Fat Dissolving Injections
Target Stubborn Fat. Refine Your Shape. Restore Confidence.
Eliminate the small pockets of fat that don’t respond to diet or exercise—with precision, safety, and expert care.
Fat dissolving injections are designed for one specific purpose: reducing small, stubborn areas of fat that persist despite a healthy lifestyle. At Allura Clinics, we use this treatment to help you refine problem areas with a non-surgical approach that delivers gradual, natural-looking results. This is not a weight loss solution. It is a targeted body-contouring treatment for people who are close to their goal weight but frustrated by areas that won’t budge.
We approach fat dissolving injections conservatively and strategically. Every treatment plan starts with an assessment to confirm that injections are the right option for you and that your skin quality can support fat reduction without unwanted laxity.
How Do Fat Dissolving Injections Work?
Fat dissolving injections use a medical-grade injectable that breaks down fat cells in a treated area. Once those fat cells are destroyed, your body naturally clears them over time through the lymphatic system. The fat cells that are removed do not come back.
Because the process relies on your body’s natural response, results appear gradually rather than overnight. This allows for smoother contour changes and avoids the abrupt look that can occur with more aggressive treatments.
Key points to understand:
- The treatment targets fat cells only, not muscle or skin
- Results develop over several weeks
- Multiple sessions are usually required for best outcomes
- Treated fat cells are permanently removed
What Results Can You Expect From Fat Dissolving Injections?
Fat dissolving injections reduce the fullness of the treated area, making it visibly slimmer and more defined. The goal is not dramatic volume loss, but controlled contour refinement.
Most clients require a series of treatments to reach their desired result. On average, this ranges from three to six sessions, spaced four weeks apart. Satisfaction rates are high when the treatment is used appropriately and expectations are set correctly from the start.
You can expect:
- A visible reduction in stubborn fat
- Gradual, natural-looking improvement
- Permanent fat cell removal with weight stability
- Results that continue to improve over time
What Areas Can You Treat With Fat Dissolving Injections?
Fat dissolving injections are best suited for small, targeted areas. They are not designed for large-volume fat removal.
The most commonly treated areas include:
- Under the chin (submental area)
- Lower abdomen, including small abdominal pouches
Other areas may be assessed on a case-by-case basis. During your consultation, we evaluate both fat volume and skin quality to ensure this treatment will deliver a smooth result.

How Long Do Results Last?
Results from fat dissolving injections are permanent, provided there is no significant weight gain. Once fat cells are destroyed, they do not regenerate. However, remaining fat cells can expand if overall weight increases.
This treatment works best for individuals who maintain a stable weight and an active lifestyle. It is not a substitute for weight loss, but a finishing treatment for stubborn areas.
Are Fat Dissolving Injections Right for You?
Fat dissolving injections are most effective for clients in their 20s to 40s, though some individuals in their 50s may also be suitable candidates. Skin elasticity plays a major role in determining candidacy.
You may be a good candidate if:
- You have small, well-defined areas of stubborn fat
- Your skin has good elasticity
- You are close to your ideal weight
- You want a non-surgical option
If skin laxity is a concern, we will discuss alternative treatments that may better address your goals.

Are Fat Dissolving Injections Safe?
When performed by experienced medical professionals, fat dissolving injections are considered safe. As with any medical treatment, there are risks, which we review thoroughly during your consultation.
Common side effects include:
- Swelling
- Bruising
- Temporary tenderness
The highest-risk area is under the chin due to the presence of a facial nerve. In rare cases, temporary asymmetry of the smile can occur. Our conservative approach and anatomical expertise significantly reduce this risk.

Does It Hurt?
Most clients describe the sensation as mild to moderate discomfort during treatment, with soreness lasting a few hours afterward. We prioritize comfort by using ice packs and numbing agents as part of the treatment process.
Discomfort is temporary and well tolerated by most people.
