Naturally, we all have a stubborn pocket of fat that is resistant to diet and exercise. Of course, everybody is different and stores fat in different places, but one of the most common places is beneath the chin. If you are considering ways to remove chin fat, then this blog is for you.
Ways to Remove Chin Fat
One of the most popular ways to remove chin fat is fat-dissolving injections. These clever injections are non-invasive and work by targeting fat cells beneath the skin to break down the membrane.
When fat cells are disrupted, they become unstable, break down, and the fatty residue inside is eventually eliminated through the body’s lymphatic system. With a healthy lifestyle, fat-dissolving injections can be a permanent solution to remove chin fat which causes the appearance of a double chin, and jowls. Overall, the treatment can help shape the face dramatically, and enhance your confidence.
Because this is an injectable treatment, you may experience some moderate discomfort during treatment, but we may use a topical numbing cream to help with the pain.
Following treatment, you may experience slight tenderness and swelling around the area for up to five days. This is simply the body’s natural healing process and will clear up itself. Any discomfort can be managed with cool pads, but we do not recommend using any anti-inflammatory medications.
Are fat-dissolving injections safe?
Yes. Fat-dissolving injections are based on a natural substance known as Deoxycholic acid, which is found within the body.
Now, besides removing chin fat, fat-dissolving injections are also considered safe for use in several areas of the body, where you may carry excess fat, including:
• Abdominal fat
• Thighs (inner and outer)
• Waist
• Knees
• Love handles
• Arms
• Armpits
• Hips
Now, as fat-dissolving injections are designed for small exercise-resistant pockets of fat, they shouldn’t be considered a full weight-loss solution. If you have larger areas of fat or are overweight, you may want to consider a body sculpting procedure instead.
What kind of results can I expect?
With fat-dissolving injections, as the body takes time to eliminate fatty deposits, results may not be instant. You should start to see a difference around 2-3 weeks following your procedure, but full results will be visible after around 8 weeks when you should notice your jawline become sharper, more defined, and leaner.
Typically, 1-3 sessions are needed to ensure you achieve the best results. During your initial consultation, we will discuss the treatment and frequency in detail with you, so you know what to expect.
