The FDA in the USA has given the go-ahead for a trial involving injection lypolosis which has become commonly known as fat dissolving. Essentially, various compounds are injected into the subcutaneous fat in certain parts of the body where there is an unwanted local accumulation of fat. The fat is apparently broken down and then excreted by the body. Various forms of this treatment have been in existence for sometime in the US but there are no standardised procedures or protocols in place. The study is to demonstrate the effectiveness of these treatments and to come up with the most effective and safe way of their implementation.
All current clinical reports in this area are anecdotal and have not been subjected to scientific testing. As soon as we have more information on this development, we will bring it to you.
