The Skinny
LipoDissolve
Lipodissolve, like mesotherapy, is a form of injection lipolysis that reduces the amount of fat in the treated areas. Unlike mesotherapy, Lipodissolve has defined components, phosphatidylcholine (PC) and deoxycholate (DC). The DC component of Lipodissolve is a bile salt which breaks down fat whereas PC helps in the digestion and drainage of the broken down fats. Depending on the size, as little as 3-6cc may be injected whereas a larger area such as the stomach may receive 40-60cc. Once injection is complete, most patients are able to resume all normal activities. For optimal results, 4-10 treatments spaced 6-8 weeks apart will be needed. The goal of Lipodissolve is to reduce the amount of unwanted fat in areas around the body including the abdomen, hips, and thighs as well as reduce the appearance of cellulite.
