Fat Dissolving Injections & Chin Sculpting
Fat Dissolving Injections are a popular treatment for getting rid of a double chin. When you are leading a healthy and active lifestyle, it can be frustrating to see pockets of fat in areas that just won’t seem to budge. This often includes underneath the chin. Double chin injections provide a non-surgical, non-invasive method of chin sculpting.
These injections work by reducing the number of fat cells in these stubborn areas to help you achieve what you desire with your physical appearance. The number of treatments required can vary and will be discussed in a thorough consultation with a cosmetic nurse at Clinica Lase. This procedure is quick, has few after-effects and there is no downtime associated with the treatment.
Commonly asked Questions
What happens during double chin injections?
Fat dissolving injections only take around 15 to 20 minutes. Patients will be made to feel comfortable and there will be a series of injections. This will allow for fat to be broken down and absorbed naturally by the body to reveal the desired look that the patient wants. The procedure is simple and will take place at the Clinica Lase clinic.
Will fat dissolving injections hurt?
As with all injectable treatments, injection may feel like a little sting for a few seconds. However, most patients tolerate fat dissolving injections very well.
What can I expect during a double chin injection treatment?
After fat dissolving injections, it is normal to experience some swelling and redness at the injection site. Whilst it takes several weeks for the swelling to completely resolve, significant swelling would normally reduce after 2-4 days following the procedure. In addition, the area where you have received fat dissolving injections can be warm and stingy. Again, this is nothing to worry about and this will subside without further treatment. While patients may require several treatment sessions, you can usually expect to see some results within a few weeks of the procedure. This is when the body will start to absorb the submental fat cells. Every patient will be different and you will be able to receive personalised advice at your initial consultation.
Is there any downtime associated with fat dissolving injections?
The good news is that there is minimal social downtime associated with fat dissolving injections. This means that you are free to leave Clinica Lase when you are ready after the procedure. Most patients do not need to take time off work and are able to return to their normal schedule straight away.
Who is the ideal candidate for chin sculpting?
Fat dissolving injections are suitable for men and women who wish to get rid of stubborn fat underneath the chin that cannot be shifted with a healthy diet and exercise. Some patients may require more than one treatment session depending on the amount of fat present. It is important to remember that while fat dissolving injections can break down excess fat from the desired area, it cannot correct loose skin. In addition, this procedure should not be used as a weight loss tool.
