The 4 numbers that changed liposuction
Peer-reviewed published (Katz, Bruck, Coleman 2001) — and the ALBIN GROUP AG market share as undisputed proof of clinical acceptance.
How does PAL work?
Less force. More control. Better results.
Reciprocation mechanism
- 1Tumescent solution is infiltrated into the fatty tissue
- 2PAL handpiece is connected and activated
- 3Cannula reciprocates at up to 4,000 back-and-forth movements/minute
- 4Mechanical vibration gently releases fat cells from tissue
- 5Released fat is aspirated by negative pressure
- 6Surgeon controls only direction and depth — no force required
Advantages vs. energy technologies
- –No thermal risk — no burns, no tissue necrosis
- –Proven fat cell viability — equivalent to manual SAL
- –Higher stem cell yield than with thermal systems
- –No special sterilization required for energy emitters
- –Better complication profile vs. ultrasound (no seromas)
- –25+ years of long-term safety data — no other system offers this
PAL Synergy — The next generation
The most proven PAL technology, evolved onto a fully integrated platform.
PAL-750 Handpiece
- –2× longer service life than the previous PAL-650 model
- –Split-Arc-Key design — prevents misalignment and twisting
- –Optimised ergonomics — even less fatigue
- –Seamless integration into the new console system
PAL Synergy platform
- –Handpiece + infiltration pump + aspiration pump — fully integrated
- –Independent control of tumescence and aspiration
- –Touchscreen interface: intuitive operation
- –Controls two PAL handpieces simultaneously
- –Only UL-listed liposuction cart on the market
LipoFilter — Fat processing system
Sterile single-use fat processing unit using the gravity-decant method. Ideal for large-volume liposuctions and fat grafting procedures (BBL, facial fat grafting).
Why MicroAire PAL?
Swiss market leader
>70% PAL market share — 7 out of 10 Swiss plastic surgeons trust ALBIN GROUP AG.
35% shorter OR time
Clinically proven: PAL aspirates 31% more volume/minute — direct time savings.
No thermal risk
Purely mechanical — no burns, no tissue necrosis like ultrasound or laser.
Proven fat cell viability
PAL-harvested adipocytes as viable as with manual SAL — ideal for fat grafting.
Higher stem cell yield
PAL generates higher yields of loosely adherent stem cells — improved graft retention.
Precision in fibrous tissue
Reciprocating cannula glides through dense fibrotic tissue — where manual lipo fails.
Swiss precision. Clinical excellence. Measurably better.
Who benefits from PAL?
Surgical indications
- Standard liposuction: abdomen, flanks, back, thighs, arms
- Large-volume liposuction: >1 liter of fat aspirate
- High-Definition Liposuction (HD Lipo): muscle definition
- Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL): fat harvesting + viable fat
- Facial fat grafting: finest harvesting techniques
- Breast fat transfer: natural breast augmentation
- Lipedema treatment: gentle fat removal
- Revision: correction of uneven results
Ideal patient profiles
- Stubborn fat deposits despite diet and exercise
- Large-volume liposuctions
- Fat grafting (BBL, face, breast) planned
- Fibrous tissue (after previous surgeries)
- Minimal downtime desired
- Men and women equally

For patients
The liposuction surgeons prefer.
Gentle, fast, precise — and the quickest recovery.
- PAL removes fat by controlled vibration — minimally traumatic.
- Less swelling, less pain, faster recovery than classic liposuction.
- In some cases, return to light activities as early as 3 days.
- The removed fat is gone — permanently. PAL results are permanent.
- Used by over 10,000 surgeons worldwide as the system of choice.
- In Switzerland: exclusively with your ALBIN GROUP AG partner surgeon.
