Regional Slimming and Cellulite Treatment

Lipolysis is an effective treatment method that facilitates the natural elimination of localized excess fat. It involves injecting a substance called PPC (phosphatidylcholine), derived from soy, into the subcutaneous tissue using lipolysis injections. The non-surgical nature, low cost, absence of side effects, and short recovery time make lipolysis applications more attractive.

Where is Lipolysis Used?

In lipolysis treatment, PPC is injected into the area with localized fat accumulation using very fine 10-13 mm needles. This substance increases the permeability of fat cells, causing them to break down and be eliminated by the liver. Subsequently, the fat is naturally expelled through the body's lymphatic system. Since the body expels fat naturally, there are no issues like sagging.

The effects of lipolysis begin immediately after the treatment. Visible slimming is usually achieved by the second session, approximately 1-2 months after the treatment.

Who Should Not Receive Lipolysis?

Session Duration and Number of Sessions
The duration of a session varies between 15-45 minutes, depending on the size of the area to be treated. The number of sessions is determined based on the patient’s expectations. Satisfactory results are typically achieved after 2-6 sessions, with intervals of 2-4 weeks between each session.

Post-Treatment Instructions

Regional Slimming - Body Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy, also known as intradermotherapy, is a treatment that was developed to eliminate systemic side effects by providing localized treatment. Mesotherapy involves injecting a mixture made from medications and other herbal preparations into areas affected by cellulite. Mesotherapy is applied in weekly sessions, with anatomical measurements taken of the treated areas each week. In mesotherapy, the patient sees results every week, and fat accumulation in the treated areas gradually decreases without the need for surgery. Since the mesotherapy mixture includes circulatory regulators and skin-tightening agents, the patient loses weight rapidly, and the skin becomes firm and smooth without sagging, while cellulite disappears.

How Does Mesotherapy Treat Cellulite and Excess Fat?

Mesotherapy treats the factors involved in the formation of cellulite. It uses drugs or combinations that break down fat tissue, regulate circulation, and eliminate damaged connective tissue, thus softening the skin’s surface. Mesotherapy can be applied to any body area affected by cellulite.
