Answer: Liposuction Without Lidocaine Thank you for your question regarding whether you can liposuction without lidocaine. Yes, it is possible to perform liposuction without lidocaine. However, the procedure will have to be performed under general anesthesia. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic which numbs the tissues during the surgery as well as after the surgery. If you are concerned about lidocaine, the procedure can be performed without lidocaine. The surgery will need some form of anesthesia. You will need general anesthesia if you are not using lidocaine in the local anesthetic. In addition, your post operative requirements for pain medication will be higher than average because of the lack of lidocaine in the fluid. Either way liposuction can be performed without lidocaine in the tumescent solution. I hope this helps to answer your question regarding whether you can liposuction without lidocaine.

Answer: Lidocaine issues I'm curious as to what you are afraid of regarding lidocaine?? Almost ALL present day liposuctions use tumescent fluid which contains: salt water, lidocaine (to reduce pain) and epinephrine (to reduce bleeding). Dr. Taranow

Answer: Do use lidocaine for liposuction Lidocaine is almost always used for liposuction. With the procedure is done using anything less than general anesthesia the patient will need to be anesthetized with local anesthesia and lidocaine is the best drug for that. Even when general anesthesia is used plastic surgeons usually inject tumescent fluid before doing liposuction which contains two drugs, lidocaine and Epinephrine. It’s possible that tumescent solution could be made without lidocaine. Some context to your question might help. Best, My text from MD
