There are more and more medical aesthetic weight loss methods, and lipolysis injections are favored by many people for their fast results and minimal trauma. However, there are risks associated with medical aesthetic weight loss methods, and special attention should be paid to the following points before and after lipolysis injections so as to minimize the risks and achieve the best weight loss results at the same time.
What to pay attention to before the lipolysis injection
Fully understand the side effects of lipolysis injections
Although no particularly serious side effects have been reported with liposuction, it has not been approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Administration in China, so there are some unknown safety risks. In addition, adverse reactions such as dizziness, swelling, bruising, and pain can occur after lipolysis injections, all of which should be understood in place before the injection.
Women should avoid the physiological period
Women's physiology is special and their ability to resist germs is poor, so lipolysis injections at this time can increase the risk of inflammatory infections. Moreover, lipolysis injection was first used to treat fat embolism, which is a kind of medicine, and the use of medicine during women's periods may affect endocrine secretion and lead to menstrual disorders.
Attention! Lipolysis injections are prohibited during breastfeeding, pregnancy preparation, and pregnant women.
Injections are prohibited under 18 years old
The number of underage fat cells under the age of 18 is unstable and the effect after injection is poor. In addition, because the body organs are not fully developed, unpredictable risks are more likely to occur after lipolysis injection.
Choose a regular medical aesthetic institution
A professionally trained and experienced physician can ensure safety and thus achieve satisfactory results. Many medical aesthetic institutions in the market are cheap but not professional, and may have uneven injections, excessive medication, or unclean instruments causing uneven skin, or infection.
Precautions after lipolysis injection
Do not touch water for 24 hours
Lipolysis injections do not require an incision and are less invasive, but it is important to avoid touching the needle site with dirty water for 24 hours, otherwise there is still a risk of infection and inflammation.
Don't rub and press with your hands for 7 days
After lipolysis injection, bruising and swelling will occur at the site of the needle, so you should not rub and press it with your hands, as this will not only fail to reduce the swelling, but also affect the recovery and increase the degree of swelling and bruising.
No makeup for a short period of time
Some cosmetics contain heavy metal ingredients, and the skin is sensitive and fragile after lipolysis injection, so makeup will increase the burden on the skin, which is not conducive to skin breathing and recovery.
Do not eat irritating food
After lipolysis injection, alcohol and smoking should be completely banned for 1 week, and no stimulating foods such as chili, fried and seafood should be eaten for half a month. You should also eat a light diet and avoid overeating after recovering naturally.
