ABOUT THE TREATMENT

Lipolysis is a non-surgical injection therapy that reduces localised subcutaneous fat deposits and decreases subcutaneous adipocytes (fat cells). It is not a method of weight loss but rather a treatment for body sculpting or contouring of fat deposits that are impossible to target as well as not affected with diet or exercise.

The injected active agent is phosphatidylcholine (PPC), a lecithin product produced by soybeans. Phosphatidylcholine is found in every cell of the human body (cell membranes), and is produced by the body itself.This substance mainly affects the metabolic process and causes the fat cell walls to dissolve and is eliminated by the body’s metabolic process. By reducing the number of fat cells in the area, the amount of fat stored in the area is reduced.

  • Cheeks

WHAT TO EXPECT?

BEFORE THE TREATMENT

Yes, the fat cells that have once been dissolved are permanently eliminated provided your weight remains unchanged.

Discomfort is usually minimal and brief. Patients only feel a slight initial prick and a slight sensation of itching and burning for the first 2 hours. However, prior to injection, your doctor may choose to numb (anesthetize) the treatment area with a cold pack or anesthetic cream to further minimize discomfort.

Generally 2-4 treatments are necessary at intervals of 8 weeks in order to successfully complete the treatment. Over 80% of patients are extremely satisfied with the results after 2 to 3 treatments.

AFTER THE TREATMENT

Results are not immediate but are evident after approximately 10 weeks. The results should remain constant as long as your weight remains unchanged.

Immediately after treatment, slight swelling and sensitivity to pressure as well as reddening and/or itching may occur and can continue for up to 2 to 4 days.

Most side effects are mild or moderate in nature, and their duration is short lasting (7 days or less). In rare cases, temporary skin reactions such as redness, pain/tenderness, firmness, swelling, lumps/bumps, bruising, itching, or discoloration may occur. Altogether, the therapy can be regarded safe and low in side effects.
