Fat dissolving injections, also known as lipolytic or lipodissolve treatments, are a non-surgical option to reduce localized fat deposits in areas that are resistant to diet and exercise. By using FDA-cleared compounds that break down fat cells, these injections offer a safe and effective method to contour the face or body—leaving you with a slimmer, more refined silhouette without the need for liposuction.

🔹 What Are Fat Dissolving Injections?

Fat dissolving injections involve the administration of a specialized solution—most commonly deoxycholic acid or phosphatidylcholine—directly into areas of unwanted fat. The solution works by disrupting the fat cell membrane, causing the fat to break down and be naturally eliminated by the body over time. Popular treatment areas include the double chin, jawline, jowls, abdomen, thighs, upper arms, and bra bulges.

🔹 What Areas Can Be Treated?

These injections are ideal for reducing small to moderate fat pockets in:

• Double chin (submental fat)
• Jawline and lower cheeks
• Upper arms
• Abdomen and love handles
• Inner thighs and banana roll (under buttocks)

They are best for patients with good skin elasticity who need subtle contouring rather than major fat loss.

🔹 How Do They Work?

Once injected into the fat layer, the active ingredient breaks down the walls of fat cells. These damaged cells are then processed and removed naturally by the body’s lymphatic system over several weeks. The treatment also induces mild inflammation, which can result in slight skin tightening in the treated area—an added bonus.

🔹 Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may benefit from fat dissolving injections if you:

• Have small, stubborn fat pockets that don’t respond to diet or exercise
• Prefer non-invasive body contouring solutions
• Are close to your ideal weight and want minor refinement
• Have good skin tone and elasticity in the treatment area

These injections are not intended for significant weight loss or for individuals with loose, sagging skin.

🔹 What Happens During Treatment?

Duration: 15 to 30 minutes
Anesthesia: Numbing cream or local anesthesia may be used
Technique: Multiple micro-injections placed evenly across the treatment area
Discomfort: Mild burning or tingling sensation, typically well-tolerated

🔹 Post-Treatment & Downtime

Some swelling, redness, tenderness, or bruising may occur at the injection site—especially in the submental (chin) area. Swelling is typically most noticeable in the first 48–72 hours and can last several days. Most people resume regular activities within 1–2 days. Drinking plenty of water and avoiding alcohol or high-sodium foods can support faster recovery.

🔹 When Will I See Results?

Visible reduction in fat may begin to appear 3 to 4 weeks after treatment, with optimal results typically seen after 2 to 4 sessions spaced 3 to 6 weeks apart. The destroyed fat cells are permanently removed, but maintaining a stable weight is essential to preserve your results.
