St. Louis Plastic Surgeon Timothy Jones Now Offers Lipodissolve as a Non-Surgical Way to Tighten Skin, Reduce Fat

October 31, 2006 (ST. LOUIS) – St. Louis board-certified plastic surgeon Timothy Jones, MD is now offering Medical Lipodissolve to those in search of a way to tighten skin, shed fat, and smooth cellulite without surgery.

Lipodissolve, or injection lipolysis, is a technique where a combination of substances, including vitamins and medications, are injected in the fat layer. The doctor administered substances cause fat cell injury with loss of fat.

"Lipodissolve is growing in popularity because it is non-surgical, with less downtime," says Dr. Jones. Areas of the body most often treated are the neck, "jowls," upper arms, back rolls, abdomen, and cellulite on hips and thighs.

According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, nonsurgical medical procedures have increased 726 percent since 1997, with Botox and laser hair removal leading the way. Americans spent approximately $12.4 billion on cosmetic procedures last year.

Genesis Cosmetic Surgery and Laser Center® was founded in 1998 by Dr. Jones. The office is located in West County at 456 N. New Ballas Road, Ste. 290, 63141.
