Is 250cc enough to see a difference for Tumescent Liposuction?

Depending on the area to be suctioned, the volumes may or may not be enough. These volumes seem very small.

For some patients as petite as you, 250cc of fat removal with tumescent liposuction can make a visible difference. You are still in the early stages of healing. There will still be some postoperative swelling at 9 days. It can take months for the swelling to fully resolve to be able to see you final results. Thank you for your question. Best wishes.

The 250cc he removed was the amount of fat removed and didn't account for the total aspirate (fat plus numbing fluid). He may have thought he would get more out, but it's hard to tell how much will come out until you are actually in the area and working.Sometimes people have a round belly but it may not be mostly fat; it can often be a combination of fat, loose musculature and loose skin and the belly will still be round.This is an easy fix; if he didn't take enough out, he can always take out more (better to take out too little than to take out too much). 250cc is a smaller amount than we usually take out of 3 areas, but it really does depend on the person.You are only 9 days post surgery so you still have a lot of healing to do and a lot of the swelling will go down so it's way too soon to tell.Hope it turns out great.
