Up till now, we are all familiar with liposuction and tummy tuck and the wonders that they can do. But for those who don’t want to go under the knife yet want instant results, fat dissolving treatments are actually your next best alternative. Read along to find out more how this non-invasive treatment can help you lose fats the safe way!


What are fat dissolving injections?

Fat dissolving injections, also known as non-surgical liposuction, are a safe and effective treatment that dissolves unnecessary fat cells in the areas where it is injected. These injections are commonly used to get rid of stubborn pockets of fats without having to undergo surgery.

In fact, it is actually very common among Korean men and women to use fat dissolving injections to get rid of their double chins and slim their faces for the coveted V-shaped face. Due to the effectiveness of these treatments, many are starting to use it for other parts of their body such as abdomen, thighs, chest, arms, knees and ankles.


Are you a candidate for fat dissolving injections?

If you have a healthy lifestyle and are not obese but have areas of stubborn fats which you like to remove, fat dissolving injections are your safest and best option. But of course, you need to be in good health too.

However, fat dissolving injections are NOT suitable if you:

  • Have diabetes
  • Are obese or have an unhealthy lifestyle
  • Have liver or kidney disease
  • Are suffering from skin disorders in the area to be treated
  • Are taking blood thinning medicine

Benefits of fat dissolving injections

Apart from eliminating stubborn and wobbly fats, other benefits of fat dissolving treatments also include:

  • Promotes blood circulation
  • Improves skin elasticity
  • Decreases cellulite
  • Permanent results (as long as you don’t gain back the weight and fats)
  • Improve self-esteem and body image
  • No downtime (Immediate recovery)
  • Non-invasive (non-surgical)
  • Natural-looking results
  • No incisions or scars
  • Almost no side effects

Fat dissolving injections procedure

Fat dissolving injection procedure is pretty simple and straightforward. Numbing cream is first applied to the area where the injections will be made, then the doctor injects the fat burning solution. The actual procedure only lasts a couple of minutes but the whole session might take about 30~40 mins, including the waiting time required for the numbing cream to be in effect.

Typically, a single session of fat dissolving treatment will not be enough to completely get rid of all the stubborn fat cells. For optimal results, 3~4 sessions of fat dissolving treatments at an interval of 6~8 weeks per session are recommended.


When can I see results from fat dissolving injections?

The fat dissolving process will take about 6~8 weeks before you can see the actual results, but the effects of the treatments can last for a pretty long period of time. In fact, its results would actually be permanent as long as you do not gain weight. Typically, 3~4 sessions of treatments produce the best results.


Fat dissolving injections recovery

Minor bruising might lasts up to 2~3 days. Major swelling is immediate for a few hours after the injections. You would also experience soreness at the areas where the fat dissolving solution is injected. Do stay away from strenuous activities, swimming, drinking alcohol or going to the sauna for at least a few days.


Conclusion

Everyone has stubborn areas of fat that cannot be removed by purely dieting and exercising. So there’s nothing wrong in getting a little help from the professionals! Furthermore, fat dissolving injections are safe, non-invasive and effective so why not?
