After vaser liposuction with PAL, how long does it take for all the tumescent fluid to leave the body?
Answer: Tumescent Fluid Is Usually Reabsorbed & Excreted By Kidneys 24-45 Hours Following Liposuction The Tumescent liposuction technique involves infusing fluid into the subcutaneous tissue before proceeding with liposuction. This fluid contains epinephrine and local anesthesia. This helps alleviate post-operative pain and minimizes bleeding during the procedure. In addition, the fluid improves the pressure gradient and allows greater amounts of fat to be removed. In most cases the tumescent fluid is resorbed and excreted by the kidneys in 24 to 45 hours. Despite this, patients may continue to be swollen for 3-4 weeks following this procedure because the body responds to any type of injury by retaining fluid. This phenomena can be minimized with massage, compression, exercise and low salt diets.

Answer: Time for Tumescent Fluid to Leave the Body If you have open drainage (incision sites are 2mm round holes left open to encourage drainage), 90% of the drainage is over in 24 hours. The drainage can persist for up to 3-5 days on average. If it is closed drainage (all of the incisions are sutured), the fluid is trapped under the skin and can persist for 7-14 days.

Answer: 24 hours Some of the fluid is removed at the liposuction. The remaining fluid is absorbed over 24 hours and the excess is excreted in the urine. There is some swelling in the tissues from the surgery which remains for months until complete resolution.

Answer: Tumescent Lipo
When the area heals after tumescent lipo, there can be irregular tissue for months. In 6-8 months, thing should be back to normal, minus the fat. Although some irregularity is expected after lipo if an aggressive procedure is performed. Micro-tumescent needs to be defined by the one advertising the procedure as the tumescent name is general at best. Thank you for your question and good luck with everything.

Answer: Tumescent solution disappears over 24-48 hrs but swelling also kicks in at same time. The tumescent solution is a combination of fluid plus local anesthetics and epineprhine. Studies have shown that most of the local anesthetics are absorbed by 18-24 hours. However, at the same time the injjury of liposuction causes your own body fluids to pool in the area. Similar to the reasons why your lip swells when you get punched. So, as the tumescent fluid is being absorbed, your bodies inflammatory process causes swelling which contributes to the drainage observed. This reaches a maximum at 48-72 hours.
