The warmed tumescent liquid is a dilute solution containing lidocaine, epinephrine and intravenous fluid which is injected into the area to be treated. As the liquid enters the fatty layer, it becomes swollen, firm and blanched. These firm areas are gently suctioned out completing the tumescent liposuction.

There is no risk in Tumescent liposuction. Risk can be reduced by proper selection of patient, preoperative screening and calculating weight and drug amount and keeping safety margin.

In the tumescent liposuction technique, areas of excess fat are injected with a large amount of anesthetic liquid before liposuction is performed. The liquid causes the compartments of fat to become swollen and firm or Tumesced. The expanded fat compartments allow the Liposuction Cannula to travel smoothly beneath the skin as the fat is removed.

The Tumescent Liposuction Technique is a relatively new liposuction method that can reduce post operative bruising, swelling and pain. Because blood loss is minimized during Tumescent liposuction, use of the technique reduces the chance that a blood transfusion will be needed.
