Ultrashape

Steven Wallach, MD answers: Is Ultrashape as effective as liposuction surgery?

There was a story today at AOL saying you get body slimming results with a procedure involving no surgery: ultrashape.  Is it recommended as a better alternative then liposuction surgery or not?

Ultrashape is a technology employing external ultrasound to perform fat reduction in the subcutaneous plane.  It is not a complete substitute for liposuction because it can not reduce as much as can be removed with surgery.  Besides, it it not yet available in the US.
