* WHAT ARE SOME CLINICAL CRITERIA for MESO-LIPOTHERAPY ? The following patients are NOT recommended to be candidates for Meso -Lipotherapy : _ Currently Pregnant or Breast Feeding. _ Insulin-dependent Diabetes or severe Hypertension, Renal / Liver diseases. _ History of heart disease/ heart attack, arrhythmia, stroke, or on multiple heart medications. _ History of blood clots or currently on blood thinning medications ( Coumadin, Lovenox, Plavix, ASA...) _ History of any bleeding disorders including hemophilia ... _ Any history of cancer ( including skin cancer...), chemotherapy or immuno-suppression ( chemo / radiation therapy, HIV, AIDS...) or history of Auto-immune disorders.... _ History of skin disorders, active skin diseases or infection (psoriasis, eczema...), skin allergy like hives, angioedema ... _ Allergic reaction to SOY, Soy bean products, or any Soy components or derivatives thereof.... _ Allergic reaction to Lidocaine / Procaine, Vitamins... * WHAT ARE SOME INGREDIENTS of Meso-Lipotherapy Medications ? Most medications used at our Center like Lidocaine / Procaine, Toradol, Multivitamins are either approved by FDA or by state-approved / regulated compounding pharmacies. Very few formulas like some body naturally producing substances, phosphotidylcholine deoxycholate(PCDC), have not been approved by the FDA yet & are still considered as experimental / investigational " new drugs." However, both components of the same drug have been approved by FDA as separate ingredients used in the production of various other drugs including lung surfactant & and in the treatment of liver diseases...In fact, the FDA regulates the commercial sale & interstate distribution of medical devices & products and does not regulate the practice of medicine or surgery. It is at the discretions of medical communities, doctors and ultimately patients that decide what is appropriate and safe, & after encouraging patients to do own diligent educational search and obtaining appropriate consent. PCDC is allowed by various state pharmacy regulatory bodies to be produced by state-licensed / state-regulated compounding pharmacies. It also has been approved to use in Europe by their FDA-equivalent regulatory agencies. Indeed, it has been widely used by Emergency Room physicians in Europe over a decade to treat fat embolism or fat clots in blood vessels and heart diseases intravenously ( which is definitely more invasive and aggressive than injection under the skin as in lipotherapy.) In fact, it has been safely used by appropriately trained physicians in Europe over the last 30-40 years without any known reported death or life-threatening complication in hundred of thousand treated patients ( compared to 10%, or 1 in 10 patients, complication rates associated with invasive surgery. ) Both PC & DC are naturally occurring substances in our body and are found in all living organisms. PC is the most important structural support of cell membranes, providing the dynamic molecular sheets on which most life processes occur. It naturally forms 40-50 % of our body cell membrane phospholipids and provides important regulation of membrane fluidity. PC is also the main lipid component of lipoprotein circulating in our vascular system. It has surfactant properties that substantially protect the lining of lung and GI tract. It also has anti-oxidant properties that protect body against variety of chemical toxin. Our body naturally produces PC to help emulsify and breakdown of fat and cholesterol. Deoycholate (DC) naturally exists in our gall bladder , where it aids in the digestion of fat. |
