What is injection lipolysis? Injection lipolysis - also known to the public as a fat-removal injection - is a form of therapy that uses injection treatments to melt fat in various parts of the body. The active ingredient was discovered in 1959 and is used in many medical therapies, for example as a liver protection preparation and to prevent fat embolisms. Who is injection lipolysis suitable for? Injection lipolysis is used to melt small, stubborn fat deposits that cannot be eliminated by changing your diet and exercising. In contrast to surgical removal through liposuction, the body does not change quickly, but in a slower process that can last up to six months. Who is injection lipolysis not suitable for? Injection lipolysis is not used to reduce weight. A suitable diet is the more appropriate means for this. How does the treatment work? The active ingredient is injected directly into the fatty tissue using the finest needles. The effect can begin after just 10-14 days. The melting process reaches its peak between the 4th and 6th week. Through the injections, the treating doctor creates an artificial inflammation, which causes additional tightening of the skin. The fat disappears and the skin tightens again. To achieve optimal results, 1 to a maximum of 4 treatment sessions are necessary. Which regions are suitable for treatment? Face: double chin, cheeks and nasolabial folds Body: neck, saddlebags, thighs, lower buttocks, love handles and gynecomastia in men, hips, upper and lower abdomen, fat deposits on the shoulder-arm joints (armpit folds), upper arms, fat pads above the knee, back areas Other applications: Cellulite treatment Which regions are more difficult to treat or impossible to treat? Face: bags under the eyes Body: inner knees, ankles Does the therapy work equally well for every patient? Humans are complex psycho-physical systems. As with any other treatment, the effect of the therapy cannot be predicted exactly. The success of the treatment depends very much on the consistency of the treated fat deposits. Around 80% of the patients treated are very satisfied with the treatment. Very few patients (around 5%) show little or no reaction. The NETWORK doctors are currently investigating why this is the case. As with any other therapy, a treatment guarantee cannot therefore be given. What information can you expect as a patient? The NETWORK doctors are committed to providing complete and comprehensive information about all options, as well as the possible and very unlikely side effects and contraindications in the information session and in written information.
