Facial Slimming & Fat Reduction

Losing weight on the face, especially losing a double chin with diet and exercise only is quite difficult. Even if you are losing unwanted pounds from the body, it does not always go hand in hand with a slim face.

Fat dissolving can also be used  in the facial area, it strengthens the dermal framework, tightens the skin, eliminates age related ptosis and enhances facial contour preventing sagging, and stimulates collagen production.

Fat dissolving is minimally invasive and painless.

The application procedure

The procedure consists of the following steps:

  1. Preliminary treatment of the skin with alcohol lotion or chlorhexidine

  2. Small relatively painless injections to the face.

  3. Final treatment of the skin with antiseptic

We use Lipolax, Lipolax VL and Lemon bottle

After your appointment.

Lipolytic mesotherapy does not require recovery time.

After treatment, redness and a burning sensation that does not last more than 12-24 hours may occur although this is unlikely.

Results

After just one session of lipolytic mesotherapy with Lipolax, Lipolax VL and Lemon bottle, you can get rid of unwanted local fatty deposits and flabby skin. After the third session, you will notice that the injection areas have decreased, local accumulations of adipose tissue in problem areas (double chin, etc.) have disappeared and the skin in the treated areas has become smoother and elastic.

We recommend a course of 3- 5 depending on the individual and chosen fat dissolving product.

We use both Lipolax, Lipolax VL and Lemon bottle. We. have tried many products and find these to be the most effective.

Safety is our middle name.

  1. When introduced into the subcutaneous tissue, the fat dissolving solution  increases the osmotic pressure within the cells and splits the fat into its components, which causes the cell membrane to rupture.

  2. The cleavage products of the adipocyte enter the lymph flow and blood via the damaged membrane and are excreted by the kidneys and liver.

Our safety practises ensure we have minimal risks and complications.

AFTER CARE:

  • Immediately following the procedure, ice can be applied if needed to reduce swelling for the first 48 hours.
  • Do not wash or take a shower for at least 4 hours after treatment.
  • Arnica gel can be applied three times a day for 48 hours to resolve bruising.
  • Do not take anti-inflammatories (aspirin) or Vitamin E for 24 hours after injections.
  • Hot tubs, saunas, Jacuzzis and massages are not recommended for 48 hours after treatment.
  • Avoid direct sun exposure, tanning beds for two weeks post treatment.
  • Walking 20-30 minutes daily during the course of treatment will aid in effectiveness.
  • Avoid strenuous exercise for 48 hours.
  • Drink lots of fluids (water) for the first 24 hours.
  • Avoid alcohol to facilitate hepatic handling of toxins.
  • After treatment there may be slight redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness or itching in the in the treated area. This is a normal result of the product – the inconvenience is temporary and generally disappears in a day or two although you may not get any. Small lumps may also occur and will go over a few days.
  • The area can remain tender to touch several weeks after the treatment. Paracetamol or Codeine can be taken, but avoid anti-inflammatory pain killers such as Ibuprofen.
  • You may apply an ice pack to the treated area to reduce the initial swelling. Massaging Arnica gel into the treated area 3-4 time a day can also help with bruising and swellin, as can a compression garment.
  • If you have previously suffered from facial herpes, there is a risk that the injections could contribute to another outbreak of herpes (cold sores etc.).
  • Do not wash the area or take a hot shower for 8 hours after the treatment.
  • Do not expose the treated area to intense heat e.g. sunbed, swimming, sauna, sunbathing or extreme coldness. A sauna before treatment can help to mobilise the fat. If it’s unavoidable to go into the sun, wear SPF 50 at all times.
  • Avoid alcohol to facilitate the liver in the handling of the fat.
  • Stay well hydrated by drinking 2 litres of water a day for the next week to help the body metabolise the fat.
  • Following the procedure, a gradual reduction in the thickness of the fat layer will take place. You may start to see changes as early as two to three weeks.
