“…However, the method needs hospitalization, is associated with risk of general anaesthesia, blood loss, potentially serious side effects like fat embolism and higher morbidity. 15,16 Large cannulae need large incisions which are associated with significant scars. Recovery time is slow, as after any procedure under general anaesthesia.…”

Liposuction is a method of removing unwanted fat through small holes in skin.Tumescent liposuction is a method in which liposuction is performed entirely under local anaesthesia, without any additional intravenous or general anaesthesia. In this method, higher doses of lidocaine are used, often 45 mg/kg, in a highly diluted form in saline along with epinephrine for vasoconstriction. Usually, around 5-6 L of fat is aspirated. This method has been remarkably safe and effective. Powered liposuction, laser liposuction, ultrasound and radiofrequency liposuctions use devices to enhance the efficacy of manual tumescent liposuction. The method has stood the test of time, in both effective and safe outcomes

“…The author suggested that previous estimates of continued postoperative blood extravasation into the surgical dead space may be too low and may be greater than the EBL identified in the aspirate. Mandel [294] concluded that unappreciated blood loss continues for several days after surgery, presumably due to soft tissue extravasation, and that serial postoperative hematocrit determinations should be used, especially for large volume liposuctions.…”

“…For large volume liposuction, blood loss may continue for 3 -4 days [294]. Crystalloid or colloid replacement may be required in the event of hemodynamic instability.…”
