Lipodissolve is a relatively new yet popularly growing medical procedure that involves injecting Phosphatidyl Choline and sometimes Deoxycholate, both of which occur naturally in our own bodies, into certain pre-chosen bodily areas with troublesome fatty deposits. Since some areas of the body are unresponsive to diet and exercise, lipodissolve lipolysis injections may be considered for fat loss where previous conventional fat loss attempts have failed.

The usual procedure includes an office visit to a board certified plastic surgeon trained and practiced in the specific procedures involved with the lipodissolve injections. Areas which may contain troublesome fatty deposits are marked. The surgeon will then inject the lipo-dissolve solution in between the fatty layer of tissue and the muscle layers just under the skin.

The usual areas of treatment include the inner thigh, hips, under the eyes and chin, saddle bag areas and areas of the waist where prior reconstructive surgery or diet and exercise have failed. For post reconstructive surgeries, Lipodissolve Lipolysis injections help to shape and define the area in greater detail.

Each session will usually last between 15 to 30 minutes while the amount of sessions depends upon the amount of fat and the designated area to be injected. Smaller areas such as the face, take less sessions than typically larger areas such as the buttocks and stomach.

Some visible signs of treatment occurrence include localized bruising of the injection site, redness and soreness of the treatment areas. A smoother appearance will be fully visible within one month after large area treatment. Smaller areas will show a faster overall improvement shortly after treatment.

The benefits of lipo-dissolve can range from being a convenient addition to prior surgery, to a fast and simple alternative to fat reduction in areas impervious to diet and exercise. Those who have had prior surgery may find these small injections a benefit in the overall finished effect of their surgery. Targeting smaller areas where surgery did not serve well, one can expect a smoother more refined and sculpted look after Lipodissolve treatments. If desiring a simple solution to stubborn fatty deposits, lipodissolve offers a less invasive procedure for a smoother overall result.
