LipoDissolve is an excellent treatment modality for...
LipoDissolve is an excellent treatment modality for patients who have unwanted adipose (fat) tissue that they can readily identify. I tell patients if there is a specific area of unwanted fat that they can point to and say "I wish this would disappear" - that is exactly what LipoDissolve is designed to do. LipoDissolve is not a replacement for healthy eating or exercise, and patients who want general or overall weight reduction are not good candidates.

Is Lipodissolve right for you?
I agree completely with many of the physicians' comments below.
Please keep in mind that your body is an architectural structure whose shape is determined by the interplay of bone, muscle, fat, and skin. Similar to a house that may be composed of a foundation, studs, beams, and drywall. Changing only the fat may not have much effect, if the real problem is your skin and muscles (common after a pregnancy) or it could actually have a deleterious result. IF you take away your studs, you will...

Lipodissolve vs. liposuction
A few years ago, I performed several hundred lipodissolve procedures in virtually every area of the body. It works, but according to the amount of fat you need to dissolve, it takes more than one procedure, and sometimes several procedures.

I researched and used formulas that were used by the doctors who were doing the most...

Never heard of anyone happy with Lipodissolve results
I have not seen a patient yet who was happy with a lipodissolve treatment. It is amazing to me that people keep going back for treatment after treatment with no discernible difference. If you post a picture we can give you more specific advice on which procedures may be appropriate for you.

Not Recommended
I would not recommend lipodissolve as for the reasons mentioned above. I have seen many patients in my practice who have attempted the procedure and have been very unhappy with the results. All they were left with was some skin redness and bruising.
When it comes to cosmetic procedures, I recommend keeping with procedures that are proven, safe and work.
Hope that helps.

Lipodissolve vs liposuction
Lipodissolve is not FDA approved and the majoirty of physicians I know won't perform it. This method uses chemicals to try to melt fat. Liposuction uses small cannulas to manually remove fat from the underlying subcutaneous space.

Controversial topic
This is a great question that will create a lot of different opinions. LipoDissolve is a procedure where a chemical substance is injected into fat pockets that could lead to dissolving them.
These are few observation regarding this controversial topic:
1-It is not FDA approved (most board cetified plastic surgeons will not perfom it)
2-Most patients that i have seen so far were not very happy with lipodissolve due to the slim results and the need for multiple injections.
3-It works on very...
