Severe reaction to lipodissolve: Should I be worried?
I had lipodissolve at a local aesthetic medical seminar as a model. I did not have immediate complications but after about 2 to 3 hours, i developed burning fever, chills, and joint pains. I had my abdomen treated as well as my love handles. I alos feel some deep flank pain. Should i be worried and take myself to the ER? It seems a bit too soon for an infection to set in. But is this fairly common? I couldnt find anything abt fever n chills right after the procedure. Pls help. Thanks!

Two weeks ago I went in for my first treatment on my face and chin and under my face they used the weak one first and today 2 weeks later I went in and they used the middle dose and here it is 5 hours later and my face is so big and puffy even under my eyes I have been putting Ice bag on my face but it has not changed I think it keeps getting bigger I have been calling the man that gave me the shots. I am getting scared I hope the swelling goes down. It cost me $125.00 each visit and he said it might take up to 4 or 5 times. I didn't know until I went to this site that it was not FDA approved.This pic was taken 23 hours later. Well the doctor called me this morning and said that the swelling should go down by Monday and today is Friday Dec 19th. I told doctor I don't think I am gonna go back and have this done. He said the weaker is better. Take my advice by looking at me.

Lipodissolve is not FDA approved and I do not recommend it until further clinical studies and safety have been established. View the web reference link below for information about Lipodissolve complications.
