Are Fat Cells Permanently Destroyed with Tumescent Lipo?

                  When
fat is removed during tumescent liposuction the fat cells
are removed permanently.  This
occurs because fat cells in adults don’t have the ability to regenerate.

                  It’s
important to understand that liposuction doesn’t remove all of the fat cells
during treatment.  Under these
circumstances residual fat cells can still be affected by diet and
exercise.  For this reason,
liposuction results are always better when accompanied by life style changes.

Fat cells do not regenerate, so once they are removed during tumescent liposculpture they are gone for good. However, it is important to maintain your weight after liposculpture because if you gain fat again, the remaining fat cells enlarge and may look lumpy. You might also want to look into nonsurgical fat-elimination techniques, such as CoolSculpting, Thermi and Vanquish. Please consult with a board-certified dermatologist to discuss how tumescent liposuction or a noninvasive technique can sculpt your body into the shape you wish, plus learn how to maintain your results after the procedure.

Thank you for your question. Liposuction will physically remove the fat cells. Tumescent liposuction is a solution that fills the fatty layer of the skin and causes it to swell and become firmer, allowing the surgeon to have better control when contouring the area. I hope this helps.
