Fat Dissolving

  • What is fat dissolving treatment?

    Fat Dissolving Treatments have been available in Australia for many years and are a safe and effective non-surgical alternative to liposuction treatments. Our fat dissolving treatment targets stubborn fat pockets on the jaw, chin, and neck as well as the abdomen, back and arms.

  • How does fat dissolving treatments work?

    The fat dissolving injections are made of a synthetic form of a naturally found compound in the body. This compound works to break down fats in our digestive system and when injected into fatty areas, it breaks down fat cells. The body then expels fat through the lymphatic system, subsequently resulting in slimming of the targeted area, and the destroyed fat cells will not regenerate.
