Dermastabilon - a drug whose active ingredient is phosphatidylcholine (phospholipid), a component of bile, responsible for the emulsification of fats, which enter the body through food. Dermastabilon widely used to remove localized fat deposits; it also reduces the level of cholesterol and triglycerides in the body.

Studies have shown that injection dermastabilona improve cell membrane receptor properties, improve insulin sensitivity The principles of action of insulin - the science of saving lives   and stimulate lipolysis. Prolonged monitoring of patients treated with dermastabilon showed that fat reduction is permanent; weight gain after treatment with minimal or absent. This study focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of dermastabilona as a non-surgical method of removing local fat deposits.

Patients and Methods

The study included 86 patients (82 women and 4 men) aged between 21 and 68 years old. Before therapy surveys were conducted, during which it was found that all patients are healthy. Patients with lymphedema Lymphedema: swelling of the legs after cancer treatment   and frequent edema associated with problems in the lymphatic system, in this study, did not participate.

Each patient was injected dermastabilona in one area; treatment consisted of one to three sessions. Under one field here it means the left or right thigh, left or right side of the abdomen, and so on. Before injections, the area of ​​body fat examined and measured volume of the solid in the art. Also, take photos, make it easier to monitor changes.

Once the patient's body fat deposits observed on the skin applied a local anesthetic containing lidocaine. Then, in the marked area was administered 5 ml dermastabilona; depending on the shape and size of fat deposits, and additional injections were made. The total amount of the drug administered per patient, was 5 to 30 ml, depending on the individual circumstances.

After 14 days after treatment, researchers again measured volume of the body in the area where the injection dermastabilona made. For best results, some patients and 14 days after the first treatment, additional injections did dermastabilona. Several patients 14 days after the second procedure was third.

Patients were asked during the test does not change the diet and exercise to reduce body fat was not associated with an increase in diet or stress. In addition, patients were not allowed to use other methods to remove fat. Patients who lose or gain during the experiment a significant amount of weight, were excluded from the study, and the results were summed regardless of their results.

Reduction of body fat

The decrease in area, which makes injection dermastabilona, ​​different patients ranged from 0 cm to 14.5 cm. The average volume decreased by 2.41 cm.

No change of volume was observed in 13 patients (5.06%). In 16 patients (6.23%), the volume decreased by less than 1 cm; 47 patients (18.29%) - more than 3 cm.

Side effects

Cosmetic improvements were observed in all patients, even in the absence of changes in volume in particular, have become less noticeable roughness on the skin in the area of ​​fat deposits. None of the subjects was no serious side effects. All patients reported pain, swelling and erythema Erythema - which means red skin?   (redness of the skin due to the expansion of capillaries), which are usually kept for two to three days after injection dermastabilona. Some patients also appeared hematoma. For two years after the end of the study, none of the subjects did not report an increase in body fat.

conclusions

Injections dermastabilona are obviously non-surgical alternative to liposuction for patients with small and moderate fat deposits that do not want to resort to surgical methods for their elimination. The research results suggest that this technique is safe and effective for the correction of fatty deposits. To decrease body fat was uniform, it is necessary to achieve an adequate concentration dermastabilona in the target tissue sites - it is possible, if done in a single procedure a few injections.

Despite its proven efficacy dermastabilona, ​​some patients respond to therapy with other worse. A possible reason for this - low sensitivity to phosphatidylcholine, but to confirm or refute this hypothesis, further research is needed.

Cutaneous injection for the production of collagen

One of the methods used to restore skin structure is collagen induction therapy (CIT-therapy) - is a cosmetic procedure based on mikroiglovoy therapy. In the skin of many tiny holes is done using microneedles that penetrate into the dermis and on its way injure and collagen fibers. These wounds stimulate the natural process of collagen synthesis at the puncture site.

Healing

During the healing process of forming new blood vessels, thus improving blood flow to the treated areas of the dermis. And, according to experts, the blood flow stimulates the migration of fibroblasts (the cells that make up collagen). Over time, the treated areas can be seen an increase in the amount of the protein collagen, which gives skin elasticity. With an increase in the amount of collagen body begins to produce more elastin, which is responsible for skin elasticity.

Effect

Aesthetic surgeons argue that increased production of collagen and elastin, improves the appearance of the skin, which becomes more elastic, supple and well-groomed. KIT procedure is also used to eliminate the manifestations of Acne Scars Acne: facial trouble As well as for the treatment of stretch marks Treatment of stretch marks: the impossible - possible?   and age spots.

The release date of the results

The results will not be instant. It will take three to six months before you can see the results.

Warnings

Currently, there are kits KIT for home use, but the best procedure for CIT may hold only a qualified beautician. If you do this procedure yourself, it can lead to the following negative effects: scarring or other damage on the treated areas of the skin, as well as to infection. So it is better to consult a dermatologist or plastic surgeon before embarking on collagen induction therapy. Any of these health professionals may recommend another way to combat wrinkles and sagging skin, such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion, dermabrasion, various soft tissue fillers or plastic surgery.

Produced by the human body is made up of collagen proteins. Collagen is a major component of connective tissue and is the most abundant protein in mammals, as it accounts for about 25% - 35% of the total weight of protein in the body. Exercises that increase muscle mass and stimulates collagen production.

The properties of collagen

Collagen is a part of the connective tissue and helps joints to move smoothly. Experts say that collagen is the major protein in the tendons, by which muscles are attached to the bones, so that the connective tissue literally holds together all the components of the body: skin, bones, ligaments, cartilage and organs. Collagen keeps constant muscle tone and can at any time to produce motion in the joints.

Exercises that promote the synthesis of collagen

Collagen production is equal to the synthesis of connective tissue. This fabric comprised of extensible yarns protein. Exercise helps build muscle mass and develop connective tissue. Physical training has been shown to lead to an increase in tensile strength and muscle size, stability and the possibility of injury to repair damaged ligaments and tendons, according to experts in the field of fitness.

Stretching exercises will benefit for the synthesis of collagen. The strengthening of the core muscles that surround the joints, is very important because these muscles with connective tissue form a support frame. Job, and accordingly, increasing muscle synthesis and is also accompanied by connective tissue.

Damaged collagen

Collagen damage often manifests itself in the form of arthritis. Arthritis - is an inflammation of the joints and connective tissues. Exercises that increase collagen synthesis and strengthens the connective tissue, can help prevent arthritis Arthritis - a variety of forms and complications And after diagnosis exercise can contribute to an easier course of the disease.
