry. It is the ideal complement to standard liposuction and a means of optimizing results for a broad spectrum of patients. This technique has captured the imagination of aesthetic surgeons and their patients around the world.

Some of the benefits of UAL include:
  • Higher effectiveness in areas where fat is fibrous and difficult to remove by traditional liposuction and for large-volume liposuction
  • Less surgeon fatigue, allowing the surgeon to focus on true sculpting in body contouring
  • Less tissue trauma because less force is needed to push the cannula through tissue
The authors have taken an anatomic approach to UAL, covering the special needs of each target area. This comprehensive book/DVD combo takes you through UAL step-by-step, including the basics of getting started and the setup of instrumentation and equipment. The large number of illustrations in the book and the high-quality surgical video demonstrations make it easy to follow the procedures closely. Special focus is given to safety and unusual situations.

UAL is a great way to gain incremental income from your practice and to stay competitive. No aesthetic surgeon should be without this valuable book and DVD.

Audience:
This book/DVD combo is a must for plastic surgeons, dermatologists, and otolaryngologists who want to offer their patients the latest and best technique for sculpting difficult areas. It also serves as an excellent educational tool for many of the UAL classes being held around the world, as surgeons rush to learn all they can about this breakthrough in liposuction.

About the Authors:
The three authors work as a team in the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas. Rod J. Rohrich, M.D., is Professor and Chairman; Samuel J. Beran, M.D., and Jeffrey M. Kenkel, M.D., are Assistant Professors. Dr. Rohrich, an internationally known plastic surgeon, is one of the leaders of the task force evaluating UAL. The book also boasts chapter contributions from a number of the pioneers in UAL.
