Is there any side effect of abdominal puncture and thread embedding for weight loss

Abdominal puncture and thread insertion for weight loss may have side effects, including local infections, subcutaneous induration, allergic reactions, etc. Thread embedding weight loss is a weight loss method that stimulates meridians and suppresses appetite by embedding absorbable threads into acupoints. Although it has certain effects, it is not suitable for everyone, and improper operation may pose health risks.

1. Local infection

Thread embedding for weight loss requires puncture on the skin surface. If the operating environment is not hygienic or postoperative care is improper, it may lead to local infection. The symptoms of infection include redness, swelling, pain, fever, etc. The key to preventing infection lies in choosing a reputable medical institution, keeping the needle hole clean and dry after surgery, and avoiding contact with water or pollutants.

2. Subcutaneous induration

Subcutaneous induration may occur after thread embedding, which is caused by incomplete absorption of the thread body in the body or excessive local tissue reaction. Hardiness usually subsides on its own within a few weeks, but if it persists or is accompanied by pain, timely medical treatment is necessary. Choosing experienced doctors and high-quality thread can reduce the probability of hardening.

3. Allergic reactions

Some people may experience allergic reactions to buried thread materials such as catgut, manifested as local itching, rash, or overall discomfort. Before embedding the thread, it is necessary to communicate with the doctor about the history of allergies and undergo allergy testing if necessary. If allergic symptoms occur, treatment should be stopped immediately and anti allergic measures should be taken.

4. Other potential risks

Thread embedding for weight loss may also cause other problems, such as thread displacement, local bleeding or bruising. These situations are often related to operational skills or individual physical fitness. In order to reduce risks, qualified medical institutions should be selected and comprehensive physical assessments should be conducted before surgery, followed strictly by medical advice for postoperative care. Although thread embedding for weight loss is a relatively simple method, its effectiveness varies from person to person and there is a certain risk of side effects. For individuals with severe obesity, skin diseases, or immune system issues, this method is not recommended. Weight loss should be based on health, combined with scientific diet and moderate exercise, to avoid blindly pursuing quick results. If you have any questions or discomfort, you should consult a professional in a timely manner
