Lipolysis/lipo-dissolve for Arms

Injection Lipolysis/Lipo-dissolve/the "Flab Jab", an exciting non invasive sculpturing technique to melt away unwanted fat from saggy arms. Alternative to Liposuction. Better than Belkyra.

In 2002, Dr Beulink introduced to New Zealand this exciting new non invasive, innovative, walk in walk out, injection sculpting technique to remove fat.

Lipo-Dissolve or otherwise known as Injection Lipolysis, is a non-invasive procedure that requires multiple fine injections of active ingredients into the treatment area beneath the skin to seemingly melt away fat and expel it from the body. The theory behind lipolysis is that together the ingredients cause fat to liquefy, dissolve and be eliminated from the body. Various ingredients may be used including combinations of vitamins and certain medications, depending upon the particular clinical condition.

This can be an effective treatment to remove pockets of fat on the face, neck and body.

Unlike surgery, these treatments are usually relatively simple, require no post-operative recovery time, require no heavy bandages or garments, and no anaesthetic is necessary.

The cosmetic application of injection lipolysis in our clinic includes removal of small, stubborn, unwanted pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise, reduction of lower eyelid pads, double chin and jowl areas, body sculpturing and defining body contours. Lipolysis is not suitable for weight loss and should be combined with a healthy lifestyle including a sensible exercise and dietary programme for optimal results. Some fat deposits are especially suited for treatment while others are not. Sometimes lipolysis may be combined with tumescent Liposuction for best results.

Treatments consist of 1 to 4 treatments (usually 2 or 3) approximately 4 to 6 weeks apart, depending on healing. Following each treatment localised swelling, redness and a light burning sensation is expected and usually lasts 12 to 24 hours. A more persistent low grade reaction phase consisting of firmness or thickening then occurs, usually lasting for approximately three weeks. Many patients see a result after the first or second treatment, although for optimal results extra treatments may be required.

PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT the same as the Belkyra injections.
Belkyra is a "copy cat" type of treatment made by Allergan Pharmaceutical Company and introduced to New Zealand and the world approximately 3 or 4 years ago. It was launched with great fan fare and hype, but in reality has had questionable clinical results. The Belkyra formulation is weak, expensive, and has only limited applications (under chin only). Numerous patients have been upset by this.

Dr Beulink has tried and no longer uses this Belkyra product. Dr Beulink instead, continues to use the original lipo-dissolving formulations to successfully remove fat.In 2004, Dr Beulink introduced to New Zealand this exciting new non invasive, innovative, walk in walk out, injection sculpting technique to remove fat.
