OBJECTIVE To evaluate an abdominoplasty technique combined with lipectomy and liposuction. METHODS Twenty-five patients were undergoing for the abdominoplasty with lipectomy and liposuction in the same operation procedure. A public incision with W-shape was used for the lower abdominal lipectomy, and the upper abdomen was treated with an electronic liposuction technique. After the operation, each patient was followed up for evaluation of the results. RESULTS All of the patients got good contour of the abdomen without obvious complications. The abdominal perimeter was shrunk form 5 cm to 15 cm with over 3 months follow-ups. CONCLUSIONS The combination of lipectomy and liposuction may be a good and safe method for abdominoplasty. The abdominal flap during the lipectomy could achieve higher survival rate than the traditional technique, due to the less injury on the neurovascular structures sustained by the liposuction procedure.
