Fat Dissolving

FAT DISSOLVING

Dissolve fat through lipolysis

Lipo’ means fat and ‘lysis’ means dissolving; so, Lipolysis is a term used to describe the process of dissolving fat by means of injectionLipodissolve uses PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE [PTC] as the main ingredient to breakdown the fat. Although PTC is naturally found in the body the PTC used in lipodissolve is derived from soybeans. You should not have the treatment if you are allergic to soybeans. PTC is injected with very fine needles directly into the unwanted fat deposits. The fat is broken down into a soluble form and removed by normal liver and kidney function.

Are the results permanent?

When appropriate diet and exercise is maintained the results of the procedure are permanent.

Are there any side effects?

Most clients experience bruising, swelling, tenderness and sometimes pain in the treated areas. This can last up to 2 weeks. Because the symptoms are mild most clients continue their normal activies after the procedure.

Does the skin sag or loosen over the treatment area?

As the fat is being removed, the skin tightens over the treated area; meaning there is no loose, sagging skin. This is one of the advantages over liposuction because the process is slow and the skin has time to tighten.
