Tumescent liposuction is a minimally invasive body-contouring procedure designed to permanently remove stubborn pockets of fat and create a smoother, more sculpted shape. Unlike traditional liposuction performed under general anesthesia, tumescent liposuction is performed while you are awake using local anesthesia, allowing for a more comfortable procedure without the risks and extended recovery associated with general anesthesia.

During treatment, a specialized numbing solution is gently infused into the treatment area to provide anesthesia, minimize bleeding, and prepare the fat for removal. A small cannula is then used to precisely remove unwanted fat and contour the area. Because the fat cells that are removed do not grow back, results can be long-lasting when you maintain a stable weight.

Tumescent liposuction can be an excellent option for areas such as the abdomen, flanks/love handles, back, arms, thighs, and other localized areas of stubborn fat that haven't responded the way you'd like to diet, exercise, or weight loss.

At SKYN, your consultation includes an evaluation of your areas of concern, discussion of your goals, and a personalized recommendation to determine whether tumescent liposuction is right for you.
