Tumescent Liposuction: An Innovative Procedure for Body Sculpting

Some of us may have already dedicated ourselves to healthy lifestyle changes and still find the same stubborn fat that won’t disappear. You’re probably feeling discouraged and need a solution to get rid of it once and for all. The good news is that liposuction has been proven to eliminate stubborn fat effectively. 

At BodyPoint medical spa in Lehi, UT, we specialize in tumescent liposuction – an advanced technique that can help you regain your body confidence. By investing in tumescent liposuction with us, you can feel more confident in your body, free of frustrations caused by stubborn fat areas. Moreover, we can combine tumescent liposuction with other perfecting treatments like BodyTite and Morpheus8 to help further contour treatment areas and benefit from skin tightening effects.

What Is Liposuction?

Liposuction can provide the dramatic body transformation one may look for after months of committing to a healthy lifestyle. It is a minimally invasive procedure that targets stubborn fat cells, which can often resist other methods, such as diet and exercise. After liposuction, results are not just long-lasting but permanent. People who have been consistently investing in themselves but still feel their efforts are not yielding the desired results should investigate liposuction as a viable body contouring solution that guarantees a visible transformation over time.

What Is Tumescent Liposuction?

It can be daunting to consider liposuction, but tumescent liposuction is a safe, minimally invasive liposuction procedure you should know about. It’s also sometimes known as “awake liposuction” because it usually doesn’t require general anesthesia, allowing you to stay alert during the process. During treatment, a thin tube called a cannula is inserted under the skin. Because numbing medicine (tumescent fluid) has been injected into fat deposits beforehand, there is reduced swelling and lessening of discomfort during liposuction. Furthermore, tumescent liposuction allows for faster recovery times than traditional liposuction techniques.

What Are the Benefits of Tumescent Liposuction?

Tumescent liposuction is a technique that has become increasingly popular in recent years. It offers many advantages over traditional liposuction techniques, making it an attractive option for those seeking to reshape their body contours. Tumescent liposuction is minimally invasive, causing minimal tissue trauma and minimal scarring. It uses generous amounts of tumescent fluid to numb the area, reducing pain and swelling. 

Recovery time is usually faster than with other liposuction techniques, so patients can often resume regular activities sooner. Furthermore, tumescent liposuction results in smoother skin texture and improved skin retraction, which makes it highly sought after by individuals looking to achieve ideal curves and proportions without risking any long-term adverse side effects.

How Does Tumescent Liposuction Work with Procedures Like BodyTite and Morpheus8?

Tumescent liposuction is one of the most popular body contouring and sculpting procedures. It can eliminate stubborn fat that does not respond to diet and exercise, providing long-lasting results. When combined with procedures like BodyTite and Morpheus8, tumescent liposuction may provide well-defined curves that suit the patient’s aesthetic goals. 

During a tumescent liposuction procedure, a local anesthetic is injected into the fatty tissue to make removing it easier. At the same time, BodyTite uses radio frequency energy for lipolysis (destruction of fatty tissue) and skin tightening. Conversely, Morpheus8 delivers heat energy through tiny needles inserted into the treatment area to create collagen remodeling and reduce fat cells. Overall, these treatments, combined with tumescent liposuction, efficaciously help in body sculpting.

What Should You Expect During and After Your Procedure?

Before

We will schedule an appointment during our initial consultation to discuss your fat removal and skin tightening goals. We want to ensure that you are in good health, with realistic expectations and commitments for long-term results. We must evaluate the planned treatment areas in person before customized liposuction treatments are recommended. After assessing your suitability for liposuction treatments, we can create a treatment plan tailored to your body’s needs.

During

During the procedure, we use tumescent anesthesia when performing liposuction to reduce any discomfort and accelerate the healing process. A microcannula is inserted into a small incision, and fluid anesthesia is injected, promoting comfort while fat cells are carefully removed. 

Patients will be relieved to learn that once they’ve been safely extracted, they can’t regrow or return, ensuring lasting results. Finally, to help complete the desired look, the patient may receive Morpheus8 or BodyTite treatments following the liposuction procedure.

After

After the treatment, you may need to take some time off for rest and relaxation, but with the right instructions, we’ll make sure you’re back to your usual daily activities quickly. Depending on the technique used, we will provide detailed instructions on what to do and what not to do during your recovery period. This way, you’ll be fully prepared before your treatment begins.

Who Is a Good Candidate for It?

Tumescent liposuction is suitable for anyone looking to remove excess fat from their body without undergoing major surgery or extensive recovery. This procedure is particularly beneficial for patients who want subtle body contouring results but don’t need dramatic changes in their appearance.
