**3.1 Patient positioning**

• Patient should be placed in supine position on the operation table. After the patient is taken to the surgery room, the preoperative surgical marking should be checked one more time. Arms should be freely positioned to facilitate arm movement during liposuction procedure. If circumferential liposuction is planned, the arm should be considered into 3 units as medial, lateral and posterior and liposuction needs to be performed in a sequential order.
