How do I know if Lipodissolve is right for me?
You may be a candidate for Lipodissolve if you have small areas of fat deposits that need reduction, or you are unable to undergo sugerical lipoplasty. During your consultation the physician will evaluate your condition and profile, and whether Lipodissolve is the right solution for you.What happens during Lipodissolve?
Lipodissolve micro-injections target the fat deposits. When injections are done to the fat area you wish to have reduced, the medications in the injections initiate the fat to gradually loosen, liquify and finally dissolve and eliminate through the natural process.How much weight can I expect to lose?
Lipodissolve is not a weight loss program, and although some patients have dramatic reduction in circumferal measurement, the actual weight loss may be insignificant. This is common even with liposuction surgery of fat removal.Will the fat return after Lipodissolve treatment?
The fat will return if you gain more weight in the future, but observations in Lipodissolve have shown that the fat often stay off quite well in the treated area even after some overall weight gain and retains a natural look without pockets of unevenness.Can results become uneven?
The different injection techniques can be used either for skin retraction or fat reduction. In procedures for fat reduction there has been no reports until date where unevenness in areas injected have been observed from the injections.
