Study Summary
Liposuction surgery is common, yet animal and limited human data suggest that fat returns when removed. This study was designed as a 1-year randomized-controlled trial of suction lipectomy versus no intervention to determine if adipose tissue is defended, and if so to determine the anatomic pattern of redistribution.
Primary Outcome
Changes in body composition as measured by Dual X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA).
Interventions
- PROCEDURE Standard of Care with Liposuction
- OTHER Standard of Care without Liposuction
