Demographic information, medical history, procedure details, time to PAH diagnosis, and corrective surgical intervention details were collected.

A scoping review of all PAH literature published in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science was also conducted.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Four patients diagnosed with PAH after cryolipolysis were identified for inclusion in this study. The calculated incidence of PAH at our center was 0.67%. All patients requested therapy for PAH and subsequently underwent either liposuction, abdominoplasty, or both. The mean duration of in-person follow-up time after final surgical treatment of PAH was 13.8\u2005+\u200519.8 months (range, 2.8-43.5). Fortunately, no patients showed signs of PAH recurrence, and 3 out of 4 patients did not show signs of residual deformity.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Findings from this patient cohort and scoping review provide evidence that although revisions may be required, conventional body contouring methods, not in the armamentarium of non-plastic surgeon practitioners, effectively alleviated PAH.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Level of Evidence: 4<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p\/>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/asj\/sjac219","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,12]],"date-time":"2022-08-12T21:43:20Z","timestamp":1660340600000},"page":"NP763-NP774","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Characteristics and Treatment of Patients Diagnosed With Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia After Cryolipolysis: A Case Series and Scoping Review"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"42","author":[{"given":"Elizabeth A","family":"Cox","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Stanford University , Palo Alto, CA , USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"D Spencer","family":"Nichols","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Division of Plastic, Maxillofacial, and Oral Surgery, Duke University , Durham, NC , USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Joshua E","family":"Riklan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Medicine, University of Florida , Gainesville, FL , USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ariel","family":"Pomputius","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Science Center, George A.
