Injection Lipolysis is a non-surgical, minimally invasive fat reduction treatment that uses injectable solutions to dissolve localized fat deposits. At Minus, we offer this innovative procedure to help you achieve a more contoured appearance with minimal downtime and without the need for surgery.
During the procedure, a series of injections containing a specially formulated solution are administered directly into the targeted areas of unwanted fat. This solution works to break down fat cells, which are then naturally metabolized and eliminated by the body over time.
Benefits of Injection Lipolysis
- Non-Invasive: No need for surgical incisions or anesthesia, making it a safe and convenient option.
- Minimal Downtime: Most patients can resume normal activities shortly after treatment.
- Gradual Results: Fat reduction occurs over several weeks, providing a natural-looking outcome.
- Customizable Treatment: Injections can be tailored to address specific areas of concern.
Frequently Asked Questions
What areas can be treated with injection lipolysis?
Injection lipolysis is commonly used to treat small, localized fat pockets, including under the chin (double chin), abdomen, thighs, love handles, arms, and the jawline.
How many treatments are needed for injection lipolysis?
Most patients require 2-4 sessions for optimal results, spaced about 4–6 weeks apart. The number of treatments depends on the area treated and the amount of fat being addressed.
What does injection lipolysis feel like?
Patients may experience a mild burning or stinging sensation during and after the injection. Discomfort is generally brief, with numbing agents often used to reduce pain during the procedure.
How long do the results of injection lipolysis last?
Results are typically permanent, as fat cells are destroyed and eliminated. However, maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle is essential to prevent the regrowth of fat in treated areas.
Are there any risks or side effects of injection lipolysis?
Common side effects include swelling, bruising, redness, and tenderness. Rare risks include skin irregularities, allergic reactions, or infection, but these are minimized when the procedure is performed by a trained professional.
