Fat Dissolving Injections
Fat dissolving injections are non-surgical treatments designed to reduce small, stubborn pockets of fat by breaking down fat cells so the body can naturally eliminate them.
How It Works
- The solution is injected directly into the fat layer
- It destroys fat cell membranes
- The body gradually clears the damaged cells over weeks
- Once removed, those fat cells don’t come back
Downtime (this is the big catch)
- This treatment is not truly “no downtime”
- Significant swelling (especially under the chin) for several days
- Bruising and tenderness
- Area can feel firm or lumpy temporarily
What they are
These injections typically contain deoxycholic acid, a substance that naturally occurs in the body and helps break down dietary fat.
The most well-known product is Kybella (called Aqualyx, Belkyra, etc. in different countries).
