How safe and helpful is ultrasound liposuction?

Depends: Ultrasound liposuction does carry a higher rate of a mild side effect of seroma, or fluid collection. It can enhance skin contraction following procedure but may also cause burns. In general, i prefer traditional liposuction, though in skilled hands, us assisted liposuction is an excellent procedure.
