The difference between lipolysis injection and face-lift injection, these are different

How can a woman who loves beauty tolerate having a round face? Therefore, she will try every means to make her face thinner. Lipolysis injections and face-slimming injections are both common facial plastic surgery methods. There are some differences between the two in ingredients, side effects, indications and effects.

1. Different ingredients

The main ingredient in the lipolysis injection is phosphatidylcholine, which is extracted from soybeans and is a component of the cell membrane. It also contains insulin-like growth factor, which is also involved in regulating cell growth and differentiation and DNA synthesis, as well as L-botulinum and other ingredients; while the face-slimming injection is mainly botulinum toxin.

2. Different indications

Lipolysis injections are mainly used to treat facial fat, such as double chins, bags under the eyes, etc., or local fat in other parts of the body, and cannot be used for whole body fat. The face-slimming injection is mainly used to treat the hypertrophy of the facial masseter muscles and has little effect on facial fat.

3. Different effects

The effect of lipolysis injection is relatively stable. After injection, it penetrates deep into the subcutaneous fat layer and fundamentally breaks down the fat and discharges it from the body. However, the effect of face-slimming injection is limited. Generally, after about half a year, with metabolism, the injection will completely lose its effect, and the face will return to its previous state.

4. Different side effects

The function of botulinum toxin in face slimming has passed multiple safety verifications and has basically no side effects. It is a relatively safe and effective method of face slimming. Although lipolysis injections have good effects in dissolving fat and losing weight, some plastic surgery experts remind that the side effects of lipolysis injections in plastic surgery are not yet known how to control. In addition to side effects, it is still unclear whether lipolysis injections break down fat cells or simply dissolve and liquefy the fat, causing it to move throughout the body, thus posing a risk of worsening heart disease.
