Fat-dissolving injections are a non-surgical treatment that effectively targets and eliminates localized fat deposits in the body. The treatment is injected into the fatty tissue beneath the skin, dissolving the fat cells.

Deoxycholic acid – the active ingredient in fat-dissolving injections – disintegrates fat cell walls. This results in the release of fatty acids that are naturally eliminated by the body’s lymphatic system.This process helps to reduce stubborn areas of excess fat, resulting in a smoother, more contoured appearance.

Treatment involves multiple injections into the targeted area where the fatty tissue resides. It’s an excellent treatment for double chins, bra fat, inner thighs, outer thighs, upper arms, and underarms. The required treatments will vary depending on the individual and the body area being treated.

At Clinic Dr Dray we use a range of different fat-dissolving injections. We’ll work closely together during your consultation to discern the most appropriate course of treatment for your unique needs, giving you the best possible outcome.

Fat-dissolving injections are a non-surgical weight loss treatment, offering a safe and effective way to reduce unwanted fat. They permanently reduce fat cells in the treated area and can target small pockets of stubborn fat resistant to diet and exercise. Unlike liposuction, this treatment requires no downtime, and results can be seen in up to six weeks.

These can include minor discomfort at the injection site. The side effects are generally short-lived and resolve on their own.

The effects of fat dissolving injections are long-lasting. The released fatty acids are permanently eliminated, leading to a permanent reduction in the size of the treated area. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential to keep the remaining fat cells in check and prevent weight gain.

The best type of fat dissolving injection for you will depend on your individual goals, the amount of fat to be targeted, and your overall health. Our doctors will assess your needs during your consultation and recommend the most suitable treatment option.

The technique used for fat dissolving injections involves precisely targeting fat cells in the treatment area using a fine needle. The solution is then injected, beginning the process of breaking down the fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated from the body.
