Benefits of Tumescent Liposuction
Tumescent liposuction is basically a safer alternative to standard liposuction, which tends to be more extensive and invasive. Therefore, it is suitable for those who want to remove a small amount of fat. While traditional liposuction removes between 8 and 10 liters of fat, the tumescent approach removes around 3 to 5 liters. As a result, it also requires a shorter time for recovery. Another benefit of this procedure is the reduced risk of bleeding thanks to the use of adrenaline in the injected solution. In addition, using lidocaine rather than general anesthesia would help lower the risk of associated side effects. These include sore throat, hypothermia, muscle aches, vomiting, nausea, delirium, or headaches. [2]
