Why don all physicians use the tumescent technique?
There are many answers to this question, however, one of the most obvious is the fact that the tumescent technique, with the use of small instruments and no powerful suction pump, results in a procedure that takes about twice as long to perform as traditional liposuction while costing much less. This new form of bodysculpture (and tumescent anesthesia) is a technique that requires training separate from traditional liposuction.
