Process:
Fat melting injections, often containing deoxycholic acid or similar compounds, are administered into localized fat deposits on the face such as under the chin or jawline. These injections dissolve fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body over several weeks. The procedure typically takes 20-30 minutes and may require multiple sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart.

Pre-Treatment Precautions:

• Avoid anti-inflammatory medications and alcohol 48 hours before treatment.
• Inform your clinician about any allergies or skin infections.
• Avoid sun exposure and tanning prior to treatment.

Post-Treatment Care:

• Expect swelling, redness, and tenderness for up to a week.
• Apply cold compresses to reduce swelling.
• Avoid strenuous activity and alcohol for 48 hours.
• Results appear gradually over 4-6 weeks after each session.

Pros:

• Non-surgical alternative to reduce localized fat deposits.
• Minimal downtime compared to liposuction.
• Precise contouring of small areas on the face.

Cons:

• Multiple treatments required for visible results.
• Temporary swelling and bruising common.
• Not suitable for large fat volumes.
