Stubborn pockets of fat can be frustrating, we know. You may exercise regularly, eat well, and generally feel happy with your weight, but still have a couple of areas that don’t change no matter what you do. This is where fat dissolving treatments enter the conversation.
At Faces By Bae, we offer fat dissolving treatments in London for clients looking to target small, localised areas of unwanted fat. Before looking, however, it’s important to understand what the treatment can and cannot do to ensure your expectations are realistic.
What Is Fat Dissolving Treatment?
Fat dissolving injections are a non-surgical aesthetic treatment that was designed to target small pockets of localised fat. The treatment requires injections to be put into selected areas of the body.
The active ingredients work on the targeted fat cells, which are then processed naturally by the body over time. Popular treatment areas include the chin and the jawline, especially for those who are worried about a double chin. Depending on the treatment recommended and the suitability of the individual, other small areas may also be considered.
Remember, the goal isn’t to create a dramatic change overnight, it’s to see results develop gradually.
Is Fat Dissolving The Same As Weight Loss?
No, and it’s imperative that you understand this. Fat dissolving treatments are not designed as a replacement for weight loss, healthy diet, or exercise. They are generally considered by people who are already working towards or maintaining a healthy lifestyle, but they have a few small areas of stubborn fat that they would like to solve.
These are also not intended to treat significant amounts of body fat. So, if your main goal is overall weight loss, a fat dissolving treatment is not going to be the right solution. In the same kind of vein, the treatment isn’t designed to address loose skin.
A consultation will provide you with the opportunity to talk through your goals honestly, and find out whether the treatment is right for you.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
There is no single answer to this, so we’re not going to give you a number. Some people may require more than one session, while the number of treatments recommended will depend on the area that is being treated, as well as the amount of localised fat in the area, and the result that you want.
Your professional practitioner should talk through the options with you, coming up with a suitable treatment plan, rather than promising you a result after a set number of appointments.
What Happens During A Consultation?
Before recommending fat dissolving injections, your practitioner will talk to you about the area that you would like to treat, your medical history, and your aesthetic goals. They can also explain the treatment process, potential side effects, any downtime, and if they think that there is a more suitable treatment for you.
Make sure that you ask questions, and get all of the answers that you need before you move forward with the treatment.
