EFFECTS OF TRANEXAMIC ACID IN TUMESCENT SOLUTION FOR LIPOSUCTION PROCEDURES

Summary

The goal of this trial is to evaluate the effect of adding Tranexamic Acid (TXA) to the tumescent solution used in arm liposuction on postoperative outcomes. Study population includes healthy volunteer adults undergoing Liposculpture procedures. The main question it aims to answer is: 1\. Does Tranexamic acid exert benefit on postoperative outcomes after liposuction? Researchers will compare TXA versus traditional tumescent solution to see if there are benefits on adding it to the tumescent solution. Participants will undergo High Definition Liposculpture involving arms, legs and their torso. One arm will be infiltrated with traditional Klein's tumescent solution and the other one with the same one but adding Tranexamic Acid.
