Fat Dissolving Injections Perth

Any adult male or female with excess fat deposits under the chin may consider having this treatment done. It is important to understand that this treatment is not meant to correct the loose neck skin. Patients with excess skin may not be suitable candidates and may consider other treatment options we have.

The area to be treated is first anaesthetised using high strength topical numbing cream and local anaesthetic. Once entirely numb, a tiny needle is used to inject small quantities of the product into the fat under the skin. The whole treatment roughly takes about 30 minutes.

Most patients tolerate the procedure reasonably well. At Medaesthetics we perform this treatment only once the area is first numbed using strong numbing cream and local infiltration anaesthesia.

Patients may experience a mild to moderate degree of tenderness and swelling in the treated area for a few days after the treatment.

We recommend oral painkillers such as Panadol and ice packs to manage this.

Efficacy of Fat Dissolving Injections is well established in clinical studies and trials. The treatment has been aound for several decades. The main ingredient of Fat Dissolving Injections is a biological substance which is structurally identical to a naturally occurring enzyme which helps with the digestion of fat in the human diet. Due to Australian Laws, we can not mention the name of the product.

There are some temporary side effects which include:

Temporary redness
Swelling & bruising
Discomfort
Rare side effects include:

Prolonged swelling lasting several weeks
Formation of cyst /abscess in the treated area which may require drainage (extremely rare)
Loose skin in the treated area (extremely rare)

As mentioned above, some patients experience a varying degree of discomfort, swelling, redness and bruising in the treated area.

This can last for up to 5 days, but icing the treated area helps to reduce the swelling quickly.

Most patients see a visible improvement in the treated area three to four weeks after the treatment.

A second or third treatment session may be required if more improvement is desired. Results are permanent.

Most patients see a visible improvement in the treated area 4 weeks after the first treatment. A second or third treatment session may be required if more noticeable improvement is desired.

As mentioned above, Medaesthetics offers multiple treatments modalities to remove the excess neck and jawline fat. We have substantial experience in fat reduction treatments for the entire body. These include:

One treatment session costs $1250. We recommend a minimum of two sessions for full clinical results.
