Most plastic surgeons utilize 'tumescent' technique for liposuction

Most plastic surgeons will utilize a 'tumescent' technique for liposuction. By definition, a 'tumescent' technique indicates that one is infusing roughly 3 cc's of a dilute anesthetic fluid into the subcutaneous/fatty tissues prior to removing 1 cc of fatty tissue. 

Most plastic surgeons will uitlize a 'superwet' technique in reality, which involves injecting 1-1.5 cc of fluid for every 1 cc of fat removed. It is more of a 'marketing' terminology used today. Mostly, every surgeon will utlilize some type of 'tumescent' technique.
