I had my 3rd treatment for my lower abs 2 weeks ago. I can see a difference. Not huge, but a difference. I could actually after the 2nd one.

The treatments seem to be getting easier too. the first one was a [RS bleep]. Hurt and swollen like 6 months pregnant! i was mortified! they said some swelling.. not you will swell beyond all normal human shape! I thought to myself "fantastic... i had lippodissolve and now and 6x as fat!" but they were right it went back down. Its so weird. First stings and swells, and then feels like its filled with heavy clay, then goes to lumpy and finally like your filled with little frozen peas, and now i keep feeling occasional tack like pokes under the skin.

But the second time they used a topical freeze spray and that helped quite a bit with the pain of the actual injections.

Feel free to ask me questions.

Hi! I am about to get my first injections next Friday and I am kinda scared, just by reading everyone else's responces. I am having my stomach, love handles and chin done. The first session will be my stomach and love handles. I have a pudge and I have been trying to lose it for years now. I work out and I am on Weight Watches. So they said my results will be really good since I am commited to being healthy. I go to work right after I have mine done, and I didnt know if there was anything I should expect. I am also a weenie with pain...so I am dreading the shots....but willing to suck it up and get over it. I was just wanting more info from someone who has been through everything. Just keep me posted! :)

all I have to say is you really need to take the first day you have your shots off and relax. also depending on how much you swell you will want to think about what clothes you will wear. I was so swollen I looked 7 monthes pregnant and thats not a joke. I could not fit in to any of my clothes for 4 days until the swelling went down. the day after my first set of shots I could barely get out of bed or sit to use the restroom, that was all gone the following day. my doctor will prescribe pain meds if needed but I have never asked for them so it cant be all bad. good luck

I see that you posted this quite some time ago. What were your results? I just had my first treatment a couple days ago and am very swollen and pudgy. I am starting to wonder if this whole lipodissolve thing is just a bunch of bull. I hope it wasn't a waste of money. They say to get maximum results to complete all treatments, so I hope they are right because I will be doing all 3 just to know for sure. If it doesn't work, I will for sure post my results so others will know not to get it done or vise versa.

hi there Trisha, I have now done my 4th treatment, and it has been about 4 weeks since then. I am noticing a drastic difference from start till now... you dont really notice till one day you look at yourself naked and exclaim "OMG my bellys nearly gone!!" more good news: The treatments seem to be getting easier every time. * I am also going to a new clinic and they seem to be adding something new every time as well LOL. What they do now: ultrasound to loosen up the fat. Then the freeze spray while they are doing the injections. And the techs are getting very fast so its much easier to take. Your first treatment will be the most difficult. But dont be scared. if i had really understood what to expect it wouldnt have been nearly as bad. Advice: take a tylonol and if you can get one a painkiller about a half hour prior> when you go in relax. take deep breaths as they do the injections. they do hurt. most where there is little fat. te fatter you are the less sensitive. (only time ever i wished to be fatter hahahha). Immediately you will begin to feel in that area swelling and heat and an almost itchy prickle sensation. not bad. just strange. Head home and lay down. Expect lots of swelling. apparently the more the better - it means its working. your pants will not fit the next few days. be prepared and have some bigger pants!(if you are doing your stomach). they say a little swelling. ... my belly hit my thighs when i sat the first night!!! i was mortified. dont be... thats good.(yeah i know... bizarre). After that first night you will be sore, just move slowly and youll recover rathre quickly. Each treatment has been easier and faster recovrey for me as well. You may have some bruising as well. it will fade quickly too. but dont plan on wearing a bathing suit in the next week or so. TheThe peas under your skin seemgo away slowly. but every time within the 6 weeks between treatments they have been completely gone. Feel free to ask anything! Sarah

Meg, All I can say is DO NOT go to work after! they say you can... but you wont want to.... its not that your in pain, but you are slightly uncomfortable.... and you WILL be swollen to like 4 times that areas normal size. its crazy... go home drink lots of water, ,take it easy and lay down! the next day you can go back to work... please read my above posts for the truth on lippodissolve. its GREAT stuff. but its a weird treatment! I think the sales people are afraid if they tell you the whole truth you will say "too strange for me!" when in reality all the truth does is make the effects easier to take...... and i am on my 4th treatment now.. its worth it Sarah

Did you have to wear a girdle for the entire time in between treatments? I was told it was required for liposuction patients to help define the body shape, but I did not know if that was also true for patients getting the lipo dissolve? I a tight girdle for the first week after my treatment (my first was 2 weeks ago) but it is so uncomfortable that I no longer wear it consistently.
