About this treatment

Body Melting Injection

The Body Melting Injection places a fat-dissolving agent into areas of concern on the body to help refine its contours. It is used on areas where fat gathers easily, such as the abdomen, thighs, love handles, hip line, knee line and upper arms.

It works by stimulating the lymphatic system to help break down fat and clear waste, and a cannula is used instead of a sharp needle to reduce cell damage. The dose and number of sessions are set after consultation, based on the area and amount of fat.

How it works

Body Melting Injection

The injected agent acts on fat cells in the layer under the skin, and the broken-down fat is gradually cleared along with waste through lymphatic circulation. Change appears over time rather than right after the injection, and swelling may be the first thing you notice.

FAQ

How long does the treatment take?

The injection itself takes about 10 minutes. Consultation and preparation are extra, and larger or multiple areas may take longer.

How many sessions will I need?

We recommend regular sessions about two weeks apart. It varies with the area and amount of fat, so we decide the number at your consultation.

Will there be swelling or bruising?

As an injection, it can cause swelling or bruising, and the extent and duration vary by person. Please leave some margin before events where the area will be exposed.

Please noteResults and the number of sessions needed vary with the amount of fat and your constitution, and combining with healthy eating and exercise helps. Please tell us about any drug allergies, medication, pregnancy or breastfeeding at your consultation.
