Abstract
Radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) recently gained popularity for non-excisional skin tightening. It involves the delivery of a controlled amount of energy resulting in fat liquefaction and skin contraction. It is regarded as safe and effective. We report the case of upper airway obstruction following RFAL of the neck and lower face.
