There are many different types of lipolysis application that we have started to hear about frequently in recent years. Enzymatic lipolysis, which is more effective compared to other methods, is one of them. Enzymatic lipolysis is a procedure applied with the mesotherapy technique. It is a method based on the injection of very thin mesotherapy needles into the stubborn fat accumulation areas of the skin and the breakdown of fats in these areas. It should not be forgotten that the main purpose of enzymatic lipolysis is not to lose weight and that this method is not a weight loss method; the purpose is to achieve a more fit appearance by thinning the areas where regional stubborn fat accumulations are concentrated.
The substance injected into the area where there are resistant fat deposits contains collagenase and hyalurinidase, an enzyme that has the ability to break down fat. It also contains Phosphatidylcholine and Deoxycholic Acid, also known as soy plant extract, which are extremely effective in providing fat burning. In addition to these, it also contains L-Carnitine and caffeine, which are used by athletes before training for the purpose of increasing the speed of metabolism and burning fat. The effectiveness of the substances in the cocktail mixture injected in the enzymatic lipolysis procedure lasts for 4-6 weeks.
Lipolysis is a method applied to areas with stubborn fat that cannot be eliminated despite regular exercise and diet, in order to break down these fats. The most common areas where lipolysis is applied are the fatty areas around the abdomen, outer thighs, inner thighs, arms, chin, armpit, hips and bra area. The beginning of the procedure increases with a regular and brisk walk and a balanced diet. Enzymatic lipolysis can also be applied to solve the problem of gynecomastia (breast enlargement) in men.
The application is completed in approximately 15-20 minutes and visible results begin to be seen from the 10th day. While the patient starts to be able to wear clothes that he/she had difficulty in getting into at first, the full result is achieved at the end of the 4th week. Although it varies from patient to patient, it is generally possible to obtain satisfactory results in one session. If the patient has excessive regional fat, a second session may be required.
Effective Results Can Be Obtained With Enzymatic Lipolysis
After enzymatic lipolysis, results are similar to those obtained in the liposuction method, but the advantages of enzymatic lipolysis include the fact that it is not a surgical method, the patient can quickly return to their daily lives, and there is no need for hospitalization. Skin fluctuations that may occur in liposuction do not occur in the enzymatic lipolysis method. With the application of this method, which can be applied regardless of the season, patients who comply with the diet and walking program given to them can shrink 2-3 sizes. Since the collagenase enzyme in the cocktail injected into the area where the fat is located in enzymatic lipolysis provides a visible tightening in the application area, sagging does not occur after the procedure.
During the enzymatic lipolysis process, the cocktail is injected into the targeted area to break down the fat cells, breaking down the membrane of the fat cells. Since a cooling spray is applied to the application area during the process, the patient does not feel any discomfort other than a slight ache caused by the breakdown of the fat cells.
Patients who will undergo enzymatic lipolysis are subjected to detailed muscle measurements before and after the procedure. In measurements taken 4 weeks after the procedure, a decrease in fat and fat around the organs, a decrease in body mass index, and a significant shrinkage in the measurement made with a tape measure in the application area are detected, while an increase in muscle ratio is detected in almost every patient. Patients are likely to experience slight bruising after lipolysis. These bruises disappear on their own within 3-5 days, but the healing process can be accelerated with cream and ice application.
The enzymatic lipolysis procedure plays an important role in reducing the abdominal circumference in patients with insulin resistance, prediabetes and diabetes, and in achieving regression in fasting blood sugar and insulin resistance tests. Since the wideness of the abdominal circumference is one of the factors that increases the risk of heart attack, enzymatic lipolysis can also be beneficial in this regard. While a decrease in the Total Cholesterol, LDL (bad cholesterol), Triglyceride, ALT-AST (liver enzymes) values of many patients who undergo enzymatic lipolysis is detected, the increase in the HDL (good cholesterol) value contributes to its evaluation as a beneficial application in terms of health.
It is recommended that patients who undergo the enzymatic lipolysis procedure stay away from packaged foods for at least a month and drink 2-3 liters of water per day. In fact, the aim is for patients to take a step into a healthy lifestyle and make it permanent by implementing the recommendations made to the patients after the enzymatic lipolysis application together with a brisk walk and a balanced diet. In this way, it is out of the question to face an undesirable situation such as easily regaining the lost weight and the regional thinning achieved.
With the application of the enzymatic lipolysis procedure, resistant fats that do not melt with regular diet and sports are removed from the fat cells. With the application of a special diet list and regular brisk walking, it is possible to lose weight permanently. The weight lost is lost from the fat in the person’s body and a fitter and better appearance is achieved by increasing muscle mass.
