Numerous surgical techniques exist for gynaecomastia treatment. Although ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL) is thought to be more effective than conventional liposuction, to date there remains no objective and direct comparison of the two modalities. Hence, a comparative study was performed of a single surgeon’s experience over 13 years using two definitive parameters, namely intraoperative conversion to open excision and postoperative revisional surgery rates.
