Fat Dissolving
Fat dissolving injections are a revolutionary non-surgical approach to permanently reduce stubborn fat pockets that are resistant to diet and exercise. This minimally invasive alternative to liposuction utilizes active ingredients to break down fat cells, which are then safely eliminated by the body's lymphatic system.
Benefits of Fat Dissolving Injections
Targets Stubborn Fat Pockets
Fat dissolving injections offer a highly targeted solution for frustrating areas of fat that do not respond to diet and fitness routines. It is highly effective for common problem areas, including the double chin, jowls, abdomen, flanks (love handles), thighs, and back.
Enhances and Defines Contours
By specifically targeting localized fat deposits, this treatment helps to expertly sculpt and define your body's natural silhouette. It is particularly favored for enhancing jawline definition and reducing submental fullness.
Natural Elimination Process
The treatment induces a biological process (apoptosis) that permanently destroys the fat cell membrane. The body's lymphatic system then safely and naturally metabolizes and clears away the cellular debris over the following weeks, resulting in a naturally slimmer appearance.
Treatment Details
Non-Surgical Contouring
Fat dissolving injections target and destroy fat cells in localized areas, providing a permanent solution for body contouring without the risks associated with surgery.
How it works
Targeted Injection
An active compound (often synthetic deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring bile acid) is strategically injected directly into the subcutaneous fat layer.
Cellular Disruption
The fat-dissolving solution actively disrupts the membrane of the fat cells (adipocytes), causing them to permanently break down and liquefy.
Lymphatic Clearance
Over the next several weeks, the body mounts a natural inflammatory response to clear the destroyed fat cells through the lymphatic system, gradually revealing a tighter, slimmer contour.
Moderate Swelling
Downtime
Approx. 30 Mins
Duration
*Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results.
Final price is area-dependent.

Consultation
Your journey begins with a thorough clinical consultation to assess your suitability, physically examine the target areas, and create a customized treatment plan tailored to your body goals.
Preparation
The treatment area is carefully mapped out with a grid to ensure precise and even distribution of the product, and the skin is thoroughly cleansed and sanitized.
Injection
The fat dissolving solution is carefully injected directly into the targeted subcutaneous fat pockets using a very fine needle or micro-cannula.
Elimination
Following the procedure, the destroyed fat cells are naturally and progressively eliminated by the body over the following weeks.
Clinical Protocol
Optimizing Metabolic Clearance & Tissue Contouring
Preparation
Hydration is Crucial
Ensure you are well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water in the days leading up to your appointment to support your lymphatic system.
Avoid Blood Thinners
Refrain from consuming alcohol, aspirin, ibuprofen, or other blood-thinning supplements for at least 24 to 48 hours prior to treatment to minimize the risk of bruising.
Avoid Active Skin Irritation
Ensure the skin over the treatment area is healthy, intact, and free from active infections or severe eczema before proceeding.
Aftercare
Expect Swelling
Swelling, redness, and tenderness in the treated area are completely normal and actually indicate that the treatment is actively working to break down the fat cells.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water post-treatment to assist the lymphatic system in efficiently flushing out the destroyed fat cells.
Gentle Massage
After the initial tenderness subsides (usually after a few days), gentle massage of the treated area can help facilitate the breakdown and lymphatic drainage process.
Avoid Strenuous Activity
Refrain from intense exercise, saunas, and steam rooms for at least 48 hours to minimize excessive swelling and allow the injected product to settle properly.
