Differences Between Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic's Herbal Lipolysis Injection and Lipolysis Injection

Lipolysis injections and herbal lipolysis injections can help to reduce localized stubborn fat that is difficult to lose with diet management alone.

A key feature is the ability to target specific areas for fat reduction.

*Lipolysis injections use chemical components such as phosphatidylcholine (PPC) and deoxycholate.

These components are injected into the subcutaneous fat layer, where they work to dissolve the cell membranes of fat cells.

This method directly destroys fat cells, leading to a direct fat reduction effect.

However, with lipolysis injections, the following points should be considered:

1. An inflammatory reaction may occur at the injection site, causing swelling, heat sensation, or pain.

2. There is also a possibility of bruising, skin hardening (induration), skin dimpling, or asymmetry in fat reduction.

3. During the process where the liver processes the decomposed fat byproducts, it may experience temporary strain, leading to feelings of fatigue.

It is important to be fully aware of these points and carefully decide whether to proceed with the treatment.

*Herbal lipolysis injections are formulated by combining various herbal medicines such as Ephedra (Ma Huang), Aconitum carmichaelii (Cheon Oh), licorice (Gamcho), and dried ginger (Geon Gang).

Specifically, Ephedra is known for its ephedrine-like effects, Aconitum carmichaelii induces thermal stimulation, and licorice and dried ginger are known to contribute to improved circulation.

This herbal injection works by activating the sympathetic nervous system to boost the body's metabolism and raise body temperature, thereby creating an environment where fat can be

naturally and effectively burned.

Furthermore, it can improve lymphatic circulation, contributing to the efficient elimination of waste products generated during the fat breakdown process.

Due to these actions, the following effects can be expected:

1. Increased Basal Metabolic Rate: This can be beneficial in increasing calorie expenditure even with low physical activity.

2. Promoted Fat Breakdown: It aids in fatty acid breakdown (HSL enzyme activation) within fat cells.

3. Improved Lymphatic Circulation: This can have a positive impact on reducing swelling and cellulite.

4. Indirect Appetite Control: Through its sympathetic nervous system activation, it may indirectly help suppress appetite.

Thus, it provides beneficial effects on the body in various aspects.

In conclusion, herbal lipolysis injection is

an indirect approach that creates an environment where the body can efficiently burn fat.

Its effects may appear gradually, with relatively few side effects, and can help improve circulation and overall body constitution.

1. Individuals who tend to bloat easily, or have a 'cold body' constitution and edematous physique which makes weight loss difficult.

2. Individuals who tend to overeat due to stress, or feel heavy due to sluggish metabolic function.

3. Individuals who wish to improve their body constitution by enhancing their metabolic function through consistent management.

Differentiating Factor 1: Treatment with natural ingredients to reduce the burden of side effects

• Our Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic's herbal lipolysis injection is composed of natural herbal ingredients that do not contain steroids.
• This allows for treatment with a reduced risk of steroid-related side effects such as skin atrophy or hormonal imbalance.
• The herbal ingredients can aid in fat breakdown and contribute to managing body shape in a healthy way.

Differentiating Factor 2: Use of 1cc syringes for precise dosage confirmation

• We use 1cc syringes to enhance the precision and reliability of our treatments.
• For example, if a 10cc dose is required, we use ten 1cc syringes to precisely control the necessary amount for the treatment.
• This allows us to clearly confirm the exact dosage, providing transparent and trustworthy treatments.

Differentiating Factor 3: Waiting time management system that respects your time

• To respect the valuable time of our visitors, we strive for systematic appointment and waiting time management.

Treatment Differentiating Factor 1. Precise confirmation of area and layer depth with a pinch test before injection.

The subcutaneous fat layer is typically located at a depth of about 5mm to 15mm.

If the injection depth is too shallow, the medication may remain in the dermal layer, making it difficult to achieve the desired improvement effect.

Conversely, if injected too deeply, it can irritate the fascia and cause pain.

Therefore, to enhance treatment effectiveness and reduce pain, the depth of the fat layer is confirmed with a pinch test before performing the procedure on the relevant area.

Treatment Differentiator 2. Medication is injected evenly and meticulously.

The medication must be evenly distributed within the fat layer.

This helps prevent excessive localized inflammatory reactions or skin depressions.

Furthermore, the overall body line can be more naturally refined.

Instead of injecting an excessive amount at one point, the dosage is finely adjusted and injected for even results.
