About - Fat Dissolving Injections

Fat dissolving injections are a non-surgical solution designed to target and reduce
stubborn fat pockets that are resistant to diet and exercise. These injections
use compounds like deoxycholic acid, which naturally occurs in the body and helps break down fat cells. Commonly treated areas include the double chin, jawline, abdomen, arms, thighs, and love handles, giving you a more sculpted and contoured appearance without surgery.
