Liquid Lipo

LIQUID LIPO 

Liposunction without the use of scalpel

At our clinic we use the most advanced technique to deliver this fat dissolving solution which is an enzyme that works by breaking down fat. Our technique is the most effective way of delivering this treatment. Our clients have the maximum comfort and report no pain. It can be used to treat localized pockets of fat under the surface of the skin, and is suitable for areas such as under the chin, the armpits (bra fat), back, stomach, hips and knees. LIQUID LIPO is not a weight loss solution but works by helping to remove stubborn areas of fat that cannot be targeted by diet and exercise.

Typically we advise 2 – 8 treatments, depending on the area. Larger areas such as the stomach will need more treatments than a smaller area such as the chin. The treatment is a permanent solution to removing the fat, however the client must maintain a constant weight (e.g. not gaining weight) by ensuring a healthy lifestyle otherwise the fat may reappear. Our clients don’t find this treatment painful and they are surprised how easy it is to shift their stubborn fat pockets.

Side effects may appear for a few days post treatment, such as:

·         Redness

·         Swelling

·         Tenderness

·         Bruising

We advise this may take up to 2-6 weeks to fully settle. Most clients are suitable for this treatment, however we may advise a consultation prior to the treatment to check your suitability. This treatment is not suitable for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding and is only available for over 18s.

Price: from £150 per treatment
