Blunt liposuction cannula dissection with and without suction-assisted lipectomy in reconstructive surgery.

Efforts continue to expand the role of blunt liposuction cannulae in flap elevation and reconstructive surgery. Suction-assisted lipectomy to reduce the actual volume of fat tissue present may allow the further reach and compressibility of mobilized flaps. These instruments find the safest possible plane for continued undermining dissection even at great distances. Applications yet unknown await discovery.
