Ceccarelli Solution contains Vitamin C, iron and lignocaine. In South Africa, it is manufactured by a global compounding company, Fagron. It can only be administered by a Doctor, and once the product is compounded it is advised that it should be used within 7 days mainly for stability reasons. The Ceccarelli solution, when injected, acts on the fat cells and causes a process of natural fat cell death or apoptosis.

During your consultation with our Doctor, a full medical history will be taken to assess your suitability for the treatment. The benefits and potential side effects will be discussed in full. The treatment can take as little as 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas being treated. The Cecarrelli solution is injected into the fat through a fine needle. Local anaesthetic is added to the solution for your comfort.

Immediately after the treatment you can resume your normal daily activities. The treated area will be red and tender with some swelling occurring. This is a desired response to the treatment. As with all injectable treatments, bruising may occur. Noticeable changes are normally seen after the first treatment. As the fat cells are destroyed by the treatment, the results are permanent. However it is important that you drink plenty of water and maintain a healthy diet during the treatment process to ensure effective elimination of the fatty acids.

The number of treatments required will vary according to volume of localized fat, the desired degree of correction and the individual’s reaction. On average, 1-3 treatments are carried out at 2 to 4 week intervals.

There are no major side effects after Cecarrelli Fat Dissolve Injections, as the process is that of natural fat cell death. However, there may be bruising (due to the injections) and very mild swelling.

• Do not apply cosmetics to the treated area up to 12 hours after the treatment
• Avoid all sources of heat and radiation (sunlight, saunas etc) for 48 hours
• Abstain from demanding physical exercise for 7 days
