Skinny Women Who Get Liposuction

There is a story about botched surgery for a thin woman (http://www.realself.com/review/smart-lipo-thin-surgery-sacramento) who says never to do lipo when your're only needing small contouring improvements. Do you agree that exercise and diet is a better path? Was her outcome the fault of the procedure or the doctor?.
