Hello i would like ro know if Lipo PAL is the same Procedure of Traditional liposuction? That fat can be use to transfer to buttock? And if im a fat woman that Lipo Pal can bring me same results as a traditional lipo? Perdón mi pregunta directa es si el tratamiento con lipo PAl succiona la misma cantidad que una lipo tradicional.Si esa grasa que se succiona es buena para ultilizar en buttock lift o la grasa se derrite? Gracias
