Tumescent Liposuction
Tumescent Liposuction surgery becomes an option when you exercise, eat right, and have a healthy lifestyle, but still have pockets of fat that you cannot lose.
Under local anesthesia, with a Tumescent liposuction technique, your plastic surgeon can perform liposuction on the abdomen, (tummy or love handles), thighs, hips, buttocks, chest, neck, chin, and arms.
Tumescent Lipo infuses large volumes of saline solution, local anesthesia, and adrenaline into the fatty area to cause swelling. This helps the physician to maneuver a small hand piece called a cannula, connected to a vacuum, just under the skin through tiny incisions. The cannula gently moves under your skin and suctions away the unwanted fatty deposits, leaving behind a body with a sleek contour.
Candidates for liposuction who have a healthy diet, exercise, firm, elastic skin, and localized areas of fat that are resistant to loss have the best result from Liposuction. Clients who are slightly to moderately overweight must understand that liposuction is not a substitute for weight loss. Liposuction can send you on your way to a healthier body that is easy to be proud of.
Tumescent liposuction permanently removes fat cells and improves your body’s contour. Even though it is not a treatment for cellulite, many patients notice an improvement in the appearance of cellulite after liposuction. With healthy eating your fat will not be back.
Success of a liposuction procedure is measured in inches rather than pounds. Tumescent liposuction can be used for high volume fat removal, while other kinds of liposuction like laser lipo are typically used for more localized areas.
