Fat Dissolving

Treatment

When fat accumulates on the back, your shirts and bras don’t fit right and bulges show. Sometimes this is caused by medical conditions, genetics and medicines but the most common cause of back fat is weight gain. While exercise and diet may improve your overall appearance, it cannot target the specific areas where fat accumulates on the back.

Fat dissolving injections provide an alternative to eliminating back fat without the need for plastic surgery/liposuction. These injections leverage the substance in the body; deoxycholic acid, a salt that aids in fat digestion to destroy fat cells. Fat dissolving is not new. The medical community has practiced fat dissolving as a means to break up fat to prevent it from entering the circulatory system after trauma dating as far back as the 60’s. The same process is equally effective at eliminating the fat cells that cause unsightly bulges and rolls in the back.

After applying a numbing cream to reduce pain, several injections will be made throughout the area of concern. Following the treatment, the substance goes to work destroying fat cells. This process can cause inflammation, bruising, swelling, pain, numbness, redness and lumps that will be temporary lasting anywhere from 2 days to 3 weeks.

After 3 treatments, the fat cells will be eliminated and no further treatment will be required.
