title: Lipoplasty of the iliac crest and lateral femorals.
abstract: The iliac crest and the lateral femoral areas represent the most commonly requested sites for improvement in the lipoplasty surgeon's practice. I have presented a brief discussion of nomenclature, for the sake of establishing common anatomic ground, and have described the procedure as it has evolved in my hands. It is my hope that in this way, I may provide a way to promote better understanding and improve results in these sites.
