About

Lipolysis injections, also known as fat-dissolving injections, are a non-surgical treatment designed to break down and eliminate localized fat deposits. Most commonly used under the chin or along the jawline, this injectable solution contains deoxycholic acid—a compound that naturally occurs in the body and helps absorb fat. At Platinum Medical Spa, lipolysis injections are a safe, effective way to contour and slim stubborn areas that don't respond to diet or exercise.

Sculpting with Precision: The Lipolysis Injection Process

Your session begins with a consultation to determine whether lipolysis injections are the right solution for your aesthetic goals. After cleaning and marking the area, small injections are placed just under the skin. The treatment takes around 20-30 minutes. Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness is normal and often means the product is actively working to break down fat. Most clients need 2-4 treatments spaced a few weeks apart for optimal, long-lasting results.
