“Lipolysis needle” to slim the face, reliable?

  In recent years, “lipolysis injection” has been hotly speculated. More and more beauty seekers want to improve excessive facial fat (“baby fat”) through the injection of “lipolysis injection”, to achieve the magical effect of “a needle thin face”. So, “lipolysis injection” thin face, is really reliable?  The “lipolysis needle” contains lecithin (phosphatidylcholine) and deoxycholic acid, which has a dissolving effect on fatty tissue. Some reports show that the injection of “lipolytic injections” to reduce fat in localized fatty areas of the body (upper thighs, abdomen, neck, back of neck, face) has been accompanied by a large number of related complications such as swelling, bleeding, skin petechiae, skin necrosis, infection, dizziness, and gastrointestinal discomfort.  The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Kybella (ATX-101), the world’s first and only non-surgical treatment for the elimination of excess fat under the chin (double chin). ATX-101 is an artificial deoxycholic acid, but because it destroys any cells it comes in contact with, the FDA has only approved it for use on fatty tissue in the subchin area, prohibiting its use in other areas, and suggesting that Kybella may cause serious side effects, including nerve damage in the chin area and facial muscle weakness.  Currently, “lipolytic injections” have not been approved by the FDA in China, and no finished product has been approved for lipolysis injections in China. Therefore, we do not recommend the use of “lipolytic injections”. At this stage, those who want to slim down their face and improve their “baby fat” through lipolysis injections need to consider carefully.
