Hi

My mum and dad were telling me about a programe that they watched on cable last night called Silicon Chicks.

Apparently a woman on it had some sort of injections in to her stomach to burn fat or loose weight.

Anyone know if this is true ans what was injected in?

Sounds like mesotherapy. Different types of Amino acid complex are injected all over the stomach area (or any area where they are needed). The formulas are different depending on weather you are trying to burn fat or tighten skin. The injections are actually applied to the skin with a very small needle. The number of sessions will depend on individual contidions. and they will be applied every two days. Exept for cases of major fat storage where the injections will be intramuscular, the number of cc's will be larger and they will be applied once a week. Does it work? Yeap. Not only does your skin get tighter but it gets beautiful. As long as you get a good technitian your results will be great.
 
In cases where there is allocated fat that is hard to remove, an I.V solution is mixed with a saline solution, and injected directly where the fat is (hips are the most common area for this procedure). Then a massage is given with an ultrasound machine to break down the fat. Does that one work? Yeap!! it works great and relatively fast.  My sister had these weird lumps of fat on her hips after she had her kids. It only took 4 sessions to remove them. The number of sessions will depend however on how much fat needs to be disolved.
 
Mesotherapy is natural and safe(as long as you get a proffesional to do it ) and helps skin regenerate itself.
 
Well, hope that helps.

Sorry I took so long to answer. I was out of town and without a computer.
 
You can definitly use it for the vanity pounds. It works great. You will be very happy. It is painless (of course if you get a good tech). You can't even feel the needle most of the time. And when you do feel it (some areas are more sensite) it feels like a tiny sting.
 
The cost varies by location. I didn't pay a cent. My friend is a cosmetologist and did it for me absolutly free of charge. However here in the states it can start anywhere from $600 to $1500. Depending on how many sessions you need and what you are trying to achieve.
 
This treatment is great and it really does work. It is totally safe and natural. You can research it on the net. It is better than any treatment, since it naturally regenerates your tissue. I highly recommed it!!
