Lipodissolve or phosphatidylcholine injections

One of the main ingredients of the Lipodissolve formula is phosphatidylcholine. But what is phosphatidylcholine exactly?

It is a product obtained from the most pure soy lecithin, transformed in polyunsaturated acid fat that is able to dissolve (hence lipodissolve treatment) the solid fat when applied with an injection in the tissue and to attack adiposity. That stimulates the fat to be more soluble so the organism can absorb and eliminate it in a natural way.

Phosphatidylcholine collaborates also in the protection from excess fat, improving cerebral activity, facilitating the absorbtion of vitamins and reducing cholesterol.

The number of sessions to take the Lipodissolve injections depends on the extension of the area to treat in each patient and the quantity of fat to dissolve. Phosphatidylcholine is injected with hypothermic applications each 7/10 days, always under the supervision and control of a professional that will also suggest a diet to follow. The first improvements can be noticed since the first week of Lipodissolve treatment, especially if combined with lymphatic massages, mesotherapy, hydrolipo or ultrasounds among others.

Lipodissolve injections are not painful, during 48/72 hours inflammations may appear. It is advisable that after every session the patient wears stockings to reduce them. Haematoma should not appear if the medical advices are followed, such as reducing the sunlight exposure.

Lipodissolve vs. Liposuction

Before Lipodissolve, to get rid of localized adiposity and cellulite, there was just one effective treatment: liposuction.
