Results after lipodissolve


When does one see results after lipodissolve?

The majority only feel pain and agony. Most do not see any change in their body. The vendors claim it takes 4-8 weeks to see results. You can wait all your life but the only thing you will see is your name in the doctor’s office that a sucker was here.

Lipodissolve to remove fat in one session


Can lipodissolve remove fat in one session?

There is no skin disorder or procedure in all of cosmetic surgery that can be cured in a single session. Like car mechanics, plastic surgeons set up numerous sessions until you go broke. The vendors clams at least 2-6 sessions are needed. Each session is spaced 4-6 weeks apart. If the first session does nothing, then you are a sucker if you go back for another session.

How does Lipodissolve remove fat?


How does lipodissolve work?

Once Lipodissolve has been injected, it is speculated that the fat pockets gradually break up and the fat is removed by the body’s scavenging system. The actual time to reduce fat pockets can take weeks or even months or never. It is claimed that once the fat disappears, the skin become, smooth, soft and flat.

Unfortunately, you would be hard pressed to find one person who has lost fat pockets with this fraudulent therapy.  It hardly works in anyone. All the media hype about lipodissolve is to sell the product. In fact, the majority of individuals do not respond to injections. The results are variable and not reproducible. It is impossible to know who will respond to lipodissolve. More likely than not, you will not respond

Lipodissolve to remove fat pockets


Can lipodissolve my fat pockets from the waistline?

It is claimed by physicians that one can lose a lot of fat and the waist line can be reduced anywhere from 2-6 cms (this is best described as Bull S..T). The vendors claim that fat loss occurs from the waistline, thigh and buttock areas only. One cannot lose fat from other parts of the body. Unfortunately, for most people lipodissolve only brings a lot of disappointments.

There are lots of negative testimonials on cyberspace. The claims are that the procedure is painful, expensive and a rip off. The majority of individuals say they would never undergo the procedure again.

Herbs for IBS

-->
Are there any herbal medications for IBS?

Sure, there are herbs to treat every type of medical disorder; the problem is many of these products are of poor quality and have never been clinically assessed. Just walk into any health food store and ask for herbs for your IBS. And I am sure, you will be offered more than a 100. IBS is a complex medical disorder, which doctors do not understand. And people who sell these herbs cannot even tell the mouth from the arse- so how one can possibly buy something to do with health from such people?

I would not recommend messing this already complex disorder with some unknown herb from China and India. Most of the ads about herbs for IBS have been hyped up and adverse effects are rarely reported. Impurities continue to be reported in supplements from both these countries. Beware of where you buy your supplements. The industry has run amok without any control.

Chinese herbs for neuropathy


I have heard that Chinese herbs are useful for the treatment of diabetic neuropathy. Is this true?

Whenever you hear the word made in the Orient, you should always question yourself about the purity and effectiveness of whatever is being sold. There are 100s herbs being used to treat Diabetic neuropathy. However, most of the published studies from China are questionable and hard to interpret. 


Anecdotal reports indicate that none of the herbs work. As of now, I would not recommend any Chinese herb for diabetic neuropathy. Go and see and endocrinologist and get yourself some prescription medications. In the meantime, protect your feet and wear padded shoes. Of course, you are free to try the herbs-if they work, do write back with the name of the herb.

Intragastric balloon for weight loss


Recently my surgeon mentioned that I could lose weight with an intragastric balloon. Any suggestions?

Most people fail to lose weight with diet therapies. Others are lazy and do not exercise. Drugs do work, but have serious side effects. Various types of surgery procedures have been developed to help people lose weight.  One old surgical method is to insert a silicone intragastric balloon. It is claimed that the balloon keeps the stomach full and one does not feel hungry.
So does it work?

Of course not. This is BS. Please change your surgeon. He /she is nothing more than a fraud for suggesting such an outdated crappy treatment. There is no convincing evidence that intragastric balloon helps people lose weight. The only weight you will lose is the 1000s of dollars from your pockets-because the procedure is expensive and there are no refunds if it does not work.  Remember, Some Surgeons and Wall Street Financiers have the same mentality-“how can we screw people?”
