Are you too scared for liposuction, but still looking for a quick and effortless way to get rid of that extra tummy fat?International plastic and cosmetic surgeons are currently offering Lipostabil, an injectable form of the nutritional supplement Lecithin (a.k.a. Phosphatidylcholine) to combat localized areas of unwanted fat.Treatments cost in the range of $1,000 to $1,500 per area to be treated, and the average person requires between two and six treatments per area to see noticeable reduction in fatty deposits.
Obviously, Lipostabil treatments aren’t such a reasonable option for a person who has large amounts of fat in various areas of the body, but it is good to get rid of rolls, paunches and facial fat like double chins, puffy cheeks or fat-filled bags under the eyes.
Excited? Wait…it gets better! You can actually buy Lipostabil “Kits” and give yourself the treatments…cutting out the middle man and saving a whole bunch of cash. However, this is not for the squeamish. Lipostable is an injectable treatment. So, as long as you have the intestinal fortitude to jab yourself every day for a couple of weeks to melt away your fat, Lipostabil may be for you!
Unfortunately, the jury is still out when it comes to questions like “Are the results permanent?”, and “What are the side effects?”…two very important questions.
The treatments are done commonly in Europe and South America (two areas of the world that always get the good stuff before the States). However, the FDA has not yet approved it for use in the USA. Some doctors are reportedly going overseas to load up on the stuff and bringing it back to offer their patients anyway.
