The SAFELipo technique allows for safe, consistent liposuction that does not damage flap blood supply and is easily taught to, and reproducible by, other surgeons. The fat separation used in the SAFELipo technique is performed without suction, which prevents suction avulsion injury to blood vessels by the cannula. Blood vessels then remain intact while free, separated fat is aspirated with small diameter cannulas.

High-Volume Drainless Lipoabdominoplasty with Progressive Tension Sutures: UK Experience.
Plast Reconstr Surg
December 2024
From The Plastic Surgery Group.
Background: Lipoabdominoplasty is an established technique, but outcomes of high lipoaspirate volumes in large series are lacking. The authors present the UK experience of high-volume, drainless lipoabdominoplasty using progressive deep tension sutures.
Methods: A total of 286 consecutive patients at a single center underwent drainless lipoabdominoplasty with a lipoaspirate volume of 500 mL or greater between 2017 and 2023.
Expansion Vibration Lipofilling: A New Technique in Large-Volume Fat Transplantation.
Plast Reconstr Surg
May 2018
Boston, Mass.; and Shreveport, La.
Background: Despite rapid growth, gluteal fat transplantation is an operation in search of science and a teachable technique. Long operating times, tedious syringe transfers, inability to shape the recipient site, and the risk of fat embolism all headline as impediments to clinical adoption of the procedure. Expansion vibration lipofilling is a syringe-free surgical strategy that is a logical extension of Separation, Aspiration, and Fat Equalization (SAFELipo).
