Revised technique for cellulite fat reduction in riding breeches deformity.

Bull. Int. Acad. Cosmetic Surg., 2, 40-43, 1977.

This father-and-son team of Italian gynecologists invented a technique that used a small, rotating scalpel inside a thin, hollow metal cannula inserted through small incisions in the body.
