Regional Slimming Recommendations
for Stubborn Weight Loss
Dr. Elif İnaç from Infinity Regenerative Clinic stated that as summer approaches, people are focusing more on exercise and diet. However, she noted that for those struggling with fat loss, regional slimming applications can be effective. Emphasizing that there are many painless and gentle methods available nowadays, Dr. İnaç explained that during regional fat reduction, fat cells are killed to prevent them from regenerating.
Dr. Elif İnaç from Infinity Regenerative Clinic provided information about regional slimming methods and made recommendations for those wanting to lose weight.
Dr. Elif İnaç stated: "We most often receive questions like 'What is regional slimming? Does it really work? Can it replace diet and exercise?' Regional slimming applications are actually methods we use for people who are exercising and dieting but still struggling with fat burning in certain areas of their body. Among these, we most prefer methods like cryolipolysis, mesotherapy, and ESWT. In other words, we use methods that build muscle and strengthen muscle tissue. We also support these methods with IV therapy. We vacuum, freeze, and break down the fat cells in the affected area. Actually, after adolescence, the number of our fat cells doesn't increase. However, our existing fat cells expand, which is why we look heavier. When we kill them with cold, by reducing the fat cells in that area, we see slimming. With our applied methods, we can burn approximately 25 or 40 percent of existing fat. We can make our applied methods more beneficial by using high-dose supplement products. In some patients with lymphatic blockages, we achieve much faster slimming in the affected area through lymphatic massage," she explained.
CONSUMING GREEN TEA, YOGURT, AND PINEAPPLE INCREASES FAT BURNING
Dr. İnaç, who mentioned that there are methods to reduce cellulite, said: "One of the things most people worry about for summer is cellulite. Cellulite is both a fat and a tissue and circulation problem. In other words, it's a complicated problem. For this reason, cellulite problems need to be solved in a complex way. We have treatment methods that are very effective in cellulite problems through ultrasound waves focusing on subcutaneous fat cells, breaking them down, and increasing circulation, and patient satisfaction is high. Treatment is usually applied in a series of sessions, and the duration of effectiveness can vary depending on each patient's condition. Drinking plenty of water, exercising regularly, having good quality sleep, eating foods rich in vitamins and minerals are very important for us. Increasing green tea consumption, eating yogurt and pineapple also increases fat burning, so they help our applied methods," she explained.
TREATMENT IS CUSTOMIZED FOR EACH PATIENT
Dr. İnaç, stating that the procedures for these applications can vary from person to person, explained: "It can generally be applied to everyone. However, in exceptional cases like lymphedema, where the lymphatic system is completely diseased, we don't think it's appropriate to apply the procedure. That's why whether the procedure can be applied to a patient should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Although these treatments can be easily applied to many people, it's important to remember that regional slimming is not a magic wand. Supporting the process with diet and exercise will make for more effective results and help achieve the ideal body desired, which is why it's very important," she explained.
"WE DON'T ALLOW CELLS TO REGENERATE AGAIN"
Dr. İnaç, stating that pain varies depending on the type of application, explained: "In our clinic, we prefer extremely painless and gentle methods. Patients can return to normal life immediately after the procedure. In our fat burning methods, since we kill the cells in the affected area, we don't allow those cells to regenerate. This way, we achieve a permanent result. Generally, patient satisfaction is high. Fat in certain areas that doesn't go away despite diet and exercise makes people unhappy. Regional slimming comes to the rescue in this regard, appearing as a method that provides health physically and mentally," she explained.
"WE FOLLOW PATIENTS FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 MONTHS"
Explaining the patient examination and the process of deciding on treatment, Dr. Elif İnaç added:
"We first perform height and weight analysis for our patients. We take measurements and listen to them in detail. Are they exercising? How are they eating? How much water are they consuming? Do they have other illnesses? We evaluate them. We discuss the areas of their bodies they're not satisfied with. The feedback the person gives here is very important. After this evaluation, we perform fat analysis on their body. Then we decide. We explain in detail which method is most appropriate for them and why we're thinking of this method. If we make a joint decision about this, we start treatment. While some of our treatments are single sessions, others can go up to 8-10 sessions. As a result of these, we follow the patient for approximately 3 months. Our dietitian colleague also supports the process many times, and thus we create a personalized program for the person and determine what they need and how much. After that, we aim for beautiful results."
