injection lypolisis

i had an injection lypolisis shot yesterday, the soreness and burning was only for 2 hrs, it stopped after that. i heard that if its not sore for a week that means its not taking efect? is it too early for sign to show? ive had one session but it doest seem to have worked.  does it not show effect after the first session?

Hello,
Injection lipolysis is a cosmetic procedure in which drug mixtures are injected into patients with the goal of breaking down fat. It can be sore of hours or weeks, depends on individual to individual. However, FDA, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS) have given health warnings against these injections.
