Say Goodbye to Stubborn Fat with PCDC

Are you struggling with stubborn fat? Tried diet and exercise and it just won’t budge? This may be the treatment you need! An injectable that can destroy those fat cells and help get rid of hard to lose fat. Let’s learn more about what PCDC is — and if it’s the right treatment for you.

What is PCDC?

PCDC stands for phosphatidyl choline and deoxycholic acid. A compounded injectable that works to reduce areas of unwanted fat. PCDC works by destroying the fat cells which are then naturally eliminated by your body over 8 weeks. Once these cells are destroyed, they can no longer store or accumulate fat. Important to note, this is not a weight loss treatment. Number of sessions vary patient to patient and differ on area being treated.

What Areas Can Be Treated?

PCDC can be used in areas such as: under the chin (submental fat), love handles, abdomen, thighs, bra bulge, upper arms.

What Is The Procedure Like?

First, you will come in for a consultation to determine if you are the right candidate for this treatment. Depending on the area, you may be numbed. The area is then prepped and cleansed and injected!

What Should I Expect After My Appointment?

Moderate swelling is normal and expected for up to 7-10 days. There may be mild pain, bruising, warmth, numbness, redness, and areas of hardness (induration). These are all expected and normal. Avoid alcohol and blood thinning medications for 24 hours. Avoid icing the area for more than 15 minutes at a time. If needed to ice, apply ice wrapped in a cloth for 10 minutes every hour. Avoid strenuous exercise the day of treatment. Avoid rubbing the area for the first 48 hours. If discomfort or pain occurs, Tylenol can be taken.
