    involves injecting a numbing solution to swell tissues for surgery

    Tumescent Anesthesia is a technique used to numb a large area of the body by injecting a solution containing a local anesthetic, saline, and other medications into the tissue. This method causes the targeted area to become swollen and firm (tumescent), allowing for procedures like liposuction or hair transplantation to be performed with minimal pain and reduced bleeding.
