Answer: Tumescent fluid for Liposuction- painful to inject? Hello 'shirley.walker111', thanks for your question. The tumescent fluid injected prior to a liposuction procedure is typically a mix of a saline-type fluid called lactated ringers solution, lidocaine anesthetic, and epinephrine to help with minimizing blood loss. As with everything, the experience can vary from patient to patient. With that said, the vast majority of my patients who undergo awake liposuction tolerate this very well with minimal discomfort. Be sure you seek treatment from a board-certified plastic surgeon, and good luck!-Dr.92660
