Fat Dissolving

What Is Fat Dissolving?

Fat dissolving injections (also known as lipolytic injections) are a non-surgical way to target stubborn pockets of fat that don’t respond to diet or exercise. The treatment uses a solution - typically based on deoxycholic acid - which breaks down fat cells in the treated area. These cells are then naturally flushed away by the lymphatic system over the following weeks.

At Crystal Skin Aesthetics, we offer fat dissolving injections for the double chin, jawline, and select body areas, allowing for gentle, effective sculpting with minimal downtime.

What Does It Treat?

• Double chin
• Jawline definition (jowls or lower cheek fat)
• Bra bulges (front or back)
• Abdomen
• Love handles (flanks)
• Inner thighs
• Upper arms ("bingo wings")
• Small stubborn areas that resist toning

Note: This is not for general weight loss, but for shaping and refining specific areas.

Who Is It For?

Perfect for those who:

✔ Are healthy but have stubborn fat pockets
✔ Struggle with a double chin despite being slim
✔ Want a more defined jawline without filler
✔ Want to contour body zones without surgery
✔ Are seeking gradual, natural-looking results

Treatment Time & Results

• Procedure time: ~30 minutes
• Downtime: Possible swelling, redness, or tenderness for a few days
• Results appear: Gradually from week 3, with optimal results in 6–8 weeks
• Number of sessions: Typically 2–4 sessions per area, spaced 4–6 weeks apart

Aftercare & Tips

• Expect swelling or a “full” feeling in the treated area for 3–7 days (especially under chin)
• Apply cold compress to reduce swelling in the first 24 hours
• Avoid vigorous exercise for 48 hours
• Stay hydrated to support the lymphatic drainage
• Gently massage the area if advised by your practitioner
