Injectable Lipolysis (Fat Dissolving)

Injectable lipolysis uses a solution injected into small, stubborn pockets of fat to help break them down gradually, used for areas that resist diet and exercise such as a double chin or the inner thighs. At CME Anti-Aging it is offered for the chin, arms, abdomen and thighs. It is not a weight-loss treatment and works best as a series of sessions on localised, well-defined areas.

Injectable lipolysis is a non-surgical treatment in which a fat-dissolving solution is injected directly into small, localised deposits of fat. The solution is intended to disrupt the membranes of fat cells in the treated pocket so that the contents are gradually cleared by the body over the following weeks. It is used for well-defined, stubborn areas that resist diet and exercise — such as a fuller area under the chin, the inner thighs or a soft lower abdomen — rather than as a method of general weight loss. At CME Anti-Aging in Stargard the area is marked and the injections placed with a fine needle across a grid; a session is short, typically around twenty to thirty minutes. It is normal to have swelling, tenderness, warmth and sometimes bruising in the treated area for several days afterwards, as this local reaction is part of how the treatment is thought to work. Because the effect is gradual and limited to what can be treated safely at one time, a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart is usually required, and results depend on the area and the individual. The clinic offers injectable lipolysis for the chin, the triceps area of the arms, the abdomen and the thighs, with prices listed per zone. The treatment suits people close to a stable, healthy weight who have specific localised pockets they want to address; it is not suitable in pregnancy or certain medical conditions, and suitability is assessed by the physician beforehand. Outcomes vary between individuals.
