Lipoabdominoplasty with Anatomical Definition

There is a continuous search for better technical alternatives for the treatment of abdominal contour deformities in the practice of plastic surgeons. LADE —lipoabdominoplasty (LAP) with anatomical definition—is a step ahead of the traditional LAP technique. This technique incorporated the principles of highlighting the definition of the abdominal musculature, achieving more natural results with fewer reminders of a surgical intervention. The esthe tic results are much harmonious, with a true abdominal rejuvenated appearance. We can reduce morbidity by the preservation of perforating blood vessels and suspension of Scarpa’s fascia. The correct selection of the patient makes the procedure safe and reproducible.
