Am I a candidate for Lipodissolve?

Lipodissolve treatment is suitable for men and women who are not excessively overweight, but who may have certain problem areas of fat that they cant get rid of through a diet and exercise program. Good Lipodissolve candidates should only be looking to have inches of fat removed, rather than pounds. For those with more fat to lose, liposuction or other weight loss surgery options may be more suitable than Lipodissolve. Lipodissolve patients should also have realistic expectations for the outcome of their Lipodissolve procedure.

Unsuitable candidates for Lipodissolve treatment include people who are:

  1. Diabetic
  2. Pregnant
  3. Morbidly obese
  4. On certain medications
  5. Suffering certain illnesses
  6. Allergic to the product or any of the ingredients in the injections

Lipodissolve Procedure Steps

Step 1 Anesthesia

  1. A thin layer of topical anesthetic numbing cream is applied to the areas to be treated by your Lipodissolve practitioner. The areas are then covered in cling wrap and left for an hour to ensure that the areas to be treated with Lipodissolve injections are sufficiently numb. The treatment area is then cleansed.
  1. The Lipodissolve solution is then injected under the skin into the deeper layers of fat with a series of injections using a micro-fine needle. You may feel some mild discomfort or itchiness as the injections are administered.
  1. The results of your Lipodissolve procedure will start to become noticeable within around two weeks, as your body naturally removes the dissolved fat. This effect continues for several weeks.

What is a Lipodissolve Procedure?

Lipodissolve involves a series of injections to "melt away" unwanted localized areas of fat, and improve the appearance of cellulite and skin.

Lipodissolve is a chemical formula including phoshatidylcholine, an essential molecule in the bodys cell membranes; deoxycholate, a natural digestive enzyme; and a cocktail of fat burners, skin tighteners and metabolism boosters. Other ingredients that may potentially be included in the Lipodissolve solution are antibiotics, enzymes, hormones, multivitamins, alpha lipid acid, plant extracts, anti-inflammatory, and non-steroidal medications. When injected into the the fat layers and connective tissues of the body, these ingredients combine to destroy and remove localized fat deposits.

Many people use Lipodissolve treatments to reduce fat in the chin area, the upper and lower stomach, love handles, backs of arms, thigh saddlebags, knees, and under the upper arms between the elbow and armpit. In fact, any areas of the body that retain unwanted pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise may benefit from Lipodissolve injections. Lipodissolve treatment can also reduce cellulite, stretch marks and scars. Lipodissolve injections remove fat evenly, with very low risk of dimpling, leaving skin smooth and rejuvenated.

Lipodissolve is a viable non-surgical fat removal option for people who do not want to undergo the risks, cost and downtime associated with other fat reduction treatments such as liposuction.

The Lipodissolve injections treatment typically lasts less than an hour, and patients may return to work and their normal daily activities immediately.
