Using the Newer technique of tumescent liposuction Recovery is so quick that most of our tumescent liposuction patients are back at work in three days. Tumescent liposuction is the most significant single advance in liposuction technique since liposuction was first performed. It has revolutionized liposuction.

Tumescent (pronounced too-mess'-sent) liposuction involves the use of a very dilute solution of local anesthetics to both numb the area and to decrease bleeding in the body site where liposuction is performed.

So much safer: The tumescent solution is injected into the tissues prior to liposuction. The fat tissue receives enough solution that it actually plumps up and temporarily enlarges the fat compartment prior to liposuction, or "tumesces" them. Tumescent technique has a very much safer profile than non-tumescent liposuction, involves much less bleeding, a more rapid recovery, and eliminates the dangers of general anesthesia.

The advantages of the tumescent liposuction are so compelling that it is the liposuction technique used by Dr Wright.

Body fat of an adult tends to increase gradually over the years. After the age of 30, an individual tends to add fat according to a genetically predetermined pattern. This fat distribution is often resistant to exercising and dieting. An example of a genetically predetermined fat distribution which is resistant to dieting and exercise is the fat that appears on the abdomen and hips of a woman after pregnancy.

For many people who have inherited excessive accumulations of fat, liposuction is the only realistic means of changing the body’s silhouette. In effect, liposuction is equivalent to being able to focus the effects of dieting to specific areas of the body.
