How does Lipodissolve work?
Lipodissolve, also known as Fat Dissolving or PCDC, is a cosmetic treatment that is designed to reduce the appearance of localized areas of fat on the body. The procedure involves injecting a mixture of enzymes, vitamins, and other substances directly into the fat cells, causing them to break down and be eliminated from the body. This treatment can be undertaken on areas such as, under the chin (double chin fat dissolving), the arms and abdomen area. If you’re interested in Fat Dissolving treatment in Adelaide, Renee is the injector for you.
The exact composition of the injection can vary depending on the individual case, but typically includes a combination of phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholic acid. These two substances work together to break down the fat cells and facilitate their removal from the body.
Phosphatidylcholine is a naturally occurring substance that helps to dissolve fat cells, while deoxycholic acid is a bile acid that aids in the breakdown and removal of fat.
During the procedure, the mixture is injected directly into the targeted area using a fine needle. The number of injections required can vary depending on the size of the area being treated and the amount of fat present.
The results of lipodissolve are not immediate, and multiple treatments may be required to achieve the desired results. The fat cells gradually break down and are eliminated from the body over a period of several weeks or months, resulting in a reduction in the size and appearance of the treated area.
It is important to note that lipodissolve is not a substitute for weight loss, and is not a suitable treatment for individuals who are significantly overweight. It is best suited for individuals who have localized areas of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. As with any medical procedure, it is important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine whether lipodissolve is a suitable treatment option for you.
