Cutaneous hyperpigmentation caused by liposuction.
A wide range of sequels have been described as derived from a bad technique or a bad indication of liposuction. We present the cases of three patients who underwent a syringe liposuction of hips and lower limbs and had cutaneous hyperpigmentation as a sequel in the treated zone. We review the ethiopatogenic circumstances and their evolution.
