Fat Dissolving Injections
What Are Fat Dissolving Injections?
Fat dissolving injections, also known as lipolytic injections or lipolysis, are a non-surgical treatment designed to reduce localised areas of fat. The injections contain a solution of deoxycholic acid, which is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the targeted area, the solution breaks down the fat cells, causing them to be eliminated from the body through the lymphatic system.
What are the benefits?
Non-surgical
Fat dissolving injections are a non-invasive alternative to surgical procedures such as liposuction.
Targeted results
The injections are designed to target specific areas of the body where stubborn fat has accumulated, such as the chin, hips, thighs, and abdomen.
Long-lasting results
The results of fat dissolving injections are long-lasting, with many patients experiencing a reduction in fat in the treated area that lasts for several months.
The Treatment
If you are considering fat dissolving injections as a treatment option, it is important to follow these steps:
1. Consultation
Book your free consultation with Cosmetica Medical Aesthetics. During this consultation, we will evaluate your medical history and determine if you are a good candidate for the treatment.
2. Treatment plan
If you are deemed a good candidate for fat dissolving injections, we will create a customised treatment plan based on your individual needs and goals.
3. Pre-treatment instructions
Prior to the treatment, we may provide you with pre-treatment instructions, such as avoiding certain medications or activities.
4. Treatment
On the day of the treatment, we will apply a topical aesthetic to the targeted area to minimise discomfort. The injections will then be administered into the targeted area using a fine needle.
5. Post-treatment instructions
After the treatment, we will provide you with post-treatment instructions, such as avoiding strenuous exercise or massaging the treated area.
6. Follow-up appointments
You may need to schedule follow-up appointments so that we can monitor your progress and ensure that you are achieving the desired results.
