Fat dissolving injections for Fat reduction in certain areas of the body...
Fat dissolving injections medically known as injection lipolysis is a non-surgical treatment used to ‘remove’ fat by dissolving them. Fats like other components in our body can be broken down into smaller parts, and the injection specifically does the job. The injection is usually composed of deoxycholic acid, which can remove fat in the area by fat cell disruption and fat cell death.
This procedure is incredibly effective in the treatment of localized fat, meaning, we can target specific areas of the body where the patient desires to reduce the fat. A local anesthetic cream may be applied to the area before injecting to make the procedure painless. This treatment is commonly used in areas that are very hard to burn even in exercises such as the chin, thighs, and abdomen.
This procedure also has no downtime, meaning you can immediately resume your daily activities after your appointment. However, like any other procedure, you can expect some mild, redness, bruising, and swelling on the affected area. Most patients have at least two treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, which is also the duration when the swelling and bruising are fully healed.
