Reshape Your Body, Your Way

The Lipodissolve procedure takes less than 30 minutes per treatment area. Using a fine needle, our providers inject PC/DC directly beneath the targeted fat through small punctures, keeping patients comfortable throughout.

Lipodissolve requires no anesthesia or downtime — you can resume normal activities immediately, aside from strenuous exercise for a few days. Some temporary swelling, firmness, and redness are normal as your body gradually eliminates the treated fat cells.

While Lipodissolve itself isn't FDA-approved, its key components, PC/DC, are FDA-approved for other uses.

• Pharmaceutical-grade quality: PC/DC produced in FDA-registered 503b facilities for the highest purity.

• Compliance with standards: compounds crafted following Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).

• Expertise and experience: our medical professionals are highly experienced, significantly reducing risk.

• Technique patented by Allure Medical.

Minor side effects like redness, swelling, and tenderness typically resolve within 1–2 weeks. Serious complications are very rare when performed by an experienced provider.

When it comes to Lipodissolve and non-surgical fat reduction, experience and technique matter. At Allure Medical, we have been performing Lipodissolve treatments since 2003, giving our medical team more than two decades of experience treating localized areas of unwanted fat.

Over those years, we have continually refined the way Lipodissolve is performed, developing a patented Lipodissolve technique designed to minimize swelling and downtime while producing more predictable, consistent fat reduction. For patients looking for a non-surgical alternative for stubborn pockets of fat, Lipodissolve remains one of the treatments we rely on most.

Lipodissolve, also known as injection lipolysis, is a non-surgical treatment designed to reduce localized deposits of fat through a series of injections directly into the targeted fatty tissue. Unlike weight-loss treatments, Lipodissolve is intended primarily for body contouring: treating specific areas of unwanted fat that may persist despite diet, exercise, or weight loss.

Common treatment areas may include:

• Abdomen and love handles

• Double chin and jawline

• Arms

• Inner and outer thighs

• Hips

• Bra-line and back fat

The goal isn’t simply weight loss. It is to reshape and refine specific areas of the body without surgery or liposuction.

The story behind Lipodissolve goes back decades. One important predecessor of modern injection lipolysis was Lipostabil, an intravenous pharmaceutical formulation containing phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholate, used medically in countries outside the United States. Physicians eventually began investigating what would happen when these compounds were injected directly into localized fatty tissue, and early cosmetic use became particularly well known in Brazil.

That work introduced an entirely new concept in aesthetic medicine: could a physician reduce a localized pocket of fat with injections rather than surgery? Over time, research also clarified the importance of deoxycholate in disrupting fat cells, which ultimately contributed to the development of the FDA-approved injectable Kybella® for fat beneath the chin. Lipodissolve was among the early approaches to non-surgical injectable fat reduction, long before today’s wide range of body-contouring devices became available.

Allure Medical began performing Lipodissolve in 2003, during the early years of injection lipolysis in the United States. That matters, because Lipodissolve isn’t simply about the ingredients being injected. The dose, concentration, injection depth, injection pattern, spacing, treatment area and technique can all influence the patient’s experience and outcome.

After more than two decades of performing these treatments, our approach today is very different from simply following a standard injection pattern. We’ve refined the procedure around one objective: achieve meaningful, predictable fat reduction while minimizing unnecessary inflammation, swelling and downtime.

Allure Medical has developed a patented technique for performing Lipodissolve based on our extensive clinical experience. Our approach is designed to:

• Maximize fat reduction in the targeted area

• Produce more consistent contouring

• Minimize unnecessary swelling and reduce downtime

• Improve treatment precision

• Create smoother, more predictable results

Injection technique makes an enormous difference when treating body contours. Fat isn’t distributed identically from patient to patient; the depth and thickness of the fatty layer vary, as do the surrounding anatomy and the shape we are trying to create. Rather than treating every patient the same way, we approach Lipodissolve as a medical body-contouring procedure customized to the patient’s anatomy and goals.

A tremendous number of non-surgical fat-reduction technologies have appeared since 2003, and we’ve had the opportunity to evaluate many of them. Yet Lipodissolve continues to have an important place in our practice. In our clinical experience, it can provide an impressive amount of localized fat reduction per treatment while targeting very specific areas, without surgery, incisions or liposuction. That makes it particularly useful for patients who have a specific pocket of stubborn fat rather than a large amount of weight to lose.

Body contouring isn’t simply about removing fat. It’s about where fat is reduced and how the surrounding contours transition afterward. Removing too little may produce an underwhelming result, and treating the wrong area or treating it unevenly can affect the final contour. Successful treatment requires evaluating the entire contour, not simply injecting the area where a patient can pinch fat. Our goal is a result that looks natural, proportional and smooth.

Patients sometimes ask whether Lipodissolve and Kybella are the same thing. They are not. Kybella® contains deoxycholic acid and is FDA-approved specifically for improving moderate-to-severe fat beneath the chin in adults.

Lipodissolve is a broader term commonly used for compounded fat-dissolving injections, often involving phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholate. Lipodissolve formulations are not FDA-approved drugs for cosmetic fat reduction, although individual ingredients have a history of other medical uses. For appropriately selected patients, our extensive experience with Lipodissolve allows us to treat a variety of localized body areas where precision fat reduction is desired.

Lipodissolve isn’t intended to replace healthy weight loss, and it isn’t the right treatment for every patient. It is best considered a body-contouring treatment for localized fat deposits. During your consultation, we evaluate the amount and location of unwanted fat, your skin quality, the contour you’re trying to achieve, your medical history, and whether Lipodissolve or another treatment would be more appropriate. Our goal isn’t to fit every patient into one treatment; it’s to determine which approach is most likely to produce the result you’re looking for.

Our combination of extensive Lipodissolve experience, individualized treatment planning and a patented injection technique has been refined over many years of clinical practice.
