NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK FAQ's

 

WHAT IS A NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK?

A NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK gets rid of excess pockets of fat on the stomach that cannot be removed by exercise or diet. 

HOW DOES A NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK WORK??

A NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK is performed using a technique known as intralipotherapy. Using either DESOBODY or LEMON BOTTLE the newest body fat dissolving injection formulas available on the market - the FDA approved solution is injected into the stomach using a specialised 4 or 6 point technique to destroy the fat cells.

WHAT IS THE ACTIVE SUBSTANCE?

DESOBODY contains the active ingredient sodium deoxycholate (deoxycholic acid) which is a special, medical detergent that literally destroys fat cells. and have been shown to be safer, more effective and more comfortable than other, older fat dissolvers on the market such as AQUALYX (which cannot be used on the body), and Kybella.

LEMON BOTTLE contains all naturally occurring vitamins, including Riboflavin (vitamin B2), Lecithin, and Bromeliad, to effectively shrink and transport the fat cells out of the tissue.

 

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOUR NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK AND OTHER TREATMENTS OUT THERE?

DESOBODY and LEMON BOTTLE work. Intralipotherapy works. Fact. Other methods / treatments that are marketed as non surgical tummy tucks - such as fat freezing, radiotherapy, and cavitation simply do not work - despite their claims.

- You have never had children, but have pockets of abdomen fat that are resistant to diet and exercise

HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED? 

3 sessions of DESOBODY at 6-8 weekly intervals is generally needed. We offer the treatment as a 3 session course as find this is the most effective, however, occasionally further sessions may be needed to achieve your desired result.

LEMON BOTTLE can be administered at 7-10 day intervals, and gives much faster results than Desobody. It also has less risk.

HOW LONG DOES A NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK LAST?

Destruction of the targeted fat cells is permanent. As long as you follow a healthy lifestyle and maintain - or lose, rather than gain weight - between treatment sessions and thereafter you will retain your results. 

ARE THE RESULTS OF A NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK INSTANT?

DESOBODY: The process by which the active substance destroys the fat cells - and also for your body to remove them, takes a little time as your body slowly metabolises and expels the released lipids from the destroyed fat cells. Every client is different, but you can expect to start to see results 3-4 weeks after 1-2 treatments with the final effect approximately eight weeks following your treatment. 

LEMON BOTTLE: Works much faster than DESOBODY, with results becoming visible in as little as 48 hours, more results after a single week, and full results apparent at 3-4 weeks. Everyone is different, and although we expect that you will see results from a single session, more sessions may be required (up to 5 sessions, you would then need a 2 month break from treatment before continuing)

HOW LONG DOES A NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK TAKE?

A non surgical tummy tuck takes around 5-30 minutes.

IS A NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK PAINFUL?

The procedure itself is relatively painless, although some people do experience mild discomfort.

 

DESOBODY: After  around 15 minutes, you may experience  itching, redness and mild swelling of the treated area(s) - this is because the product is starting to disrupt the fat cells so they release their contents. This is perfectly normal and expected. 

LEMON BOTTLE: Not reported as being painful, buy you may experience redness, itching, hardness, and mild swelling of the treated area.

WILL I EXPERIENCE SKIN LAXITY?

As it takes 3-4 weeks for the fat to slowly dissolve, the skin has time to retract slowly and skin laxity should not occur.

IS THERE ANYTHING I SHOULD - OR SHOULDN'T DO - PRIOR TO THE TREATMENT?

We advise you not to drink alcohol or take Ibuprofen within the preceding 24hours of your appointment, as this can increase the risk of bruising.

IS THERE ANYTHING I SHOULD - OR SHOULDN'T DO - AFTER THE TREATMENT?

Some clients prefer to keep the treated areas well supported following a NON SURGICAL TUMMY TUCK. Light compression garments can be purchased cheaply on the high street (we will advise of you of where to get these in clinic). Alternatively, we can supply garments (there will be a fee for this if needed).

- If you have bruised, do NOT expose the area to UV light until all bruising is gone (around 2 weeks)

- Do NOT use a sauna for 2 weeks

- Do NOT have any other treatment(s) on the area for at least 2 weeks

ANY RISKS OR SIDE-EFFECTS?

DESOBODY

Most common risks and side effects are associated with injection of the product itself - that is, slight discomfort and a possible slight 'burning' sensation.

Any initial redness and discomfort should disappear after around 2 hours, although mild discomfort may persist for 48 hours. Swelling, tenderness, redness, and bruising in the area may persist for several days. 

Bruising is frequent.

Bruises / red patches may feel 'hot'. This is normal, and isn't any cause for concern unless you are otherwise unwell.

During the next few weeks, there may be sensitivity when the treated fatty tissue is pressed. 

Less than 10% of patients report transient nodules. These do not require treatment or intervention and will spontaneously resolve within one month.

LEMON BOTTLE

- Slight discomfort possible in some patients
