Fat Dissolving injections

---

DesoBody and DesoFace are injectable treatments designed to dissolve stubborn fat in specific areas of the body and face. DesoBody targets larger body areas such as the abdomen, thighs, and flanks, while DesoFace is tailored for smaller, delicate areas like the chin and jawline.

Both treatments use a compound called deoxycholic acid, which breaks down fat cells. Once these cells are destroyed, the body naturally eliminates them through the lymphatic system, resulting in a more contoured appearance.

Ideal candidates are those who have localised areas of stubborn fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. It is important to be in generally good health and have realistic expectations about the results.

DesoBody is used for larger body areas like the abdomen, thighs, back, and arms. DesoFace is perfect for treating smaller areas such as the double chin, jawline, and cheeks.

Most patients see optimal results after 2 to 4 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. However, the exact number of sessions needed varies depending on the individual and the treatment area.

The treatment involves a series of small injections into the targeted fat deposits. The procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. Some mild discomfort or a burning sensation might be felt during the injections.

Common side effects include swelling, redness, bruising, and tenderness at the injection site. These usually subside within a few days. More serious side effects are rare but can include infection or nerve injury.

There is minimal downtime with DesoBody and DesoFace treatments. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately, though it is advised to avoid strenuous exercise and alcohol for a few days post-treatment.

Results from DesoBody and DesoFace are long-lasting as the treated fat cells are permanently destroyed. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle will help sustain the results.

While DesoBody and DesoFace can achieve significant fat reduction, they are not as immediate or extensive as liposuction. These treatments are less invasive, with fewer risks and shorter recovery times, making them an excellent option for those with moderate fat deposits.

Some patients may start to see results within a few weeks, but the most noticeable changes typically appear after the second or third session, as the body gradually eliminates the destroyed fat cells.

Yes, these treatments can be combined with other cosmetic procedures such as skin tightening, fillers, or Botox to enhance overall results. Consult with your practitioner to create a personalized treatment plan.
