Fat dissolving is succeeded with Mesotherapythat involves a simple series of injections which help break down unwanted small, localized areas of fat. This process of breaking down body fat is referred to as lipolysis. This method of spot fat reduction by injecting solutions into the skin is incorporated in many name-recognized procedures.
Fat dissolving injections work by breaking down cell membranes to liquefy the fat cell, destroying it permanently, releasing the lipids that are then eliminated naturally through the lymphatic system.
The fat dissolving injections are a body contouring and sculpting treatment, not a weight loss solution. Treatments with fat dissolving injections are only advisable for small, localised areas. Patients must be within one stone of their recommended body weight to have the treatment and be able to pinch about 3cm of fat.
The results of treatment are permanent under the condition of maintaining a constant weight measurement (i.e. assuming you don`t gain weight). Destroying the fat cells is a permanent solution provided you retain a stable weight, eat healthily and continue to exercise as usual. Fat injections lead to a permanent reduction of fatty tissue; once removed, fat cells will not reappear.
Benefits of Fat Dissolving
Fat Dissolving Injections are an effective treatment for the permanent removal of fat cells. Unlike liposuction, Fat Dissolving Injections often help with skin contraction in the treated area, meaning there will be less loose skin post-treatment. Fat Dissolving Treatment has many benefits leading to increased confidence:

Frequently asked questions
Aqualyx and /or Lemon bottle is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment designed to dissolve and remove localized fat deposits.
It is injected directly into the fat tissue, where it works by breaking down the fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.
Common areas for treatment include the chin, thighs, abdomen, hips, and arms.
The treatment involves multiple small injections administered directly into the targeted fat deposit areas. A topical anaesthetic may be applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure.
Each session typically lasts between 30 to 60 minutes. Multiple sessions may be required, depending on the size and density of the fat deposits, usually spaced 3-4 weeks apart.
6. How long does it take to work?
Full effects of Fat Dissolving Treatment will be seen 6-8 weeks later.
7. How many treatments would I need?
The number of Fat Dissolving treatments needed would depend on the size of the area. A double chin will typically require 1-3 treatments, and any other area on the body will require 2-8 treatments.
Mild swelling, bruising, or redness may occur in the treated areas, which should subside within a few days. Patients are advised to avoid strenuous exercise and to follow any specific aftercare instructions provided by the practitioner.
Gradual reduction in fat deposits will be noticeable over a period of several weeks as the body processes and eliminates the dissolved fat cells. Results can typically be seen after a few months, following the completion of the treatment course.
Treatment is considered safe when administered by a trained professional.
Following the treatment, you will experience some reddening of the skin for around two days. The treated area may be swollen f and minor discomfort at the injection sites or around 4-6 days as the treatment takes effect. Naturally after any injection, there could be bruising or minor aches in the area.
12. How long does Fat Dissolving last?
Fat Dissolving permanently destroys fat cells, meaning the fat won’t come back. If you gain additional weight after your treatment, any remaining fat cells will increase in size, but the fat cells that have been destroyed by the Fat Dissolving Injections won’t come back.
Having all the essential information you need to know before undergoing a treatment and understanding all these aspects, you can make an informed decision and prepare adequately for your fat dissolving treatment.
