The majority of medical and surgical complications from tumescent liposuction, can be
avoided by comprehensive perioperative patient evaluation. Aesthetic complication can
be minimized by proper patient selection, patient education, and good technique.

A comprehensive preoperative consultation including a screening questionnaire is used to
identify patients who are appropriate candidates. During the consultation, the risks, goals,
anticipated resulted and expected postoperative course are discussed. The tumescent
technique was invented to allow liposuction more safely. The tumescent technique has


virtually eliminated all complications. By a good technique, a large volume of lidocaine

with epinephrine can be administered in dilute concentration into the

subcutaneous,

resulting in minimal blood lidocaine levels, painless, greatly patient comfort, minimal

blood loss, decrease patient morbidity and expense, and elimination of the risks of
general anesthesia. Liposuction is charac terized by rapid patient recovery, safe and no
deaths were reported"
