The risks are the same as those in traditional lipo although the use of local anesthetic has reduced them considerably. The procedure will help to get a desired shape and boost confidence.

The anesthetic in the solution combined with sedation provides sufficient comfort during the procedure of Tumescent liposuction. For some patients, general anesthesia might be the best option while its possible that the tumescent solution itself may serve as the sole means of anesthesia.

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.

Complications are very rare in Tumescent liposuction which may include pulmonary edema the collection of fluid in the lungs if too much fluid is administered; and lidocaine (local anesthesia) toxicity if the solutions lidocaine content is too high.

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.
