Lipo Dissolve

Service Description

**Lipo dissolve with PCDC** refers to a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to reduce localized fat deposits. PCDC stands for **Phosphatidylcholine and Deoxycholate**, which are the primary ingredients used in the injection-based procedure. This treatment is often marketed under various names, but it typically involves the following: **Phosphatidylcholine (PC)** Phosphatidylcholine is a phospholipid that is found naturally in cell membranes. In the context of fat dissolving, it's used to help break down fat cells. It works by disrupting the cell membranes of fat cells, leading to their destruction. **Deoxycholate (DC)** Deoxycholate is a bile acid that aids in emulsifying fats and can help dissolve fat cells. It is often used in conjunction with phosphatidylcholine to enhance the fat reduction effect. **How It Works** 1. **Preparation**: The targeted area is cleansed, and a local anesthetic may be applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure. 2. **Injection**: A mixture of phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholate is injected into the subcutaneous fat layer using a fine needle. The solution disrupts the fat cell membranes, causing the cells to break down. 3. **Fat Metabolism**: The destroyed fat cells are then metabolized by the body and gradually eliminated through the lymphatic system. ### **Preparation and Aftercare** **Preparation**: - **Consultation**: Discuss your goals and medical history with a qualified provider to determine if you’re a good candidate for the treatment. - **Avoid Blood Thinners**: Similar to other injectable treatments, it’s recommended to avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements before the procedure to minimize bruising.
