A total of 2600 cc of lipodiasolate is obtained." I can't find this anywhere, not even on Google, or in my plastic surgery Stedman's. _________________________ Good grammar ain't easy.

AnnR AnnR Member Registered: 12/31/69 Posts: 18567 Loc: Ocean Park WA	I tried googling lipodialysis and was very frustrated to find that everything seemed to refer to the same article. This may be a different technique than the tumescent liposuction that I remember transcribing so many times. Maybe he just picked up the term from that technique?
