Summary
The investigators' main hypothesis is that in breast reduction surgery, the use of tumescent
solution containing both dilute lidocaine and epinephrine will lead to better control of
postoperative pain, nausea, vomiting, shorter time through postoperative phases of care,
quicker discharge from the hospital and lower numbers of hospital readmissions than the use
of tumescent solution containing only dilute epinephrine.
