The launch of fat dissolving injections has many excited. Now we can finally get rid of stubborn fat that just won’t budge, no matter how hard we exercise, or how healthy we eat. Fat dissolving injections can help you to achieve a slimmer, more contoured body shape, with long-lasting results of between two and four years. The results are even longer if you maintain a healthy diet and regularly exercise.

Fact – they are safe

Our two fat dissolving injectable treatments at Artisan contain natural substances. Our chin sculpting injections contain a synthesised deoxycholic acid. This occurs naturally in the body and aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. Meanwhile, our general fat dissolving injections contain a substance called phosphatidylcholine (PC). Again, this is a natural compound derived from soybean. Both are safe to use and are naturally broken down by the body over time.

Fact – side effects are rare

Side effects of both injectable treatments are rare. You may experience swelling, bruising, itching, pain, sensitivity to pressure and excessive warmth at the injection site however, this is usually resolved within three to five days. Minimise risk by enlisting the help of a highly qualified doctor or nurse. At Artisan, all of our cosmetic injectable treatments are administered by our team of highly skilled doctors and nurses. They are masters of their craft with years of industry experience.

Fact – pain is minimal

As with all treatments that involve needles, the injections may sting for a few seconds, but generally, pain is minimal. We also always offer the option of applying a topical numbing agent to the treatment area to minimise discomfort.

Fact – there is downtime

The biggest thing to note with these forms of injectable treatments is they do require a bit of downtime with both treatments recommending taking it easy for three to five days. Want to know more?

How many fat dissolving injections can you have?

For the best results, you'll need between two and eight treatments, depending on the size of the area treated. Most common is two to three treatments, spaced four to six weeks apart.

WORKING WITH YOUR BODY’S NATURAL FUNCTION

AQUALYX injections break down fat in a controlled way, so your body can safely remove it through its lymphatic system. This simple and effective procedure shrinks double chins as well as improving the definition of the jawline. The treatment contracts the skin in order to achieve a more streamlined, youthful appearance. AQUALYX typically requires a course of two to four treatments with four to six-week intervals between each session. Although the procedure doesn’t hurt, you should expect some swelling which can take up to three weeks to subside. Although the fat doesn’t come back, AQUALYX should only be used as a supplement to a healthy lifestyle, and is only intended for dealing with small pockets of fat rather than for providing a complete weight loss solution. Unlike liposuction, AQUALYX normally leads to a degree of skin contraction too, so you’re less likely to end up with loose skin around the areas which have been treated. Check out our YouTube video below on fat-reducing treatments with Dr Sarah Tonks, Dr Kishan Raichura and Dr Euan Mackinnon from TLC 👇
