Intralipotherapy is a non-surgical medical-aesthetic treatment specifically designed to eliminate localised fat effectively and safely. It involves the infiltration of a specific solution into the adipose tissue that dissolves fat cells, facilitating their natural elimination through the lymphatic system.
It is an excellent alternative to liposuction for those areas of the body where stubborn fat accumulates, even in people with a healthy weight and lifestyle habits.
Intralipotherapy is indicated for treating fat deposits in various areas of the body, such as:
• Abdomen
• Flanks (“love handles”)
• Hips
• Inner thighs and knees
• Arms
• Double chin
It is not intended for treating generalised overweight, but rather for shaping the silhouette and reducing specific areas where fat persists despite diet or exercise.
During the procedure, a biocompatible and reabsorbable solution (such as deoxycholic acid) is injected into the target area using a fine cannula. This substance works by breaking the membrane of adipocytes (fat cells), which are then gradually eliminated by the lymphatic system.
The treatment does not require general anaesthesia or surgery, and recovery is quick, allowing you to return to normal activities within a few hours.
The number of sessions depends on the amount of accumulated fat and the individual response of each patient. Generally, 2 to 4 sessions are recommended, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart.
Each session typically lasts between 30 and 45 minutes, and while mild discomfort or swelling may occur in the first few days, the treatment is well tolerated.
Results begin to appear from the second or third week, and become more noticeable as the body eliminates the treated fat. The area looks more defined, firm and in harmony with the rest of the body.
In addition to eliminating localised fat, intralipotherapy helps improve skin quality, especially when combined with healthy habits.
