Lipodissolve

I hope I'm posting in the right area

But I would like to know if anyone has heard of Lipodisolve or maybe SmartLipo. I am curious about Titan Skin Tightening also.

I am a very petite women and don't really need to loose weight. I just have a small bulge in my abdomen area that won't disapear no matter what exercise I do or how much fiber I eat. I know Lipodisolve is not FDA approved but I'm still curious.

I am very comfortable in my body MOST of the time, except when I want to wear that thight little dress in the back of my closet.

I wouldn't do it. It only gets rid of 1 cm of fat in the area, which is a little less than 1/2 an inch.

If you saw my belly you will think I'm crazy. There's barely nothing there just a small bulge. And no matter how much I sweat it won't go away. It's just a bit of loose skin for having my three children.

I was just looking around to see what options I had. I would feel safer if it was FDA approved.

Can you find the name of a reputable doctor and go for a consultation? That's the way to find out what is available.

I had lipo about 10-12 years ago. It was great, but I will never have a flat stomach unless I have a tummy tuck. The muscles are shot, and that's only after one child.
Well...and years of not exercising!

Why don't you just buy a controlling undergarment for that little dress? I have lots of friends who are young and thin but will wear Spanx when they think they need to look a little better! I've actually considered getting some myself... I'm still small too, and anyone would tell me I'm nuts, but there are little things I don't like about myself and I'd feel more confident out in public if they weren't showing! Personally I think I'd want to avoid any surgery or needles putting chemicals in my body at any cost. The risk would probably outweigh the benefit. Unless the stuff has been around for decades, there's no telling what it could end up doing 10 or 20 or 30 years down the road...

I'm in a big city so there are plenty of Doc's but I just wanted to do a little research so I wouldn't be like Huh?! going in there. And not planning on jumping on anything at the moment

No, it's not the same. That's why I had lipo, and wish I could do it again! I always wear a bodysuit. They do smooth out a multitude of sins, and I find them so comfortable. Much better than a bra, etc.

But...not the same!
