How does fat dissolving work?

During fat dissolving treatment you receive a number of small injections directly into the fatty tissue. The fat dissolving solution dissolves fat cells, which are then gradually removed from the body through your liver.

What is fat dissolving?

Fat dissolving is a non surgical cosmetic treatment that removes localised fat on face and body. This treatment uses deoxycholic acid to break down and eliminate fat cells.

This procedure is recommended for people close to their target weight but struggling with areas that don’t respond to a healthy lifestyle.

What can you expect during your treatment?

We start with a consultation to assess your target area and exclude contraindications.

We disinfect the treatment area and mark the areas for small injections. Injections are administered directly into the fatty tissue. The procedure takes 30 minutes. It is quick and painless.

You will receive an aftercare with printed out post treatment instructions.
