Fat Dissolving Injections
Target stubborn fat. Sculpt your jawline. Define your profile—without surgery. Available at our Mississauga Cosmetic and Wellness Clinic.
What are Fat Dissolving Injections?
Fat dissolving injections are a non-surgical solution designed to reduce localized fat deposits in areas like the chin and jawline. At Skin Beauty Enhanced, we offer injectable treatments using deoxycholic acid, a Health Canada–approved compound that breaks down and absorbs fat cells naturally.
This treatment is ideal for clients looking to contour the lower face—particularly the submental area (under the chin)—without invasive procedures or downtime. Whether you're concerned about a double chin or seeking a more defined jawline, fat dissolving injections may be an effective, long-lasting solution.
As a physician-led Mississauga Cosmetic and Wellness Clinic, Skin Beauty Enhanced delivers safe, personalized treatments focused on subtle, natural-looking improvement.
How Do Fat Dissolving Injections Work?
Fat dissolving injections work using deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. When injected into targeted areas, the acid destroys fat cells, which are then eliminated by the body over time through the lymphatic system.
Once the fat cells are destroyed, they can no longer store or accumulate fat, making this a permanent solution for those who maintain a healthy lifestyle. Our treatments are performed under the guidance of Dr. Andrea Garcia, ensuring the highest standard of safety, technique, and outcome.
We use Health Canada–approved injectable products, such as Belkyra®, which will be discussed during your consultation based on your treatment plan.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
Fat dissolving injections are most commonly used for:
- Submental fullness (double chin)
- Jawline definition
- Jowls (in some cases, based on assessment)
- Small localized fat pockets (if appropriate and safe)
Note: This treatment is not intended for weight loss or large-volume fat reduction. It’s best for targeted contouring.
Does it Hurt?
You may feel a mild burning or tingling sensation during and shortly after the treatment. At Skin Beauty Enhanced, we take every step to ensure your comfort, including the use of topical numbing agents and aftercare instructions to minimize discomfort and swelling.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Most clients require 2 to 4 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. The exact number of sessions will depend on the amount of fat present and your personal goals.
Each session gradually improves contour and reduces fullness, with results typically visible after the second treatment.
What’s the Downtime?
Downtime can vary, but swelling is expected, especially in the submental area. Swelling may last anywhere from 3 to 7 days, and mild bruising or tenderness can occur. We recommend planning this treatment at least a week ahead of any important events.
Our team will provide complete aftercare guidance to support your recovery and results.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
This treatment is ideal for healthy adults who:
- Are bothered by a double chin or lower face fullness
- Want a non-surgical solution for jawline contouring
- Have realistic expectations about gradual fat reduction
- Are committed to maintaining results through a healthy lifestyle
