Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Reported pain relief immediately after the intervention and reporting of adverse reactions	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Data obtained by the McGill Pain Questionnaire - Brazilian version to assess psychological aspects of pain showed greater intensity of perceived pain before the intervention, the dimension of subjective words formed by "distressing - miserable - unbearable" that reflect the importance and urgency of the situation, the space that occupies the pain in self-perception sensory and emotional opinion of an individual, taking into account cognitive phenomena of anticipation, memory, attention and previous experience. The data show that pain after liposuction is important requiring intervention. After the intervention group 1 had significant reduction of pain translated words "light or uncomfortable" followed by "bearable" request without extra anlagésicos, since group 2 had the same pain reduction remained in pain "agonizing" over ordering analgesia .	—
