What is LipoDissolve and how does it work why do some people call Ultra- the difference?
LipoDissolve is a non-surgical injectable treatment that uses deoxycholic acid (DCA), a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps break down and absorb fat, to reduce pockets of fat in targeted areas of the body. It is commonly used to treat submental fat, also known as a double chin, but can also be used on other areas such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and arms.
Here's how LipoDissolve works:
Injection: LipoDissolve is injected directly into the targeted fat deposits using a thin needle.
Fat breakdown: The DCA in LipoDissolve breaks down the fat cell walls, causing the fat cells to release their stored triglycerides.
Absorption: The released triglycerides are then transported by the lymphatic system to the liver, where they are metabolized and excreted from the body.
Over time, the targeted fat cells are gradually reduced, leading to a noticeable reduction in the appearance of fat in the treated areas.
The term "Ultra" is often used to refer to a specific brand or formulation of LipoDissolve that may contain a higher concentration of DCA or additional ingredients to enhance the effectiveness of the treatment. Different brands or formulations may have slightly different protocols or techniques, but they generally follow the same basic principles of injecting DCA to break down and absorb fat.
It is important to note that LipoDissolve is not a substitute for weight loss or a healthy lifestyle. It is primarily used to target and reduce localized fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. Individual results may vary and it is always advisable to consult a qualified healthcare professional or a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss the suitability and effectiveness of LipoDissolve for your specific needs and goals.
