One of the most popular alternatives to liposuction surgery for instant fat removal is Lipodissolve. This is particularly true in the United States whereas the popular alternative in many parts of South America and Europe is Mesotherapy. The concept of the two is actually quite similar in that they both use a needle to inject a chemical into the area to be treated. The chemical is meant to produce the desired fat reduction effect by breaking down and dissolving the fat to be removed by the body’s natural waste cleansing system.

Probably the best thing about Lipodissolve is that it can target very small or delicate regions where localized deposits of fat might be difficult to reach with other treatments including exercise and dieting. Since there it is not a surgical procedure, the treatment itself is much less risky to the patient’s overall health and well being. Some might be allergic to certain chemicals or ingredients in the injection compound which the physician will test for before beginning the treatment. Any serious complication is very rare. As with any skin related treatments, some side effects like swelling or skin irritation are possible but are usually mild and temporary discomforts that go away with time.

As a non surgical liposuction alternative, this injection technique allows for a very quick recovery time. Most typical patients of liposuction surgery will have to wait as long as several weeks to recover from a major procedure before they are able to get back to work and their normal daily activities. With a treatment like Lipodissolve, the rest period is merely a single day while excessively strenuous physical activities are obviously discouraged. Since this type of treatment removes very small traces of fat per session, some patients who desire greater changes might require multiple injection sessions to complete their treatment.
