Everybody is afraid of a surgery. How much pain does it cause, how much damage. Will the outcome be worth paying the price? This is especially true when it comes to cosmetic surgery, when the operation is done for aesthetic reasons only. Here you want to be sure that the outcome is perfect.

The traditional liposuction uses a needle to literally tear out the fat cells. If you have seen the procedure on TV already then you know already that it looks pretty brutal and it is quite a shock for your body.

That's why many look for less invasive ways of surgical fat removal. One of these ways is so called tumescent liposuction. It is known today as the safest liposuction.

The advantages of tumescent liposuction are clear. Much less blood loss, a much faster recovery time and it just requires a local anesthesia instead of a full one. The procedure allows a fat removal with much less tissue damage and is therefore the number one technique in liposuction today.

So what makes tumescent liposuction so different? The only difference is that a lot of liquid is pumped in the targeted area, about three times of fluid than fat that is going to be removed. The liquid which consists of saline, epinephrine and lidocaine makes the capillaries shrink so that less blood loss is the result.

Once the fluid has caused quite a swelling the fat is removed by the inserted cannula. Since the fluid has caused the swelling, there is much more room now for the needle to do its work.

Once the surgery is finished, you recover more quickly. Usually it just takes less than 4 days to recover enough to go back to work. There is pain of course but it is not that big that it causes troubles.

There is one disadvantage of tumescent liposuction but it is something you can neglect. The surgery takes a little longer than without the fluid because inserting the fluid and removing it slowly after the surgery just takes its time. Beside of that it is the same surgery, just with better results.

There are no special side effects of tumescent beside the ones you experience with any other surgery. These are bruising, swelling, scars, pain or numbness for example. All these effects should go away from alone after a while. There are other complications and your doctor will have a complete list of all possible negative outcomes. However, today liposuction is considered to be very safe.
