Is LipoDissolve safe?
Yes, it is considered very safe. It is a mixture of naturally
occurring substances that we eat every day. The mixture that is
injected is primarily a combination of phosphatidylcholine also
known as soy lecithin and B vitamins. Dietary supplements of
phosphatidylcholine or lecithin are advocated for the treatment
of Alzheimer’s disease.Thousand of treatments have been given and no serious adverse
event has been reported.
What are the side effects?
Common side effects might include some light burning, bruising,
swelling and aching in the area injected. Women should avoid
treatment just before and during their menstrual period, as this
may create a greater degree of discomfort and swelling.
Cellulite treatment is generally more uncomfortable but this can
be reduced with topical anesthetics or ice.
Do the injections hurt?
Most people experience mild discomfort from the injections. The
needle is very small: the same size that is used to give an
insulin injection. Some people report a mild soreness at the
injection after the shots are given. This soreness can last up
to a week. However, a pain reliever is included in the injection
solution.
How long is the downtime or recovery?
Depending on the body area treated, patients often return to
normal activity immediately after treatment. Patients having
facial treatments for a double chin or facial fat may have
extensive and unattractive swelling and may wish to stay off
work for three to four days, although this is not necessary. The
normal time for swelling to resolve is one week. Some minor
swelling or soreness may persist longer.
How many treatments will I need?
This varies from patient to patient and body areas targeted. It
is normal that results are seen in one to four sessions,
although your case can differ.
How long does it take to work?
The treatments take about 30 minutes to perform. Initially there
is some increased swelling for up to a week. It takes six to
eight weeks for the full body sculpting effect to occur and the
inflammatory process to be complete. Treatments are repeated
every six weeks. If you address large body areas, such as the
abdomen, and require several sessions, you may notice minimal
results between the first and second session. Many smaller
areas, like a double chin, often give satisfactory results two
months after a single session.
Results vary from patient to patient. Sculpting can be very
dramatic in some patients and have excellent cosmetic results,
while minor in others depending on their body type and metabolic
profile. |
