Some mild discomfort may occur during treatment application due to the nature of this being an injectable treatment. You may also experience a deep warming feeling during treatment. Although discomfort is generally minimal, we can use a Topical anaesthetic to help with pain management should this be required.

Fat dissolving injections work by causing an inflammatory reaction, and therefore you may experience some swelling for up to 5 days post treatment. This is usually mild, and can be controlled using cool pads. Due to how the treatment works, you should not manage any side effects with anti inflammatory medicines as this will be counter intuitive to the treatment. You may notice some temporary reddening of the skin, or itching, but this is normal and will gradually reduce over a few days.

You should expect it to take approximately 2-3 weeks before you start to see a reduction in fatty deposits around the chin and jawline, giving a slimmer and less wobbly appearance to the face, helping to eliminate double chins and jowls. Final results will typically be apparent in up to 8 weeks. 1-3 treatments will normally be required to achieve your desired result, but this will be discussed in your pre-treatment consultation along with your expectations. This treatment has a high patient satisfaction rate.

This treatment should only be administered by a medical professional. Fat dissolving injections carry the CE mark, and have a strong safety record.
