Fat Dissolving treatments provide tailored fat reduction services without the need for liposuction or invasive surgery. Diet and exercise alone may not cause a noticeable reduction in certain small, localised areas of fat — such as jowls, under the chin, bra-line or above the knees — but professional treatment may be able to support potential changes in these areas.
Our highly experienced doctors and nurses will curate a bespoke individual treatment plan for fat dissolving treatments to suit your desired appearance. Target areas include:
Treatment may take several appointments for the desired outcome to be reached. Your result timeline will be provided during your initial consultation and updated regularly throughout the treatment plan.
While fat dissolving is often performed under the chin, the same targeted approach can also be applied to other small, localised areas of stubborn fat on the body. These treatments are designed for patients who are near their ideal weight but have isolated pockets of fat that do not respond to regular exercise or dietary changes.
Common fat dissolving treatment body areas include:
Our cosmetic doctors may use precise, small-volume applications of fat dissolving product to help contour these areas and create smoother transitions between surrounding tissues. As with facial treatments, several sessions may be recommended to achieve optimal results.
Fat dissolving treatments are not a weight-loss solution but rather a body-contouring option that targets specific pockets of fat resistant to lifestyle measures. During your consultation, your practitioner will assess the suitability of each area and develop a personalised treatment plan to support safe and balanced outcomes.
There are many great benefits to fat dissolving or chin sculpting treatments. Namely, that results can be long-lasting for some patients when supported by professional care and follow-up.
Other notable benefits include:
Since the procedure is non-surgical, it aims to minimise scarring in the treatment area. However, small incisions are still made, meaning there’s a rare risk of potential scarring.
Before undergoing treatment, you’ll receive a thorough consultation from an experienced Contour Clinics cosmetic doctor or nurse. This complimentary consultation allows you to discuss your goals and any potential risks and complications from the procedure with a cosmetic professional.
Once you’re in our clinic for treatment, the targeted area is numbed to minimise any discomfort from the procedure. Your doctor will then mark the treatment area to guide safe product administration.
Our fat-dissolving treatments involve a product containing deoxycholic acid, which aims to break down fat cells in a targeted manner. Once the product is administered into the chin area or any other small fat deposits, the fat cells in the area are destroyed by a process known as adipocytolysis.
This causes an inflammatory response from the body that stimulates your immune system to clear away any damaged fat cells. The destroyed fat cells are then excreted through your lymphatic system.
In total, your treatment session may take approximately fifteen minutes. At the end of your procedure, the doctor will gently massage the treated area for 2-3 minutes to enhance the distribution of the product.
Patients tend to see visible results 4 to 6 weeks after one treatment. However, it may take up to 8 to 12 weeks to see the full results of fat-dissolving treatment.
As it gradually dissolves, the process aims to leave the skin under your chin looking firmer and tighter. This may also be true of any other stubborn small area that has been treated.
It is recommended for most patients to undergo 2 to 3 sessions, approximately 4-6 weeks apart, to achieve the desired results. This is dependent on the individual patient and the amount of fat being dissolved.
To help support your double chin reduction treatment, you can also undergo our other facial slimming procedures.
