ABSTRACT

Liposhifting is a lipotransference technique carried out in a close way with specially designed instruments. It replaces lipofilling and foreign body fillers. It corrects irregularities due to hyperresection after liposuction. This procedure is accomplished in six steps: marking, tumescent infiltration, tunnelling of the reception zone, internal mobilization of fat and differential compression.
A comparative study of fat cell activity, where cells obtained by liposhifting presented the highest lipolytic activity after stimulation compared to other samples that showed higher effectiveness rates, was performed.
