Question about anesthesia fluid injected into body before liposuction?

Thank you for your question. Tumescent fluid has medication in it that can cause a slight burning sensation, but it is usually very mild. Depending on the method to which it is delivered, some patients may not even notice it. For my patients, I give an oral sedative as well as some Demerol before I administer tumescent solution. Our Tickle Liposuction device creates a vibration that helps ease the numbing process as well. Ultimately, it depends on whether you're awake or not. This is an important question to ask your board certified plastic surgeon before the surgery is performed.Good luck.

In my pracice there is absolutely no burning sensation whatsoever.  The cost includig operatinf room and anesthesia sedation etc all inclusive is $2500 to $3000

Tumescent fluid burns as it goes in that is why many who do small areas give medications prior to the fluid infiltration.  Although hi definition and full body contouring procedures need to be under general anesthesia to get improved results. Best, Dr. Emer.
