Injection Lipolysis at KAST Medical Aesthetics
Target Stubborn Areas of Fat Without Surgery
At KAST Medical Aesthetics, we understand that even with a healthy lifestyle, certain areas of stubborn fat can be difficult to reduce through diet and exercise alone.
Many patients maintain a healthy weight yet remain frustrated by localised pockets of fat that seem resistant to their efforts. Common concerns include fullness beneath the chin, areas around the abdomen, hips, flanks, back, or thighs that do not respond as expected to lifestyle changes.
Injection Lipolysis is a non-surgical treatment designed to target and reduce small, stubborn pockets of localised fat. By helping break down fat cells within specific treatment areas, it offers a less invasive alternative to surgical body contouring procedures.
The result is a more refined and sculpted appearance without the downtime associated with surgery.
What Is Injection Lipolysis?
Injection Lipolysis, often referred to as fat dissolving treatment, is a non-surgical injectable treatment used to target localised areas of unwanted fat.
The treatment works by introducing an active ingredient into the treatment area that helps break down fat cells. Once disrupted, these fat cells are gradually processed and eliminated naturally through the body’s lymphatic system.
Injection Lipolysis is designed for body contouring rather than weight loss and is most effective for patients who are close to their ideal weight but wish to address specific areas of stubborn fat.
Why Choose Injection Lipolysis?
Many patients are looking for ways to improve body contours without surgery, general anaesthetic, or lengthy recovery periods.
Injection Lipolysis offers several advantages:
- Non-surgical treatment
- No general anaesthetic required
- Minimal downtime
- Targeted fat reduction
- Gradual, natural-looking improvements
- Suitable for smaller treatment areas
- Can be incorporated into wider body contouring plans
The treatment is particularly popular amongst patients seeking subtle refinement rather than dramatic surgical change.
How Does Injection Lipolysis Work?
Following a consultation, the treatment is carefully injected into the targeted area.
The active ingredients work to break down the membranes of fat cells within the treatment zone. Over the following weeks, the body naturally processes and removes the disrupted fat cells through the lymphatic system.
As the area heals and the body clears the treated fat cells, patients often begin to notice gradual improvements in contour and definition.
Results develop progressively, allowing for a natural-looking outcome.
Who Is Injection Lipolysis Suitable For?
Injection Lipolysis may be suitable for patients who are concerned about small areas of localised fat that have proven difficult to improve through lifestyle measures alone.
Common treatment areas include:
- Double chin
- Abdomen
- Flanks and hips
- Back
- Inner thighs
- Outer thighs
- Areas of localised stubborn fat
The treatment is generally best suited to patients who are close to their ideal weight and looking for contouring rather than significant weight reduction.
Personalised Treatment Planning at KAST Medical Aesthetics
Every Injection Lipolysis treatment begins with a detailed consultation.
We assess the treatment area, skin quality, body composition, medical history, and overall suitability before creating a personalised treatment plan.
Not every concern is best addressed with fat dissolving injections alone. In some cases, skin tightening treatments, body contouring technologies, or a combination approach may provide a better outcome.
Our role is to recommend the most appropriate treatment based on your anatomy, goals, and long-term expectations rather than adopting a one-size-fits-all approach.
What To Expect From Treatment
Treatment is performed in clinic and usually takes less than an hour depending on the size of the treatment area.
A series of small injections are placed into the targeted fat deposits.
Most patients tolerate treatment well, although some temporary discomfort can occur during the procedure.
Following treatment, it is common to experience:
- Swelling
- Tenderness
- Redness
- Bruising
- Temporary itching
These effects are expected and usually settle gradually over the following days.
You will receive personalised aftercare guidance following treatment.
When Will I See Results?
Injection Lipolysis works gradually as the body processes and removes the treated fat cells.
Weeks 2–4
Early improvements may begin to become noticeable.
Weeks 6–12
The treated area often appears more refined as fat reduction progresses.
Ongoing Improvement
Results continue to develop over the following weeks as the body completes the natural clearing process.
Many patients benefit from a course of treatments to achieve optimal results, depending on the treatment area and amount of fat being addressed.
