Lipodissolve vs. Liposuction: Are Results Similar?

lipodisolve is the injection of solutions to help disolve the subcutanous fat. unfortunately, this could be very unpredictable. I have corrected several patients who have had multiple big dents as a result of this procedure.

liposuction is much more predictable and safer.

Lipodissolve is to be avoided.  The theory is to inject certain medications into the fat which the patient wants "dissolved" and it magically disappears.  The problems are many: 1) There is no agreed upon set of medications to be used, 2) There is no standardization of the concentrations of the medications used, 3) The FDA has not approved it, 4) the procedure is not controlled nor widely accepted, 5) lipodissolve has a high complication rate.  Long story short; avoid lipodissolve and get a board certified plastic surgeon to do your liposuction which is time tested, safe and predictable.

I would avoid lipodissolve altogether if I were you.  It is a "formula" injected in the fat that is painful and associated with a high complication rate.
