Key Takeaways Awake liposuction employs local tumescent anesthesia so patients are conscious, which mitigates systemic anesthesia dangers and frequently decreases procedure and recuperation durations. It utilizes tiny incisions and slender cannulas to delicately extract fat, resulting in reduced bruising, swelling, and minimal scarring compared with conventional techniques. Patient interaction during awake lipo provides real time feedback allowing surgeons to adjust contouring on the fly to enhance aesthetic outcomes. It is safer for many patients because airway and deep sedation complications are reduced. Appropriate patient selection and rigorous safety standards are still
