The Science Behind LipoDissolve: How It Targets Stubborn Fat Deposits

January 4, 2024

LipoDissolve, also known as mesotherapy, is a non-surgical fat reduction treatment that is gaining popularity among those looking for a non-invasive solution for stubborn fat. The treatment involves injecting a solution into the targeted area, which helps to break down and eliminate fat cells. But how exactly does LipoDissolve work? In this blog post, we will dive into the science behind LipoDissolve and how it targets stubborn fat deposits.


What is LipoDissolve and how does it work?


LipoDissolve involves injecting a combination of phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholate into the targeted area. Phosphatidylcholine is a naturally occurring substance that is found in soybeans and other plant sources, while deoxycholate is a bile salt that helps to break down fat in the body. When these two substances are combined and injected into the targeted area, they work together to break down and eliminate fat cells.


The science behind LipoDissolve


LipoDissolve works by targeting the fat cells directly. The phosphatidylcholine in the solution works to break down the cell membranes of the fat cells, causing them to release the fat they contain. The deoxycholate then helps to dissolve the fat, making it easier for the body to eliminate it through natural processes.


One of the key benefits of LipoDissolve is that it is able to target small areas of stubborn fat that may be resistant to diet and exercise. This is because the solution is injected directly into the targeted area, allowing for more precise and effective results.


What areas can LipoDissolve target?


LipoDissolve can be used to target a variety of areas, including the chin, neck, arms, abdomen, love handles, thighs, and knees. It is important to note, however, that LipoDissolve is not a weight loss solution and is best suited for those who are close to their ideal weight but have areas of stubborn fat that they would like to eliminate.


What to expect during a LipoDissolve treatment


During a LipoDissolve treatment, the solution is injected into the targeted area using a very fine needle. The number of injections will depend on the size of the area being treated and the amount of fat that needs to be eliminated. The treatment typically takes around 30 minutes and can be performed in-office with no downtime.


Results and aftercare


Most patients will begin to see results within a few weeks of their treatment, with full results appearing after 4-6 weeks. It is important to maintain a healthy diet and exercise regimen to ensure long-lasting results. Patients should also avoid alcohol and strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours after their treatment.
