Liposculpting

With a simple medical office procedure, we can help you sculpt your body when diet and exercise just aren’t enough. Even when you are in your ideal weight range, localized fat deposits can remain. It can be frustrating to work so hard, just to have your fun, stylish clothing reveal unsightly bulges that you cannot get ride of. If you have flabby arms, a pudgy belly or stubborn saddlebags on your hips - get rid of them with liposculpting.
Based on the French technique of mesotherapy, lipodissolve is considered as a solution for those difficult to target areas.
Lipodissolve is NOT liposuction.
It is surprisingly easy to get results with so little effort. A secret of French women for years, this is a simple technique that involves NO SURGERY! No risk of severe complications. It could be so easy to lose an inch or 2 and fit into your summer wardrobe. You can lose up to 2 inches of fat. Just think - a whole pant size.!!! (This is not a weight loss method).
Lipodissolve/mesotherapy is the injection of tiny amounts of medication under the skin to bring about a specific effect. In the case of cosmetic medicine, liposculpting uses a combination of phosphatidyl choline (from soy lecithin) and de-oxycholate (PC-DC) to shrink fat cells.
It works like bile acid salts that your body makes to dissolve the fat that you eat. Phosphatidyl Choline and related substances are used in oral form by athletes and body builders.
Chronos Apollo is devoted to understanding metabolism and aging of your cells. Every patient has to undergo specific medical consultation with our physician before we recommend whether you should have the procedure or not.
WHY DO WE DO A MEDICAL VISIT AND BLOOD TESTS FIRST?
As with any medical procedure, not everyone will get great results. However; your odds of getting the best results you could possibly get are INCREASED when we understand the hormones that affect fat accumulation; and your medical circumstances.
Our doctor specialises in understanding your metabolism and fat deposition.
HOW DO I GET A LIPODISSOLVE APPOINTMENT?
You will book a 'consultation' with our medical doctor first. Please bring in all your medication and any supplements you are on to this visit.
This visit lasts about 45 minutes.
There is a fee for this visit.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
You will be sent for a variety of blood tests.
You may be recommended certain treatments to help you with fast metabolism and processing.
Once your blood tests are received, you may be prescribed medications if needed to optimise your metabolism and hormones that affect fat accumulation.
Only then will you be treated.
If your blood tests do not look 'well' to our doctor; you will be advised to find an alternative treatment instead of lipodissolve.
It is our goal to only treat those patients who are most likely to get results; and save others the process of going through a treatment that may not work well for you.
IS IT PAINFUL?
The injections are tiny and almost painless.
There are multiple injections, depending on the site we are treating.
ARE THE RESULTS IMMEDIATE?
The results are not immediate. In fact, there is a bit of itching and discomfort for the first 30 minutes after the procedure.
Then, there is swelling of the area for 5-10 days after the procedure. Although not painful; you will likely need to wear looser clothing during this time.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED?
You will need 2-4 treatments to get the desired results. Very few patients require a 4th treatment.
All treatments are spaced 2 weeks apart.
I HEARD THAT LIPODISSOLVE DOESN'T WORK ON CELLULITE. Is this true?
Lipodissolve can be very effective for cellulite. The treatment for this at Chronos Apollo is very specific and effective.
Step one involves rebalancing the hormones that make cellulite worse. We recommend you do a full hormone evaluation with our doctore to get the best results.
If you choose not to; the basic blood tests you will go for after the consultation will be sufficient to advise on whether you will likely get good results or not.
Specific therapies will be recommended pre-treatment and it could take up to 4 weeks of pre-treatment before you can proceed into the lipodissolve treatment.
LIPODISSOLVE FOR CELLULITE
Estrogen dominance is one of the most important factors in cellulite severity.
Reduce your estrogen load by eating organic, having a healthy digestive system (to eliminate the estrogen byproducts) and optimising liver function.
(Our Success Zone training program covers liver optimisation and cleansing, and digestive and hormonal health in detail to help you achieve perfect balance of your hormones and body.)

Who can get lipodissolve?
The best candidates for lipodissolve are people who live a healthy lifestyle through diet and exercise. It’s important to remember that lipodissolve is not a weight loss method.
To ensure you are an excellent candidate, at Chronos Apollo, you will see our medical doctor for a consultation.
You also MUST get certain blood tests as there are a few conditions that will not allow you to see good results from lipodissolve. Fortunately, a simple medical treatment can often allow you to be treated and proceed into a successful lipodissolve treatment.
If you are on certain medications, you may not be a candidate for lipodissolve.
If you have allergies to soy/ peanuts, you cannot have lipodissolve.
If you have disorders of the blood or blood clotting; or are on blood thinning medications; you may not be a candidate for lipodissolve/ mesotherapy.
If you have a phobia for needles and injections, you are not a candidate for lipodissolve/ mesotherapy.
