WHAT ARE FAT DISSOLVING INJECTIONS?
The appearance of unwanted fatty deposits can cause frustration and self-consciousness, especially when a person ensures they eat a balanced diet and take regular exercise.
Fat dissolving injections aim to reduce pockets of stubborn fat so that a slimmer body profile can be achieved. This prescription-only product can be administered to various areas of the face and body, including: under the chin, stomach, upper arms, thighs, hips, flanks, breasts and knees and can be administered in-clinic or in the comfort of your own home.
THE TREATMENT PROCESS
In order to obtain fat dissolving injections a consultation at The Facebible will be required. This will enable one of our experts to assess each patient’s individual concerns and recommend the best course of action. The type of injection used in this procedure is often referred to as a ‘skinny pen’, and contains a sodium deoxycholate solution. The fat cells are broken down by the inflammatory response that the solution produces, which are naturally removed and disposed of by the body.
AFTERCARE AND RESULTS
As the fat cells are destroyed and removed, the results can be long-lasting if a healthy lifestyle is upheld. Each treatment will typically require a course of injections that are administered weekly, under the direction of our practitioners. A slimmer figure will progress gradually, and the final results are often visible within 12 weeks that follow a completed treatment course. Fat dissolving injections are usually very comfortable and do not cause significant downtime, meaning a person can continue with their day as normal. There may be a tiny puncture mark where the injection was administered, so it may be advisable to apply the injection in a place where it is easily covered.
Faqs
Weight loss, or getting in shape can be a frustrating process for many who do not always get the results they desire, in a time frame that is preferred. Fat dissolving injections can assist in improving the contouring of the body for those who lead a healthy lifestyle but find they have areas of stubborn fat. You will need to attend a consultation at The Facebible to determine your suitability for this treatment.
Fat dissolving injections are FDA approved and are safe to use under the direction of a medical professional. They are made up of a compound of plant-based ingredients and the unwanted cells are naturally disposed of by the body.
An injection can be slightly uncomfortable, but the process is very quick and any sensitivity is short-lived. Most patients do not experience any prolonged discomfort and are free to continue with their day after the injection has been administered.
Your practitioner will explain what to expect after the treatment, which may include: nausea, vomiting and a temporary change to movements of your bowel. This treatment will only be recommended if it is thought to be suitable for you, and your risk of complications is very low.
The amount of injections that are recommended for you will depend on how much unwanted fat you wish to reduce. Typically, a course of up to 8 treatments are required to achieve the desired outcome, and injections are often recommended to be administered on a weekly basis.
