FAT DISSOLVING INJECTIONS
Fat dissolving injections are intended to address selected localised areas of fat. The product, treatment area and your suitability need an individual assessment. This is a discussion about a specific concern, not a promise of weight loss or a substitute for broader health advice.
WHAT CAN BE CONSIDERED?
The first step is to assess what is causing the fullness you notice and whether the proposed product is appropriate for that area. Fat, skin laxity and other causes of a contour concern are not interchangeable. A treatment intended for one area cannot simply be assumed suitable for another.
YOUR CONSULTATION
We will discuss your goals, health, medicines and previous treatments, and examine the area. You should be told the exact product, its intended use and regulatory status, the supporting evidence, alternatives and the expected limitations. Ask any questions before agreeing to treatment or a course.
WHAT HAPPENS AT THE APPOINTMENT?
If treatment is appropriate and you decide to proceed, the area and injection plan are agreed and consent is completed. The skin is prepared before the product is administered. Technique, comfort measures, follow-up and the amount used depend on the chosen preparation and assessment.
RECOVERY AND RISKS
Swelling, tenderness and bruising may occur, and visible recovery can be more noticeable than clients expect. Complications can include infection, persistent painful lumps, scarring and tissue damage. Product-specific risks must also be explained. Contact the clinic promptly for worsening pain, concerning skin changes or symptoms outside your aftercare advice.
RESULTS AND FURTHER SESSIONS
Allow the recommended recovery period before judging any change. The response, number of sessions and timing vary; no exact reduction or final contour can be guaranteed. Review both benefit and recovery before deciding whether further treatment is appropriate.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Is this a weight-loss treatment? It is intended for selected localised concerns, not general weight management.
Will it tighten loose skin? Do not assume that reducing fat will address skin laxity; this needs a separate discussion.
How many sessions will I need? A responsible plan depends on the product, area and your response, rather than a universal number.
