Newpong Successfully Concludes "The 3rd LIS" Featuring World-Renowned Scholar Dr. Osvaldo Saldanha

Newpong, a medical aesthetic enterprise specializing in ultrasound technology, announced that it successfully hosted "The 3rd LSSA International Live Surgery Seminar (The 3rd LIS with Dr. Saldanha)" on September 20th, followed by the "LSSA Clinical Partner Dinner" on September 22nd, further advancing scientific exchange among leading domestic and international medical professionals.

The seminar, held on September 20th at JeunEx Clinic in Cheongdam-dong, Seoul, drew prominent plastic surgeons from across Asia, including Japan and Taiwan. The keynote speaker, Prof. Dr. Osvaldo Saldanha—past president of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) and the world-renowned pioneer who standardized Lipoabdominoplasty (combining liposuction with abdominoplasty)—shared his peerless clinical insights on high-definition liposuction and advanced body contouring.

Dr. Saldanha’s comprehensive lectures highlighted the critical importance of customized liposuction designs that naturally adapt to the patient's body contour over time. Utilizing video-guided materials, he detailed advanced superficial liposuction techniques, gender-specific anatomical considerations, and enhanced surgical safety protocols.

The practical live surgery session utilizing Newpong’s advanced technology was precisely executed by Dr. Kasey Sung, Medical Director of JeunEx Clinic. Dr. Saldanha observed the entire procedure in real-time inside the operating room, providing frontline clinical pearls and practical precautions. The session cultivated an enriching academic environment through an interactive, real-time Q&A format with the participating Asian surgeons.

The core technology utilized during the live surgery, LSSA, is a minimally invasive ultrasound-assisted liposuction system developed by Newpong. It selectively fractures and emulsifies subcutaneous adipose tissues using ultrasonic energy to facilitate efficient fat removal. Equipped with a versatile range of thin probes spanning 0.9 mm to 3.7 mm in diameter, the device allows surgeons to optimize tools based on specific target zones and surgical scopes. Furthermore, features such as its proprietary Deep Sono Algorithm—which automatically tracks ultrasonic frequencies to maintain stable power outputs—helped it successfully secure US FDA 510(k) clearance in April of this year.

Following the seminar, the "LSSA Clinical Partner Dinner" was hosted on September 22nd at Samwon Garden in Seoul to welcome Professor Osvaldo Saldanha. The exclusive dinner was attended by 11 prominent Korean physicians who utilize the LSSA system in their daily practices. The attendees engaged in a high-level discussion regarding advanced body contouring practices, with a specific focus on evaluating the future impact of anti-obesity medications (GLP-1 receptor agonists) on the liposuction and body-contouring surgical landscape.

The dinner maintained a warm and convivial atmosphere, during which one attendee expressed profound gratitude, sharing how they had previously mastered their liposuction foundations through Dr. Saldanha’s authoritative textbooks. Dr. Saldanha personally greeted each medical partner and participated in individual commemorative photo sessions, strengthening long-term clinical ties.

"This landmark seminar and partner dinner served as an invaluable platform for top-tier domestic and international surgeons to exchange advanced surgical skills, clinical insights, and discuss the future trajectories of body contouring surgery," said an official representative from Newpong. "Moving forward, Newpong remains deeply committed to continuously establishing these high-value academic and network platforms centered around our LSSA technology."
