Fat dissolving injections, also known as lipolytic injections, are non-surgical treatments used to reduce small areas of unwanted fat. They are often used on areas like the chin, abdomen, thighs, and love handles.
The injections contain substances like phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholate, which break down fat cells. During the procedure, a healthcare professional injects the solution into the targeted fat areas using a fine needle. The solution destroys the fat cells, and the body naturally removes the fat over a few weeks
