FDA Warning - Lipodissolve Products

The FDA has sent sent warning letters to six medical spas in the United States - and a cyber letter to a company in Brazil - for making false or misleading statements on their Web sites about drugs used in the procedure, or for otherwise misbranding lipodissolve products.

 Janet Woodcock, M.D., Director of FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) says:

"We are concerned that these companies are misleading consumers. It is important for anyone who is considering this voluntary procedure to understand that the products used to perform lipodissolve procedures are not approved by FDA for fat removal."

The FDA website provides more information on the topic, FDA Warns About Lipodissolve Product Claims, with a downloadable pdf. 

I'm not a big fan of liposuction, let alone this approach using lipo-dissolving chemicals.
