Why do patients have burns after lipo?

December 9, 2013
Asked By:Gotabooty in Orland Park, IL

I've seen many patients very badly burned lately after lipo. Why is it happening? I am talking about burns happening here in the US not other countries. Is equipment or aggressive lipo. Those burns i've seen them happening from many of the experienced doctors so experience was not the issue. Many of those burns required skin grafting afterwards.
