title: [Pitfalls in liposuction].
abstract: Liposuction is an easy to learn technique that suits as an outpatient procedure. Tight budgets have led to a widespread and sometimes uncritical use. The possible mistakes and dangers in patient selection, informed consent, pre- and post-OP management are discussed. Other points are the monitoring and the proper use of compression bandages.
