Reduction of localized fat deposits.
Injection lipolysis is a medical procedure intended to reduce small, localized fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise. It is a targeted therapy used in patients with normal or stable body weight where the concern is limited to specific areas.
Injection lipolysis is not a weight-loss method; it is a contour-correction therapy for localized areas.
Therapeutic problem
Common indications include:
- small accumulations of fat in selected areas,
- resistance of local deposits to diet and exercise,
- contour irregularities of the body or face,
- need for precise correction of selected zones.
Typical treatment areas:
- submental area,
- lower face (selected cases),
- abdomen (localized deposits),
- flanks,
- thighs, knees, arms.
Diagnostics
Diagnostics include:
- assessment of fat amount and depth,
- assessment of skin quality and elasticity in the area,
- qualification for lipolysis as standalone or adjunct therapy,
- exclusion of medical contraindications.
It is essential to determine whether the dominant issue is:
- fat tissue,
- or skin laxity (in which case lifting methods are preferred).
Therapeutic solutions
Injection lipolysis
The procedure involves injecting a lipolytic preparation that:
- causes breakdown of adipocytes,
- leads to gradual fat reduction,
- enables contouring of selected areas.
The effect builds gradually and usually requires a series.
Lipolysis as part of combined therapy
In clinical practice, injection lipolysis often serves as:
- preparation for lifting procedures,
- an adjunct to Endolift® therapy,
- support for contouring in selected areas.
When both fat excess and skin laxity are present, Endolift® is often the preferred method, and lipolysis plays a supportive role.
Regeneration-support therapies
- EXO Booster – supports skin recovery after lipolysis,
- V-HACKER® – metabolic and biological support of regenerative processes.
Treatment effect
Properly planned injection lipolysis may lead to:
- reduction of localized fat tissue,
- improved contour of the treated area,
- subtle improvement in proportions,
- natural-looking results without excessive intervention.
Results are gradual and depend on individual biological response.
Medical information
Injection lipolysis is performed after medical consultation and anatomical qualification. When both fat reduction and skin firming are required, Endolift® is often the preferred method, with lipolysis as supportive therapy.
Injection lipolysis is an effective corrective tool provided that qualification is appropriate and expectations are realistic.
