If you are considering liposuction you may be asking yourself, “how long does tumescent liposuction last?”

This is an excellent question to consider when determining if this popular procedure is the best option to eliminate your unwanted body fat.

What Is Tumescent Liposuction?

Tumescent liposuction is a popular liposuction method where a special solution is injected into the treatment area.

This solution targets the fat cells until they are swollen for more efficient fat removal.

Can I Lose Weight with Tumescent Liposuction?

It is important to note that this is not a weight loss procedure.

In fact, these treatments are generally recommended for patients who are unable to target specific areas of body fat despite a dedicated diet and exercise regimen.

Moreover, to maintain your treatment results it is recommended that you continue to remain dedicated to a healthy lifestyle after your surgery.

How Long Does Tumescent Liposuction Last?

The fat removed during your treatment is permanently gone.

In fact, studies show that following your liposuction procedure, your body may even change the way it distributes fat making it a more even distribution to complement your treatment results.

Some of the most commonly treated areas with tumescent liposuction include the following:

  • Buttocks
  • Legs
  • Neck
  • Arms
  • Stomach

To learn if tumescent liposuction is a good option for you, always schedule a consultation with a board certified practitioner who has extensive experience performing this complicated procedure.
