About

WHAT ARE FAT DISSOLVING INJECTIONS?

Fat dissolving injections use a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid — a naturally occurring molecule that breaks down fat cells. When injected into small, stubborn areas of fat, the solution destroys fat cell membranes. The body then naturally eliminates these cells through the lymphatic system, resulting in permanent fat reduction in treated areas.

COMMON TREATMENT AREAS:

  • Double chin (submental area)
  • Jowls
  • Bra bulge
  • Abdomen
  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Inner thighs
  • Upper arms

Process

What to Expect

A qualified practitioner injects the fat-dissolving solution directly into targeted fat deposits using a fine needle. The active ingredient breaks down fat cell membranes, causing them to rupture. Over the following weeks, the body processes and eliminates these destroyed cells permanently.
