Zusammenfassung:The present invention is a cold solution for reducing adipose tissue or fat. Delivering the cold solution to a region of lipid-rich tissue induces the natural cell death of adipocytes and thereby reduces the tissue. Following cell death, localized panniculitis or inflammation of the tissue leads to further reduction as adipocytes are removed as a result of phagocytosis. The cold solution does not have ice particles. One or more additives, including salt, sugar, thickeners, freezing point depressants, surfactants, and excipients can be added to the cold solution to facilitate/enhance fat reduction. Fat reduction by cold solution injection can be used to improve one's appearance or to treat a weight-related disorder, such as obesity.
