What Are Fat Dissolving Injections and How Do They Work?
Effective Fat Dissolving Injections are a non-surgical method for targeted fat reduction. A special substance, usually based on phosphatidylcholine, is injected directly into the fat deposits to be treated. This substance dissolves the fat cells, which are then naturally broken down by the body. The treatment takes about 30 to 60 minutes and requires no special preparation. Several sessions spaced a few weeks apart may be necessary to achieve optimal results. The effects are long-lasting, as the destroyed fat cells do not grow back.

The 6 Steps of Fat Dissolving Injections
Before the injection, the area is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. The area is then marked and, if necessary, locally numbed to reduce discomfort. The injection is performed precisely in the marked area. Afterwards, the area is gently massaged to distribute the solution evenly. Finally, the area is disinfected again and cooled to help prevent inflammation and support the healing process.

FAQ
How effective are Fat Dissolving Injections?
Fat Dissolving Injections are highly effective for reducing localized fat deposits. The results are long-lasting because the treated fat cells are permanently broken down and removed by the body.
How long do Fat Dissolving Injections last?
The results of Fat Dissolving Injections are permanent, as the treated fat cells do not regenerate. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle helps preserve the results over the long term.
Which areas of the body can be treated with Fat Dissolving Injections?
The treatment is suitable for areas including:
Double chin
Jowls
Saddlebags
Abdominal or hip fat
Small to medium-sized, stubborn fat deposits can be effectively treated with Fat Dissolving Injections. However, injection lipolysis is not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet, nor is it a treatment for obesity.
Are Fat Dissolving Injections painful?
Discomfort varies from person to person and depends on the treatment area and individual skin sensitivity. The injections are generally considered minimally painful. A topical local anesthetic is used to make the treatment more comfortable.
