Sculpt the perfect profile How Do the Injections Work?

Our fat dissolving injections Sydney treatment involves a product that contains deoxycholic acid which works by breaking down cells in fatty tissue. Once the product is injected into the submental fat cell (double chin area) or any other small fat pocket of concern, the fat cells in the area are permanently 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 PERMANENTLY. The destroyed fat cells are excreted through your lymphatic system to never return.

Prior to fat dissolving injections, a comprehensive consultation is required with one of our expert doctors or nurses. The treatment is then performed in any one of our luxury clinics and takes approximately 15 minutes. The area of concern is iced to minimise any discomfort of fat dissolving injections. The doctor will then mark the treatment area to guide safe injection. A series of tiny needles or 2-3 cannulae are used to deliver the fat dissolving product. The amount of product required depends on the patient and how much fat needs to be dissolved. At the end of your treatment, the doctor will gently massage the injected area for 2-3 minutes to enhance the distribution of the product.

Results of fat dissolving injections take up to 4 to 6 weeks to be seen, and most patients require between 2 to 3 sessions for the best possible results.

The Benefits of Injections for Fat Dissolving Treatment

There are many great benefits to fat dissolving injections or chin sculpting treatment. The biggest advantage is that the results are permanent. Once the fat cells have been destroyed, they are permanently removed from your body. The results of fat dissolving injections show visible improvement to stubborn fat areas over time. The fat is eliminated from the body quickly over a few weeks. As it gradually dissolves, the process leaves the skin under your chin looking firmer and tighter. This is also true of any other stubborn small area that has been treated.

Due to the non-surgical nature of the treatment, there are no signs of incisions or scarring after your treatment and no general anaesthetic is required. The treatment iswith fat dissolving injections is relatively quick and natural as it uses deoxycholic acid – a natural substance already produced by liver, which is used by the body to aid in the digestion of dietary fats.

How Many Treatments Are Needed?

Most patients who undergo the Fat Burning Injections at Contour Clinics see visible improvements 4 to 6 weeks after one treatment. However, it takes up to 8 to 12 weeks to see maximum results of fat dissolving injections.

Depending on the individual and the amount of fat to be dissolved, it is recommended for most patients to undergo 2 to 3 sessions, approximately 4-6 weeks apart, to achieve the desired results. After your initial consultation with one of our doctors, you will be provided with an accurate indication of how many injections are required.

Can the Injections Remove a Double Chin?

Our Fat Dissolving treatment in Sydney is an effective and popular treatment among patients who value natural-looking enhancements and non-surgical solutions to getting rid of an unwanted double chin. As the treatment uses naturally occurring digestion products from our body, when delivered in expert hands the treatment provides a natural result without affecting facial expressions or natural facial features.

These fat dissolving injections are extremely effective for dissolving excess fat around the neck, chin and jaw as it permanently destroys the fat cells that have accumulated in the area. Once these cells are destroyed, they are permanently excreted over the course of 4-12 weeks and once gone will NEVER return. As the body reacts to the fat dissolving injections, the skin also tightens and firms around the neck, chin and jaw due to increased collagen production. While one session of fat dissolving injections shows visible results on any treated fat cell, those who undergo at least 2 to 3 sessions see dramatic results in the elimination of their double chin and significant enhancement to their facial profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do These Injections Permanently Remove Double Chin Fat?

Yes, the fat dissolving injections destroy double chin fat as they target fat cells. Once fat cells have been destroyed, they are permanently removed and will never return.

What Are the Causes of Double Chin?

A double chin is a result of excess weight and fat which usually occurs when the fat in your full face has nowhere else to go except under it. Being overweight does not necessarily result in a double chin, but it does increase the likelihood of forming one. It is important to note that there are also many other factors that can contribute to double chins such as aging skin losing muscular definition, a recessed chin, poor posture weakening the muscles around the neck and reducing jowl elasticity, facial structure and genetics.

Do Fat Dissolving Treatments Cause Loose Skin?

No, the treatment with fat dissolving injections will not cause loose skin. Our patients here at Contour Clinics have seen that not only does the fat permanently dissolve after treatment, but the loose skin under the chin may also retract and tighten in cases of very mild skin laxity. This is often due to the inflammatory reactions that stimulate collagen production in the area. This then results in the tightening of the skin.

How Long Does the Procedure Take?

The treatment takes approximately 15 minutes in clinic with any extra time given for numbing as requested by the patient. A tiny needle or cannula is used by the clinician to place small quantities of the product into the fat under the skin in the desired treatment area. The procedure does involve a small amount of downtime where the patient should refrain from any strenuous physical activity or exercise for 3 to 5 days after treatment.

Are Fat Burning Injections Painful?

There is minimal pain involved in this procedure as only ultra-thin needles or cannulae are used to target the double chin. We ice the neck before fat dissolving injections to help numb the skin as, after the injections, the area can feel warm.

Topical numbing cream or happy gas (nitrous oxide) is offered upon request for any concerned patients to reduce fat dissolving injections discomfort.

What Are the Potential Side Effects of Fat Dissolving Injections?

There are no major side effects from the Fat Dissolving treatment. Swelling is expected around the treatment area that generally peaks at 48 hours post-treatment with fat dissolving injections and settles within a week. During this, we recommend icing the skin and resting by reducing any strenuous activity or physical exercise. Bruising, itching, slight numbness and sensitivity to pressure and excessive warmth to the injection site are also common and usually goes down in 3 to 5 days.
