During Liposuction, how do they accurately measure the amount of fat removed? (photos)

I'm looking to have a BBL done in Florida in the near future. I have a larger tummy, and my back side is like a board! My bum needs every ounce of fat it can get, so I am concerned about the state having a limit of only four liters of fat removed at one time. How is the fat accurately measured, when it is coming out with all that tumescent fluid and whatever else is being sucked out with it? Thank you. (Photo)
