How fat-dissolving injections work
Lipolysis is a process by which the fat in our bodies is broken down into a soluble form and processed through the body. Injections that stimulate this effect are called fat-dissolving injections, widely used to treat unwanted, stubborn fat deposits. These injections chemically reduce the number of fat cells in a certain area, leaving the patient with a slimmer and more defined contour.
The chemical injections are made from a substance found naturally in the body, which means there is minimal risk associated. When injected into the targeted area, they trigger a process called “apoptosis”, which refers to the death of fat cells. These fat cells are broken down and dissolved, before being naturally flushed from the body.
This procedure is a popular option for people who are seeking an effective fat-removal procedure without extensive downtime. Since the process is minimally invasive, it does not come with the discomfort and downtime of other more extensive procedures such as liposuction.
Your consultation
During your consultation for fat-dissolving injections, we will discuss your aesthetic concerns, ideal outcomes, as well as your medical history. These factors will help us determine if you are a good candidate and plan a treatment approach that best suits your needs. Patients should keep in mind that the treatment is not designed to lower their BMI or help them lose weight.
Rather, the procedure helps patients remove small areas of fat to achieve a more defined shape. For example, fat-dissolving injections are often used to refine the jawline or slim the love handles. If you have further questions about the procedure, we can answer them during your consultation.
The benefits of fat-dissolving injections
Lipolysis fat-dissolving injections are designed to reduce the appearance of stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. They are typically used to contour the face, neck, jawline, and body. Benefits of fat-dissolving injections include:
- Non-surgical and minimally invasive procedure
- Little to no downtime required
- Noticeably improves the appearance of fat pockets
