| Many people worldwide choose Liposuction to remedy problem areas and enhance body image. At ThaiMed, our doctors utilize the revolutionary Tumescent Liposuction as it does not require general anesthesia and has a faster recovery time with the same, beautifully sculpted results. Most patients are able to return to normal activity within a few days! |
| |
| With the tumescent technique, areas of excess fat are injected with a large amount of anesthetic liquid before liposuction is performed. The liquid enlarges ("tumesces") the compartments of fat, which allows the liposuction cannula to travel smoothly beneath the skin as the fat is removed. The anesthetic liquid will also serve to help provide pain relief after the procedure and decrease the need for additional pain medication. Our patients have seen a noticeable difference almost immediately after surgery. |

| Tumescent Liposuction Thailand |
| |
Tumescent liposuction refers to a technique that uses large volumes of very dilute local anesthesia that is injected into the fat causing the targeted areas to be come tumescent, or swollen and firm. Local anesthesia is widely regarded as the safest form of anesthesia. Because local anesthesia persists for many hours there is no need for narcotic pain medications after surgery. |
| |
| Modified Tumescent Liposuction Thailand |
| |
Modified tumescent liposuction refers to a combination of tumescent local anesthesia plus some form of systemic anesthesia (general anesthesia or heavy IV sedation). Because general anesthesia or heavy IV sedation can be dangerous, they must be administered by an anesthesiologist. |

| The Different Liposuction Techniques |
| |
| There are many ways to do liposuction, for example liposuction can be accomplished painlessly either totally by local anesthesia or with general anesthesia. In the realm of liposuction, maximum speed and maximum volume of aspirate are not criteria for excellence. Ultimately, excellence is measured in terms of patient happiness which is a function of safety, patient comfort, finesse, and quality of results. The important distinction between liposuction surgeons who are board certified is the liposuction technique that they use. The surgeon's specialty is not as important as the surgeon's technique, experience and attitude toward safety. |

| Liposuction Complications |
| |
| Liposuction complications are often the direct result of lack of caution, poor judgment, over confidence, ignorance about pharmacology, or adherence to faulty dogma. This web site discusses these traits, and explains how to reduce the risk of liposuction surgical complications. |

| The "Art of Liposuction" |
| |
Liposuction is a medium of artistic expression that displays itself in (1) a practical application of scientific knowledge, (2) the production of what is beautiful, (3) a perfection of workmanship, (4) a perpetual quest for improvement in technique, and (5) a skill attained through clinical experience, and above all (6) making people feel happy about what they see in the mirror. |

| Artistry and Safety are Related |
| |
This web site asserts that artistry and safety depend on each other. The word "art" implies skill and mastery of a technique. In order to master an artistic liposuction technique, the surgeon must have the skill and intelligence to avoid exposing patients to unnecessary dangers. The true artist provides better results, and uses the safest technique and never forgets the duty to "first, do no harm." For example, even if a patient wants to have a large volume of liposuction accomplished in one session, the artist convinces the patient that serial liposuction procedures are safer and ultimately yield better results. It is not artistry to take unnecessary risks or push liposuction to the limits of safety. |
