There is an increasing demand for surgical correction of the body contour in the modern society. We present a summary of the indications and techniques of the most important interventions on the abdomen, hip, thigh and arm. The operations aim at the correction of localized excesses of fat and skin tissue with liposuction and dermolipectomy. Liposuction is performed through small skin incisions, which results in minimal scar formation; and which is associated with minimal complication rates. The indication for liposuction is restricted to the conditions in which the overlying skin is capable to retract and adapt itself to the new contour. Otherwise, or if an excess of skin is the cause of the deformity, a dermolipectomy is required. In this case, the incisions are chosen in a way that the resulting scar may be hidden as well as possible.
在现代社会，对外科手术矫正身体轮廓的需求日益增加。我们总结了针对腹部、臀部、大腿和手臂的最重要干预措施的适应症和技术。这些手术旨在通过抽脂术和皮肤切除术矫正局部多余的脂肪和皮肤组织。抽脂术通过微小的皮肤切口进行，形成的疤痕极小；且并发症发生率极低。抽脂术的适应症仅限于覆盖皮肤能够回缩并适应新轮廓的情况。否则，或者如果皮肤过多是畸形的原因，则需要进行皮肤切除术。在这种情况下，切口的选择应尽可能隐藏 resulting scar。 （注：原文中“resulting scar”这里表述有误，应该是“ resulting scars”，但按照要求不做修改直接翻译）
