Post Lipo Dissolve Home Care Plan

Lipo Dissolve (PTC) aids in getting rid of resistant fatty tissue.  It is by no means a method of weight lost.  Your weight will remain the same.

 What to expect:

1. Pain
2. Swelling (esp around the face)
3. Tenderness
4. Itchiness
5. Redness around injection site or from topical anaesthetic
6. Bruising/Haematoma
7. Nodules / Infection (uncommon)
8. Tiredness

Others:

-       uneven results

-       Poor or no results (< 10% of cases due to inherited reduction in receptors to break down PTC)

-       Nausea, sweating, diarrhoea, altered taste and very rarely palpitations.

It is important to discuss all the potential risks and benefits of this treatment with your cosmetic physician.  Should you develop any unexpected symptoms, please consult your doctor immediately.
