Slimming lipolitics: injections, cocktails, in tablets. Cost, photos before and after, reviews of doctors

In pursuit of harmony, some women are on diets, others are actively involved in sports, and others are taking drugs for weight loss or seeking help in clinics, focusing on reviews or photos before and after losing weight. Today, there is another method for removing excess body fat – lipolytics.

What are lipolytics

This cosmetic preparation is an injection. Lipolytics for weight loss are made from soy. The drug is used to break down accumulations of fat (adipose tissue) in different parts of the body.

At the very beginning of the use of lipolytics in cosmetology, drugs were used when plaques appeared on the eyelids. But in the process of an ever deeper study of the impact and application possibilities, their new properties have been discovered that contribute to weight loss. But these funds can only be used with small deposits of fat. Usually this is the area of the face (nose, cheeks, oval correction), arms, legs and stomach.

The main cause of the problems of excess body weight is a metabolic disorder. Unsplit fats “accumulate” in the muscles, under the skin.

Lipolitics act only on this kind of “bad” fat deposits, while they:

• normalize lipid metabolism;
• convert body fat into energy stores;
• improve the functioning of the organs of the circulatory system (heart, blood vessels).

What is a part of preparations

The first lipolytics for weight loss were natural and consisted of a natural soy enzyme and a minimum amount of chemical constituents.

Judging by the reviews of patients and doctors, photographs after the course of use and before it, their use did not give the desired effect.

Now popular:

• complex lipolytics;
• mono (based on one active substance);
• synthetic;
• natural (from natural extracts).

Among the main components of drugs can be identified such:

1. Sodium salt – improves metabolism in the body, “cleanses” the blood vessels.
2. Carnitine – activates lipid metabolism.
3. Vanadium and its compounds – used to eliminate the orange peel.
4. Bile acid salt – helps in the destruction of fat cells in the body.
5. Caffeine is also suitable for the breakdown of fats.
6. Amino acid taurine – has a positive effect on metabolic processes, improves the state of blood vessels and blood, has a beneficial effect on the functioning of cells.
7. Phosphatidylcholine – the most common substance, normalizes the work of cells (metabolism of proteins, fats, carbohydrates).

Natural ingredients – extracts:

• green tea – helps to cleanse blood and lymph;
• artichoke – has a bile and diuretic effect, improves the composition of lymph;
• Fucus ( Fucus is a type of algae) – normalizes the skin condition (improves color, improves tone and elasticity), takes part in metabolic processes.
• chrysanthemums – soothes inflammatory processes and irritations on the skin;
• guarana – increases the energy reserves of skin cells.

In addition to the main components, there are also auxiliary:

1. Vitamin C is a well-known antioxidant, participates in the processes of metabolism in cells, increases and improves the activity of the organs of the cardiovascular system, and, accordingly, the condition of the skin, is indispensable for restoration processes in the body.
2. Hyaluronic acid – often used in cosmetics for skin care, improves tone (tightens and makes it more elastic and tender), moisturizes and promotes the rapid metabolism of beneficial substances.
3. Amino acids:

• Arginine – takes part in the production of collagen, promotes the breakdown of fats in the body.
• Phenylalanine – lowers appetite.
• Ornithine is important for normalizing the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.

4. Lidocaine (or its variant – mesocaine) – has an analgesic effect.
5. Benzopyrone or buflomedil – relieve inflammation, swelling, improve blood flow.
6. Trace elements (zinc, copper, silicon, chromium) – activate metabolic processes in the body.
7. Silicon – is necessary to improve the processes of moisturizing, restoring the skin, metabolism in the cells.

Plant Extracts:

• dandelion – positively affects the circulatory and digestive systems, reduces swelling;
• Arnica – helps with various inflammations on the skin, swelling, improves oxygen saturation of cells;
• ivy – helps to moisturize the skin, speeds up recovery processes, increases tone;
• centella – strengthens blood vessels, has a calming effect, increases collagen production.

Types of lipolytics (direct, indirect, cocktails)

Conventionally, the following types of drugs can be distinguished:

• Lipolytics for weight loss (reviews, photos before and after treatment confirm their effectiveness) direct action. Such drugs consist of two active substances, the action of which is aimed not only at the destruction and removal of fat cells, but also at the destruction of the membrane (base) of such a cell, which contributes to rapid weight loss.
• Indirect – their effect on the body (on problem areas) is more sparing. Preparations of this kind consist of plant extracts. When using indirect lipolytics, fatty deposits are also burned, but the cell membranes are not destroyed, so experts recommend using such drugs for a strengthening effect (for example, to increase skin tone, giving a more beautiful, healthy color).
• Cocktails – the use of injections for the skin in the form of cocktails is not a new direction in cosmetology.

Depending on the problem, the specialist doctor selects the most optimal composition of such cock
tails. Such preparations contain extracts from medicinal plants, vitamins, which help increase the body’s defenses, improve the appearance of the skin.

• flaccid, wrinkled skin;
• venous “stars”;
• stretch marks;
• small scars or scars;
• cellulite;
• body fat.

When undergoing treatment with lipolytics and cocktails based on them, the combination of components can change. This is determined by the elimination of which problem their action is directed.

For example, cocktails may first be prescribed to reduce the number of deposits of fat cells, then restorative (to improve the condition of blood and lymph), at the final stage, with a lifting effect (to strengthen the skin, improve its color, tone).

On average, treatment with cocktails lasts from 5 to 10 sessions, with breaks between them of 7-10 days. After treatment is completed, the volume of problem areas decreases by 1 or 2 sizes, the skin becomes more even, tightened, bumps, first wrinkles, signs of irritation, inflammation disappear.

Reviews of cosmetologists

Despite the popularity of such products, the opinions of cosmetologists differ.

Some of them constantly use lipolytic cocktails and drugs in practice. But there are also such doctors who are against lipolytics and do not believe in their effectiveness. In their opinion, these drugs do not give the desired result. They consider a more effective and useful analogue of lipolytics as a healthy lifestyle, a balanced diet, and constant physical exercise.

Some experts confirm that by applying lipolytics, you can lose weight, but this result will be short-term, and removing excess body fat completely and permanently is possible only by surgery.

Preparatory Activities

Before treatment with lipolytic drugs, it is necessary to consult a specialist (doctor).

The doctor, evaluating the patient’s state of health, indications for treatment with slimming products, possible contraindications, chronic diseases, making the necessary tests, will prescribe the most optimal course of treatment (the drug is selected, its amount – but during the course of treatment, changes are possible – for example, drug replacement).

Also, the specialist should tell in detail about the features of the procedure (duration, cost, result).

Step by step procedure

After the initial consultation with a cosmetologist, passing all the tests, the specialist proceeds with the procedure.

Main stages:

• The cosmetologist identifies problem areas and prescribes injection sites, treats the skin with an antiseptic or a special cream.
• The next step is the introduction of the drug. It is usually done with a small diameter needle to a depth of 0’4 – 0’5 inch. The injections are painful.
• After injections, the patient rests for about half an hour.
• The skin is again treated with an antiseptic and a soothing cream is applied.
• It is advisable to drink at least 0,1 gallon of water (to speed up the metabolic processes in the body, the breakdown of fat cells, lipid metabolism).
• The duration of one session is up to 1 hour (the area of the treated surface of the skin matters).

Rehabilitation

To avoid complications and eliminate unpleasant symptoms, the following rehabilitation rules must be observed:

• make cool compresses;
• during the week do not visit saunas, pools;
• Do not sunbathe or stay long in direct sunlight;
• refrain from excessive physical exertion;
• do not take a hot bath;
• do not drink alcohol;
• drink 4 – 5 pint of pure water per day (to normalize the body’s water balance);
• use protective creams from ultraviolet radiation;
• If possible, do not use makeup.

When results are visible

Lipolytics for weight loss (reviews, photos before and after the procedures confirm that the speed of exposure depends on the type of medication, namely its active components) give obvious results two weeks to a month after the full course of use.

There are times when you need to go through several courses of treatment with drugs (the so-called “remote” action) in order to achieve the desired effect. But in any case, the doctor decides on the duration of use.

Contraindications to the use of lipolytics

These medicines are prohibited for patients with:

• oncological diseases;
• varicose veins of any stage;

How to increase the effectiveness of the procedure

Such courses are aimed at enhancing the effect of lipolytic drugs – speeding up the metabolism in places of the treated skin surface, promoting rapid blood flow, increasing skin tone, renewing tissue (at the cell level), accelerating microcirculation and elimination of toxins and harmful substances from the body, increasing collagen production, strengthen immunity.

Procedure cost

Before and after photos

Lipolytics for weight loss have long been used in cosmetology. Their effectiveness depends on the correct selection of the drug and the duration of the course of treatment.

Reviews of lipolytic drugs differ: some experts actively use such drugs, while others do not believe in their effectiveness.
