Dissolve Fat With an Injection - Surely Not?

Saira Rehman

If you’ve ever struggled to lose stubborn fat in spite of doing everything right by way of following a healthy diet and exercise plan, you’ll understand the frustration that unwanted pockets of fat can cause. Excess pockets of fat are not uncommon, many people accumulate fatty deposits around the chin, thighs, arms, waist and sides. Even though with really low body fat can still struggle to loose fat in specific places. It’s in these circumstances, when your lifestyle choices are good and you’ve tried dieting and exercise that non-surgical fat removal treat

Fat Dissolving Treatment Areas

ment can be helpful. Fat dissolving injections enable us to target the destruction of unwanted fat cells in areas that have proven hard to shift without the need for surgery.


At Resolve Aesthetics we offer fat dissolving injections that can help you to refine and contour the body you’ve been trying to uncover.




What Are Fat Dissolving Injections?

Fat dissolving injections are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that aim to reduce unwanted fat around the body the that have proven difficult to otherwise remove. There are different brands of fat dissolving injections on the market but I’m going to focus on the three most commonly used ones in the UK; Aqualyx, Cincelar+ and Lemonbottle. Fat dissolving injections permanently destroy the fat cells from the site where they are injected. Patients can see significant results without the risks or downtime associated with surgery.


What’s the Difference Between Brands

Aqualyx and Cincelar+ contain a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring acid that's found in the gut. Deoxycholic acid works in the gut to to break down fat in our diet. Fat-dissolving injections mimic this process . When injected locally it marks the fat cell for breakdown, damaging the fat cell which then signals to other cells to come along and digest it, et voila! Once broken down, the body naturally disposes of them through the lymphatic drainage system.


Lemonbottle used naturally occurring ingredients - for the same outcome. It contains a high concentration of Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) which induces the start of fat metabolism, Lecithin to destroy and transport the fat cells, and Bromelian which helps to break down the fat and rid inflamamtion.


The main differences between the products is not in my opinion the overall outcome/rsults but the time taken to see results and the comfort/downtime they induce.


Aqualyx is painful and has to be mixed with numbing agents in order to be tolerated. This means more chemicals are being introduced to the body which ultimately means more risk of reactions. Aqualyx also produces a significant amount of swelling after treatment sessions, accompanied quite often by redness and itching in the area injected for around 7-10 days. Treatments are repeated every 4 weeks with an average of 3-6 treatments needed. The results however are not to be denied.

Cincelar+ offers all the positives of Aqualyx without the downtime. It’s; painless, doesn’t require mixing, invokes minimal swelling, redness or itching in the areas treated. Treatment schedules are again 3-6 sessions per area but can be repeated every 3 weeks instead of 4.

Lemonbottle is one of the newest lipolysis treatments on the market, a Korean product that is also painless to inject, doesn’t require mixing of have any of the unpleasant after effects that we see with Aquaklyx, but get this, results are noted from 24 hours after treatment and can be repeated weekly. So the results are produced SO much more quickly than with the other two products!

Fat Dissolving Treatment at Resolve

We offer fat dissolving treatment at all 3 of our clinics; Sutton Coldfield, Stafford and Birmingham. Our fat removal injection treatments are safe and comfortable for patients. Most treatments are delivered while you like down, some require you to sit or stand depending on the area we are treating. We use high quality needles, that are very fine to make the treatment as painless as possible. We can also use topical numbing cream beforehand if you are worried about discomfort, but it is generaly not needed. The injection sites are marked out and then cleaned thoroughly before the injections are gently administered into the to the problem areas. People often ask us how many ml of product we typically inject - this isn’t a one size fits all answer but whatI will say is, we definitely don’t scrimp on product - we want you to get great results so we use as much as we need to get you great results in the quickest time possible.


You will be able to return home and resume normal activity with a few pieces of aftercare advice to follow for the best results. This differs slightly between products but in general involves light CV exercise, increased water intake, no alcohol, saunas or steam rooms for 48 hours. Massage and radio frequency treatments will help the broken down fat clear more quickly and the skin local to the injection sites tighten for optimal contouring (these treatments are both available at our Sutton Coldfield clinic and can be arranged via reception).


We always recommend you use a compression garment after these injections to allow the quickest recovery, and smoothest contour around the sites we are taking fat from. We recommend the MACOM garments, they are exceptionally high quality, surgical compression garments that we have found to produce the best results.


You can find them here www.macom-medical.com (use code RESOLVE for a discount at checkout).


How Long Is a Fat Dissolving Treatment Session?

A fat dissolving injection session can take anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas being treated and whether we need to use numbing cream beforehand.


How Soon Will You See Results from Fat Dissolving Injections?

The results of fat removal treatment are dictated somewhat by the product choice as described earlier - some products offer much quicker fat dissolving than others. Some induce more swelling so the contour is less obvious straight. The processor fat destruction can take time to compete over multiple sessions for the best results. If you have a time scale to work towards such as a holiday or event, we will help you plan back from the date and select the safest, most effective product choice for you.
