Should tumescence be greater than lipospirate? (Photo)

Mdee1982
Hello! I had lipo to my flanks and "lateral thighs". Not much change to either area post op. I read through surgical center report and would like 2nd opinion. If i requested "saddle bag" lipo, is that the same as lateral? Saddle bags are not directly side of thigh. Second, in my report, the same exact amt of tumescence was introduced as was obtained of lipoaspirate. To me, that sounds like nothing addtl was removed. Is that correct?
