Areas of unwanted, diet- and exercise-resistant fat are a common concern for many cosmetic surgery patients. Whether it comes in the form of a persistent stomach “pooch” after pregnancy, areas of fat around the thighs that won’t budge, or bulges along the flanks and back, localized fat can be difficult to get rid of permanently.
Effects of lipolysis application start just after the treatment. Visual slimming is provided after 2 sessions 1-2 months later.
Is lipolysis applied to everyone?
Lipolysis treatment cannot be applied to:
- People having heart failure
- Diabetes patients,
- People who have liver and renal failure,
- During pregnancy and breastfeeding,
- Patients who undertake anti-coagulant treatment.
Moreover, it is not a treatment type which is applied to the obese people. It is only used for regional lipoidosis treatments.
Number of Sessions and Session Duration
Session duration is between 15-45 minutes depending on the size of area to be treated. Number of sessions is determined according to the patient’s expectations. Satisfactory results are obtained after 2-6 sessions with 2-4 months interval.
Precautions during the treatment period
- Alcohol should not be consumed during the treatment period.
- Sunbathing and solarium should be avoided during lipolysis treatment period. After healing of bruising and soreness of the skin there are no contraindications to sunbathing.
