Lipodissolve Injections – Beauty and Body Perfection!
Fat dissolving injection is a new and innovative procedure for fat reduction. As compared to the traditional way of fat reduction, this is a gentler form that does not disrupt the body’s function. Nowadays, a lot of people are struggling with their body weight and are doing everything they can to look fit. Exercise and proper diet are always solutions.
However, some parts of the body cannot be remedied, no matter how much you exercise or have a strict diet. Some people want instant results so that they can forgo exercising, especially if it is only one or two body parts that need fixing. In this case, fat dissolving injection may be a good alternative, and you do not need to sweat it out to achieve your aesthetic goal.
What is Fat Dissolving Injection?
Fat dissolving injections, sometimes known as injection lipolysis, is a treatment that breaks down adipocytes (fat cells) through the use of an injectable and is a non-surgical alternative to fat reduction. The main ingredient of these injections is a substance called deoxycholic acid, which is a natural substance found in the body that helps digest fats. Kybella is currently the only form of fat dissolving injection that is approved by the FDA. It was originally meant for the reduction of submental fats or fats under the chin, also known as a double chin, but is now also used for other body parts.
Benefits of Fat Dissolving Injection
Other than being a gentle and non-invasive procedure as compared to surgical lipolysis, fat dissolving injection treatments have several other benefits. Some of the benefits include:
Efficacy in reducing or eliminating fats, especially in the submental area
Improved psychological and physical confidence because of the enhancement in the appearance
No downtime and long recovery required
Natural-looking results
Long-lasting results (with proper weight maintenance)
No incisions and scars
Minimal side effects
Fat Dissolving Injection Procedure
The procedure for a fat dissolving injection treatment only takes 20 minutes to an hour the most depending on the amount of fat being eliminated and how many body parts are being treated.
For optimum results, this procedure should be done for two to five times with an interval of four to six weeks, or eight weeks the most. The following are the steps during a fat dissolving injection treatment:
1. Before the start of the procedure, the patient will sign a consent form, and he or she will be photographed for documentation purposes.
2. They then draw a border in the area to be treated. Once they have created the outline, they mark injection points at a distance of 1 cm apart from each other, making a grid-like guide.
3. Usually, anesthesia is not needed during the procedure since the injection does not produce too much discomfort. However, if the patient is sensitive to the feeling of a needle’s prick, then topical anesthesia may be used.
4. Before the technician injects the treatment site, they make sure that it has been disinfected. Using the grid, they start injecting the site. The usual amount injected for every session is 3-5 mL of deoxycholic acid, and that is divided into several pricks. For every prick, a dosage of 0.2-0.3 mL is administered, totaling to 30-50 mg of deoxycholic acid for every session.
5. When injecting the deoxycholic acid, it is highly advised that the area should be pinched using the non-dominant hand to make sure that they are injecting the right site. For every prick of the injection, the technician makes sure that it is inserted between 6-10 mm deep because the fats are located deep in the dermis.
6. Once they have finished injecting the treatment area with enough dosage, they apply topical antibiotics to make sure that the freshly pricked area will not be infected when the patient leaves the clinic.
