Fat Dissolving Injections (Lipolysis)

Lipolysis, also known as fat-dissolving injections, is a non-surgical treatment that targets stubborn fat deposits in areas such as the chin, abdomen, thighs, and flanks. The injectable solution — commonly deoxycholic acid — breaks down fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.

​

Why Choose Fat Dissolving Injections?

This treatment is ideal for contouring small, resistant fat areas that don’t respond to diet or exercise.
Once destroyed, fat cells do not return — making results long-lasting when paired with a healthy lifestyle.

Typical results appear gradually within 2–3 weeks, with most clients requiring 2–4 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart.

​

Common Side Effects

Mild and temporary effects may include:

• Swelling or redness around the injection site

• Bruising or tenderness

• Firmness or small lumps under the skin

• Mild numbness or tingling

These symptoms usually settle within a few days. Rarely, infection or nerve irritation can occur — which is why it’s essential to choose a qualified aesthetic practitioner.

​

Treatment Experience

A local anaesthetic is included in the injectable to minimise discomfort. You may feel mild stinging or heat at the start, but this subsides quickly.

After treatment, expect some redness, swelling, or tenderness lasting 3–10 days. Results improve as your body naturally flushes out the dissolved fat.
