Objective To investigate the different procedure effects in patients with modified sub-pectoral and subglandular breast augmentation. Methods Patients with modified subpectoral breast aug-mentation (10 cases) and subglandular breast augmentation (10 cases) were randomly selected, and satis-factory surveys to the procedures were conducted in the two groups of patients, including breast touch-feeling, dynamic change, as well as self-feeling and spouse-feeling. Results By the comparison of sub-glandular with subpectoral breast augmentation, touch-feeling was excellent in the former group, with breast spreading out to bilateral side in horizontal position. The breasts had different changes with differ-ent posture and natural movement. Spouse was more satisfactory to the former than the latter group. Conclusion Subglandular breast augmentation has natural shape, dynamic changes and fidelity of the re-al, especially in horizontal position, which is more conformable to the standards of patients and their spouse, and better than subpectoral breast augmentation.

Objective To investigate clinical therapeutic effects after a series of improvements of multi-site combination in the simple obese patient with tumescent liposuction. Methods Before tumescence anesthetization, short-acting benzo-diazepine was used as sedative inducer. The pressure and fluid velocity of short-acting benzodiazepine were regulated and injected into deeper level of fat at first, and all of these actions decreased the pain of patients, and promote the effect of the pain tolerance. The positions of the incisions were selected to hide from view and specifically protected, which could improve looks and decrease the scar formation after operation. In later stage of operation the flaps were pressurized and slid from outside, in order to make the flaps even and smooth and to keep their thickness according to the position of the flaps and the age of the patients. Opened draining was changed to block draining after operation. Results 73 cases were taken the follow-up for 6~24 months. All cases obtained satisfactory results, except that one cases was complicated by scar hypertrophy. The changes of the circumferences were as follows: the decrease of the maximum circumference of thigh was from 2 cm to 17cm, abdomen from 3 cm to 24 cm, and buttocks from 1 cm to 3 cm. Conclusions A series of improvement of key measures enhance the clinical therapeutic effects of multi-site combination in the simple obese patient with tumescent liposuction.
