What is Tumescent Liposuction?

Out of the various types and techniques available for carrying out liposuction procedures, tumescent liposuction is one that is very popular and very effective. This procedure is one of the recently developed procedures in liposuction arena and is regarded as vivid and safe method.

The word tumescent means bulge or swollen and hence the procedure is aptly called as tumescent liposuction. In the tumescent liposuction procedure the doctor will first administer a local anesthesia in the area from where the fat has to be removed.

The administered medicine will dislodge the fat and make it swell in size thus making the area tumescent meaning bulging or swollen.

Once the fat gets dislodged, the surgeon will draw or suck the fat out through fine steel cannula and the process of fat removal will be done in slow, steady and continuous manner.

The fat removal is easy and fast in this method and hence more and more people have started opting for such procedure than any other available methods.
