New Weight Loss Injection Method-Injectable Collagen Catgut Embedding

Acupoint catgut embedding therapy emerged in the 1960s. This therapy is a method of continuous stimulation of acupoints by burying a certain thread inside the acupoints to produce a therapeutic effect. Its long-lasting biochemical stimulation effect is about It lasts for 14-21 days, and has the characteristics of using thread instead of acupuncture, combining multiple methods, long-lasting effect, convenient operation, and easy acceptance. The new weight loss injection method, namely the injectable collagen thread embedding, has a long interval between each treatment, and patients do not need to travel to the hospital frequently, which improves the application scope of acupuncture and moxibustion treatment, and also meets the requirements of fast-paced and high-quality life in today's society, making it easy for patients to accept, comply with Sex is better. Under the spread of many treatment methods and the proliferation of various drugs, this new weight loss injection method, as a suitable Chinese medicine treatment method, has important clinical practical value.

Acupoint thread embedding plays the dual effect of acupoint and thread body

The results of an experiment showed that with the prolongation of the treatment period, the decline rate of each index in the catgut embedding group gradually increased, maintained a relatively stable state in the later stage of treatment, and the curative effect continued to the follow-up period. The weight loss rate of the acupoint catgut embedding group was better than that of the placebo catgut embedding group. Mainly because acupoint catgut embedding plays a combined role in thread body and acupoint, which can strengthen its biological stimulation and maximize the effect.

Thread stimulation is an important factor to exert the weight loss effect of thread embedding

1. Wire Materials and Properties

The material used in the early catgut therapy is limited to catgut, which has complex composition and great changes in performance. Collagen thread is added later, but the absorption pathway of the two in vivo requires the participation of protease, decomposition and absorption. The speed depends on the action of macrophage lysozyme at the implant site, and the absorption time is not easy to control. At the same time, because it is an animal-derived component, the tissue rejection reaction is large and infection is prone to occur. The medical polymer biodegradable materials developed in recent years are a class of materials that can be decomposed in the body, including polyglycolide, polylactide, polyglycolide, dioxanone polymer ether, etc., especially suitable for in embedding clinical practice.

2.The thread exerts a continuous stimulating effect

In the process of softening, decomposing, liquefying and absorbing in the body, the thread will stimulate the sluggish autonomic nerves and consume the body's energy, thereby promoting the decomposition of fat, improving the body's metabolism, and the effect of weight loss can be improved and stabilized. Thread-embedding therapy can regulate cell metabolism, enhance immune function, and improve circulation. Thread embedding can also promote the growth of vascular beds around acupoints, thereby regulating blood volume, improving circulation around acupoints, and assisting in the regulation of many benign mechanisms. Therefore, the thread body effect is an important guarantee for weight loss by embedding thread. Thread embedding can regulate gastrointestinal function, mainly by stimulating the electrical activity of gastrointestinal smooth muscle, thereby increasing gastrointestinal motility, promoting gastrointestinal activity, and promoting metabolism. It can also prolong the time of gastric emptying, thereby Suppress the patient's strong appetite, avoid excessive intake and excess nutrition, and play a role in weight loss.

Injectable collagen thread embedding is relatively safe and easy to accept

Obesity is a global public health problem, and it is not easy to obtain an ideal safe and effective weight loss method, so its treatment method—the safety and affordability of acupoint catgut embedding is also an important focus of research and evaluation. At present, there are many randomized controlled observational studies on catgut embedding in the treatment of obesity, but there are few research reports on the safety and affordability evaluation of catgut embedding in the treatment of obesity. The results of the study show that the safety inspection of this new weight loss injection method has no effect on the liver and kidney function of patients, and the safety evaluation of this new weight loss injection method mainly includes two aspects: the acupoint catgut has a lower acupuncture pain score. The adverse reactions of thread embedding are mainly local induration, but they are all absorbed by themselves in different time periods. Therefore, we believe that the new weight loss injection method-injectable collagen thread embedding method is advanced, has few side effects, and has a high safety evaluation. At the same time, the average acceptance of acupoint catgut embedding was high.
