Injection Lipolysis (Fat Dissolving)

Injection lipolysis uses phosphatidylcholine — a natural phospholipid found in cell membranes — to dissolve fat cell walls in targeted areas, with the released fat then cleared by the body's lymphatic system. At Estetická klinika Hradec Králové, lipolysis injections are offered for stubborn localised fat deposits including double chin, neck, cheeks, above the knees, above the armpits, hips and stomach. Treatment involves 4–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, with results building progressively; the clinic describes fat reduction as permanent in the treated zones once the full course is complete.

Phosphatidylcholine (PPC) is a naturally occurring lecithin-derived compound that forms part of every cell membrane in the body. When injected in concentrated form into subcutaneous fat tissue, it disrupts fat cell (adipocyte) membranes, causing the cells to release their lipid content. The free fatty acids and triglycerides are then metabolised and cleared via the lymphatic and vascular systems — a process that takes 6–8 weeks to become visible after each session. At Estetická klinika Hradec Králové, lipolysis is offered for two price tiers: smaller, more precise areas — double chin, neck, cheeks — from 2 200 Kč per session, and larger body areas (above the knees, above the armpits, hips, stomach) from 4 400 Kč per session. The protocol typically involves 4–6 sessions at 4–8 week intervals, allowing adequate healing and lymphatic clearance between treatments. Most patients begin to see meaningful fat reduction 6–8 weeks after the first session, with the full effect visible after completing the course. Beyond fat reduction, lipolysis also has a secondary skin-tightening effect in the treated zone — the stimulation of the surrounding tissue during the dissolution process encourages local collagen production, which can modestly firm the overlying skin. This makes it particularly useful for the double chin, where loose skin is often a companion concern. The procedure is well-suited for patients who have localised, diet-resistant fat deposits and want a non-surgical alternative to liposuction. It is not a weight-loss treatment — it targets defined anatomical pockets rather than overall body fat. The clinic's mandatory 500 Kč initial consultation determines whether the target area is suitable, assesses the expected number of sessions and discusses realistic outcomes. Contraindications include liver disease, active infections, pregnancy and breastfeeding.
