Synergy in Sculpture: Integrating Liposuction and Energy-Based Technologies Saturday, October 11 Sat, Oct 11 2:00-3:30 p.m. CDT
As patient demand for minimally invasive body contouring continues to rise, the integration of energy-based devices with traditional liposuction has emerged as a powerful approach to enhance outcomes and address skin laxity. This session explores the science and clinical application of technologies such as radiofrequency, ultrasound, and laser-assisted lipolysis. Expert faculty will present technique-driven insights, patient selection criteria, safety protocols, and comparative outcomes. The session will also cover pearls for combining modalities and optimizing procedural planning in both primary and revisional body contouring cases.
Upon completion of this learning activity, participants should be able to:
- Differentiate between various energy-based technologies (e.g., RF, ultrasound, laser) used in conjunction with liposuction, including their mechanisms and indications.
- Evaluate patient selection criteria and clinical scenarios best suited for combined liposuction and energy-assisted body contouring.
- Apply safety protocols and technical strategies to minimize complications and optimize aesthetic outcomes when integrating energy-based devices into surgical workflows.
