Common and Mild Reactions

It’s not uncommon to experience minor, temporary side effects. Most often, these can include slight redness, tenderness, or swelling at the injection site, similar to any shot. Some individuals might also feel a mild sense of nausea or a light headache shortly after the treatment, which typically resolves on its own within a day.

The Importance of Hydration

Some of the ingredients in lipotropic injections work to metabolize fat, a process that functions best when your body is well-hydrated. Dehydration could potentially lead to feelings of lightheadedness. We always advise our patients to maintain excellent water intake before and after their appointment to support the process and feel their best.

Your health history is a crucial factor in determining if this treatment is right for you. At our weight loss clinic, a thorough consultation ensures we understand your unique needs and can mitigate any potential risks. Being open about your medical history and any allergies is the most important step in ensuring a safe experience.

If you experience any symptoms that feel severe or concerning after your injection, it is essential that you contact our office or a healthcare provider immediately for guidance.
