An Alternative to Liposuction, Lipo-Dissolve

It is a known fact that many of us wish we were about 20 years younger. However, the burning question is, how far are we willing to go and how much are we willing to spend to look younger despite the fact that our bodies continue to age?

Lipo-dissolve is marketed as an alternative to liposuction. It involves a series of medicated injections that dissolve localized areas of fat accumulation. The process goes something like this.
* Unwanted fat cells accumulate around our stomach, buttocks, chin, thighs, arms, etc
* Micro injections of PCDC dissolve the cells of fat
* The fat cells, in turn, absorb the PCDC, become slightly inflamed, and then harden
* The hardened cells break down and within a few weeks are excreted out of the body

The needles are very small, about the same size that doctors used to give Botox or insulin injections. The injections are repeated every two weeks for a total of about six treatments. Most patients claim to see a noticeable difference after four treatments. Some of the side effects after the injection may include a burning in the area of the injection, and some swelling. Which is the body responding to the injection. The burning can last 30-45 minutes, while the swelling may last from one to two weeks. However, most of the swelling should subside after two or three days.

The reason given for the swelling is the destruction of the fat cells and the eventual deposit of collagen and other proteins in the affected area. The collagen and other proteins are what lead to the tightening and the smoothing of the skin. The fat and other cellular debris are then excreted out of the body. The swelling and bloating may be somewhat uncomfortable, but should not hinder anyone from going on with their normal daily routines.

Before undergoing this routine, the medical history of the patient is checked. The patient needs to be healthy, with a body mass index (BMI) under 30. Those patients who are pregnant or nursing, have allergies, active cancer, liver/kidney disease uncontrolled diabetes, or circulatory disorders are turned away as candidates for lip-dissolve.
