Butt lift and tumescent solution and liposuction

Tumescent and the machine used to harvest the fat are two different things. Tumescent is a fluid that is injected into the fat prior to liposuction. It contains several medications (epinephrine and lidocaine) to decrease bleeding and control pain.

Most surgeons use tumescent solution because it decreases the amount of blood that is lost during the liposuction... more

Tumescent Lipo
