Understanding Lipolytic Injections
Lipolytic injections involve administering a solution containing deoxycholic acid—a naturally occurring bile acid responsible for breaking down dietary fat—directly into targeted fat pockets. After being administered, the solution works by breaking down the membranes of fat cells, causing them to disintegrate. The body’s lymphatic system naturally processes and eliminates the broken-down fat cells, leading to a noticeable reduction in fat in the treated areas.
