Alfocholin

Alfocholin

The innovative fat-dissolving injection known as "Alfocholin" represents a significant advancement in pharmaceuticals due to its high safety and efficacy levels. Unlike traditional fat-soluble injections like BNLS, Alfocholin, derived from natural soybean ingredients such as Glycerophosporylcholine (GPC), has gained pharmaceutical approval from various health authorities, including the Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare in several countries like KFDA.

Alfocholin boasts several distinctive features:

1. It directly targets fat cell membranes, reducing their numbers and effectively minimizing size without the risk of rebound.
2. Unlike fat-soluble injections that often lead to side effects lasting about a week, Arphocoline, being water-soluble, minimizes tissue damage and downtime to only 1 to 2 days, with negligible side effects such as pain, swelling, or heat sensation.
3. Its water-soluble nature enables it to penetrate narrow tissue gaps, expanding its applicability to areas with minimal fat tissue.
4. Unlike conventional fat-soluble drugs, it can be applied not only to facial areas but also to the entire body.
5. Endorsed by the KFDA for treating cerebrovascular disorders through intramuscular or intravenous injection, affirming its safety profile.
6. Ideal for contouring difficult-to-reach areas such as upper arms, thighs, sides, double chins, cheeks, and facial lines.
7. Offers a non-invasive alternative to surgical procedures like liposuction or equipment-dependent methods like fat freezing, ensuring affordability, safety, and minimal discomfort.

Areas suitable for treatment include the face (except around the eyes), abdomen, sides, inner thighs, upper arms, and hips.

On the Alfocholin treatment day, precautions include expected swelling, which typically resolves within 2 to 4 hours, and post-treatment care involves light massage and refraining from strenuous activities, alcohol consumption, and sauna use.

The treatment process involves initial examination, preparation, the injection procedure using a specialized thin needle, and post-treatment assessment. A standard treatment regimen involves three sessions every two to four weeks, with an average of five to six sessions required for optimal results.

Possible side effects like headache, dizziness, nausea, or temporary redness and swelling typically subside within a few days. Makeup can be applied immediately post-procedure, and showering is permissible unless there are numerous injections, in which case it's advisable only on the treatment day.

Contraindications of Alfocholin include soy allergy, pregnancy, lactation, orthostatic hypotension, and Parkinson's disease.
