Liposculpture (Fat Dissolving Injections)
Non surgical injections to reduce stubborn pockets of fat
Liposculpture is a procedure where a natural product (Lipodissolve) made from soy is injected into fat cells causing the destruction of fat cells.
Suitable Treatment Areas
Liposculpture is a non-surgical treatment that involves injections of fat dissolving substances into specific parts of the body to destroy fat cells. It is intended to remove or “dissolve” pockets of unwanted fat that cannot be removed with weight loss.
It is therefore not for bulk fat removal.
Lipodissolve is designed for localised fat reduction and body contouring, rather than weight loss.

Lipodissolve is highly recommended for improving the appearance of double chin associated with submental fat

Frequently Asked Questions
​
Who is suitable for Lipodissolve?
Most people are suitable but it is not a weight loss solution. Lipodissolve will give the best results in people who have achieved their target weight, but suffer from stubborn areas of fat.
Lipodissolve is not recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Is Lipodissolve safe?
The major ingredient in Lipodissolve is Phosphatidylcholine (PC), known as lecithin, which is a natural product derived from soy that is used orally for many reasons.
Another natural component within Lipodissolve is Deoxycholate (DC) which dissolves the fatty contents into a “milky” emulsion.
When will I notice results?
Within 2 weeks the treated areas slowly begin to soften, any minor bruising resolves and the fatty tissue thickness gradually begins to reduce.
Most people begin to notice contour improvement around the 4th week. The maximum fat loss occurs between the 6th and 8th week, and this is when the maximum changes in contours are noted.
As it takes your body up to 12 weeks to fully remove the dissolved fat, permanent improvements continue to occur up to this time. Slight lumpiness due to the body preparing the fat cell contents for elimination can sometimes be felt (but not seen) in the treated areas during the first 10 weeks.
Do I have to repeat the procedure and when?
Depending on the area treated and the desired effect, the treatments can be repeated 6-8 weeks apart.
What areas can be treated?
Any area of the body from the knee up can be treated. The commonest treated areas are – abdomen, thighs, hips, saddle bags, love handles, flanks, buttock, arms, neck, jowls and lower third of face.
Is Lipodissolve permanent? Will the fat ever come back?
Lipodissolve permanently destroys and removes some of your unwanted fat cells. Once they have been destroyed they can never come back. And as we do not grow or develop new fat cells after puberty, the results are permanent.
However, you can still increase weight if you do not watch your diet.
