Objectives: 1. Fine facial liposuction with the latest small UAL probe. 2. Body liposculpture with both liposuction & fat grafting. 3. Characteristic selectivity on fat tissues by ultrasound cavitation. Introduction: The history of ultrasound-assisted liposuction(UAL) was begun by a famous Italian plastic surgeon, Michael Zochhi, who introduced the brand-new device in the early 1990s'. Though many advantages of UAL, it has not become popular, cause of unwanted complications like skin necrosis and seroma. Now, with the development of technology, the new fine probes make surgery simpler, easier, and safer without many complications. Materials / method: The surgery of liposuction would be hard for surgeons by the labor and concentrations that need during the surgery. The ultrasound cavitation devices would be helpful to disrupt the fat tissues more selectively by preserving normal tissues around them. The high-definition lipo-sculpturing surgery would be possible by those devices more effectively for liposuction and fat grafting. Moreover, the latest fine probes will make the small liposuction of the face like jowl, cheek, and zygomatic areas. Results: Those who enjoyed the fine liposuction of the face reported the subtle changes of the face were very pleasing without loosening of skin. Also, body contouring surgery by the UAL and fat grafting procedures together would be promising for men's high-definition sculpturing and breast fat grafting for women. Conclusion: It was made possible to suck out small accumulations of superficial fat on the face by the fine probe of UAL, and it can be done under local anesthesia. Liposuction and fat grafting in one surgery would be another advantage of the UAL device with good outcomes.
