Fat Dissolving Injections Melbourne

What Are Fat Dissolving Injections?

Our injectors administer a series of injections to the targeted area. Completely non-surgical, the process requires no incisions and is completed in a short day appointment at our Avenue Advanced Skin Care clinic.

The injectables themselves are a compound containing a synthesised deoxycholic acid – an acid which is part of the body’s natural digestive system. In the same way that acids in the stomach break down and digest fats, once injected below the chin, the compound breaks down fat cells which the body then absorbs and expels.

Benefits

The fat that collects below the chin and jawline is often a result of genetics, can have little to do with your body weight, and may not be able to be removed simply by diet or exercise.

Historically, the only definitive way to remove the fat from this area was through invasive surgical methods such as liposuction. However, since the introduction of fat dissolving to the Australian market in early 2017, we are now able to offer this non-invasive, non-surgical way to permanently remove fat from this area, reducing the appearance of a double chin with a simple injectable treatment.

Patients see a beautiful improvement to jawline definition, where the removal of fat creates a slimmer neck and chin area and can help restore a patient’s confidence in their appearance and side profile.

As the effects of fat dissolving injections are permanent, there is no need for constant top ups of injectables after the initial treatments.

There is no better non-surgical option to achieve this level of improvement.

FAQs

Are fat dissolving injections painful?

Patients may experience some discomfort through the injection process. However, our injectors are highly skilled in this treatment, and work to make the process as pain-free as possible. We can also apply a topical anaesthetic to the area being treated so the procedure is more comfortable.

Is there any downtime after the treatment?

It is normal to experience some redness and swelling after the treatment. This is the body’s natural process of reacting to the broken-down fat cells and rejecting them so that they are expelled permanently. In most cases any swelling or discomfort will subside after 1-2 days.

How many treatments will I need?

The amount of injectables required will vary patient to patient. In most cases, you should only need two treatments, 4-6 weeks apart to see a lasting result.

When will I start to notice results?

Most patients will notice a change after two treatments at around the 4-6 week mark. Once the fat stores have dissolved, the results are permanent.
