What is Tumescent Liposuction?

Tumescent liposuction is an advanced fat removal technique that offers patients a safe and effective way to contour their body. By injecting a specialized fluid into targeted areas, this procedure allows plastic surgeons to remove unwanted fat pockets with precision and minimal trauma.

How Tumescent Liposuction Works

During the procedure, a special solution is injected into the treatment area, which serves multiple important functions:

  • Firms up fat cells for easier extraction
  • Reduces blood vessel size to minimize bleeding
  • Provides local anesthesia for patient comfort

Benefits of Tumescent Liposuction

Patients can expect several advantages with this advanced technique:

  • Less bleeding during the procedure
  • Reduced surgical pain
  • Easier fat extraction
  • Minimal side effects
  • Faster recovery time

Areas Treatable with Liposuction

Dr. Stephanie Peng can perform liposuction on multiple body areas, including:

  • Chin and Neck
  • Upper Arms
  • Chest and Back
  • Abdomen
  • Hips and Thighs
  • Buttocks

Liposuction Candidacy

Ideal candidates for liposuction typically:

  • Are within 30% of their ideal body weight
  • Have firm, elastic skin
  • Have specific body contouring goals
  • Have not achieved desired results through diet and exercise

Procedure Process

The liposuction procedure at SP Plastic Surgery follows a carefully planned approach:

  1. Tumescent solution injection
  2. Fat removal using specialized cannula
  3. Precise fat extraction monitoring
  4. Compression garment application

Long-Term Results

While liposuction permanently removes fat cells, maintaining results requires a healthy lifestyle. The remaining fat cells can still expand with weight gain, so patients are encouraged to maintain a consistent diet and exercise routine.

Recovery Recommendations

  • Arrange transportation after procedure
  • Take it easy and avoid strenuous activities
  • Stay hydrated
  • Follow post-operative instructions carefully

I had a breast reduction done by Dr. Peng in Nov. 2023 and I am so happy with the results! The results are beautiful and I felt very well understood prior to surgery, then well-taken care of after surgery. I definitely recommend Dr. Peng and her team.

I did my research for a reduction and I am glad I did and chose to go with Dr. Peng. 100% pleased with Dr. Peng and her team! From the first phone call inquiring, all the way through the post-surgical exams and appointments. My timing was right when Dr. Peng was changing offices from Plymouth to Minnetonka and her staff made the transition so easy. They ensured I had right addresses, phone numbers, and if I accidentally called the prior office, that staff was still extremely patient and helpful! Both her office and where I had the surgery, North Memorial, were easy to get to. North Memorial was incredible from check-in at surgery to post-surgery. Dr. Peng even ensured to see me before the surgery and tripled check our plan, re-ensured anything, and was just supportive. As for the procedure, her work is wonderful. My reduction went smoothly, everything looks correct, centered, symmetrical. Thank you Dr. Peng and your team. You truly altered my life for the better for myself and my family!
