hi, this is dr. hourglass, and welcome toanother video in our channel superhourglass. today we are going to discuss: what is tumescent? in this channel, we will discuss everything you need to know for you to get the hourglass shape you’ve always wanted. welcome back. you probably have noticed if you have watchedvideos of the actual surgery of liposuction that prior to performing liposuction the surgeon injects a fluid in the belly or any anatomical area. so, what is this fluid? this fluid is called tumescent.

tumescent is a mixture of saline, which is essentially water, combined with lidocaine and epinephrine. when performing liposuction, it is well knownthat if no fluid is injected in the surgical site, you will be sucking and removing notjust the fat but also blood. in the early days, when liposuction was performedwithout the tumescent technique, it led to multiple complications including excessive bleeding which required transfusion. through time, plastic surgeons were able to figure out different ways of minimizing risks and complications. one of the most effective, which could be performed under local anesthesia while minimizing blood loss is by using tumescent with epinephrine. epinephrine is a vasoconstrictor.

essentially, when we inject these into the tissue, the tissues engorge and the vessels that are within the tissue vasoconstrict, meaning, they collapse. thus, when we perform liposuction, only the fat and minimal blood is extracted during the procedure. in addition, lidocaine that is added to the fluid is used to control the amount of general anesthetic that is provided during the surgery. lidocaine is a local anesthetic and numbsthe targeted area. the less stimulation while you are under generalanesthesia, the less general anesthesia is needed during the procedure itself. using tumescent is standard care these days.

it is essential for any surgeon performing this type of procedure to employ tumescent anesthetic prior to the liposuction itself. in this video, we discussed what is tumescent. next week, we will discuss who is not a goodcandidate for liposuction remember to comment below, share this video,like this video, and subscribe to our channel for more information, here at the superhourglasschannel, only on youtube. also, you can log on to our website, for more information about your procedure and to see amazing surgical results. remember to log on to our hourglass tv for more information about your surgical procedures.
