With Lipolysis injection, a series of micro-injections are injected to dissolve fat deposits on the face mainly under chin and body. It is an effective treatment option for treating localized fat reduction without surgery. Lipolysis micro-injections target fat deposits. When injections are done to the fat area you wish to have reduced, the medications in the injections initiate the fat to gradually loosen, liquefy and finally dissolve and eliminate through the natural process. The chemical, called deoxycholic acid, results in fat cell disruption and death.

Our doctor will thoroughly assess the area to ensure you are a suitable candidate for this treatment. After a consultation and assessment, the area will be marked up according to the injection site to determine the dosage and number of injections required. The treatment is a quick procedure which that typically takes 15 to 20 minutes. Patients can expect to experience some discomfort with this procedure which will settle quickly post procedure.
Many patients treated with injection lipolysis experience visible improvement of their chin profile in 2-4 treatments. Some patients may require up to 6 treatments to achieve their optimal result. Each treatment is spaced one month apart.
Depending on the body area treated, patients often return to normal activity immediately after treatment. Patients having facial treatments for a double chin or facial fat will have extensive and unattractive swelling and may wish to stay off from work 3-4 days although this is not necessary. The normal time for swelling and soreness to disappear is one week. Some minor swelling may persist longer.
