Fat Dissolving Injections
What are Fat Dissolving Injections?
Fat dissolving injections work by breaking down cell membranes to liquefy the fat cell, destroying it permanently, releasing the lipids that are then eliminated naturally through the lymphatic system. The procedure consists of a set of injections (usually two), administered 3-4 weeks apart, whereby the targeted area is injected with a fat-dissolving solution.
Which areas can you treat with fat dissolving injections?
STOMACH (INC. SIX-PACK DEFINITION) LOVE HANDLES ARMS CHIN
FLANKS AND WAIST INNER AND OUTER THIGHS AREA UNDER THE BUTTOCKS (BANANA ROLL)
UNDERARMS AND ARMPITS UNDER-BRA AREA KNEES BACK
It is important to know that fat dissolving injections are a body contouring and sculpting treatment, not a weight loss solution. Treatments with fat dissolving injections are only advisable for small, localised areas. Patients must be within one stone of their recommended body weight to have the treatment and be able to pinch about 3cm of fat.
* The results of treatment are permanent under the condition of maintaining a constant weight measurement (i.e. assuming you don`t gain weight). Destroying the fat cells is a permanent solution provided you retain a stable weight, eat healthily and continue to exercise as usual. Fat injections lead to a permanent reduction of fatty tissue; once removed, fat cells will not reappear.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions will I need?
A reduction in fat deposits can be seen after just one treatment, however, you may require additional treatments (up to 8) to achieve desired results.
What results can I expect to see?
A reduction in fat in the targeted area can be noted from 4 weeks post-treatment. The speed at which noticeable results are seen will vary depending on the stability of the cell membranes; younger patients are more likely to see results after a longer period. In very small fat pockets, the desired results can already be seen after one treatment.
Who cannot have treatment?
As long as you are generally healthy and don’t have any skin diseases or infections in the area treated, there are few medical reasons why you should not undergo this treatment.
This treatment is not recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. It is also not recommended for those people who have been diagnosed with lipodystrophy or any pathological conditions.
