Fat Dissolving Injections
What are fat dissolving injections?
Say goodbye to stubborn fat with fat-dissolving (lipolytic) injections – a non-surgical solution designed to contour and refine various areas of the face and body.
Whether it’s a double chin or other trouble spots that just won’t budge, these targeted injections help break down fat cells gradually but effectively, revealing a more sculpted appearance over time.
Perfect for those who want visible results without the risks of surgery, lipolytic injections offer a safe, effective alternative to liposuction.

How do fat dissolving injections work?
The injections work by using a specially formulated lipolytic agent to target and break down stubborn fat cells beneath the skin.
Delivered through a series of fine injections, the solution targets localised fat deposits. Over the next few weeks, the treated fat cells are gradually broken down and flushed out naturally by your body, leaving the area looking slimmer and more defined.
The treatment offers long-lasting results and no need for surgery.
Fat dissolving injections vs weight loss injections
While medications like Ozempic or Mounjaro are designed for overall weight management by regulating appetite and blood sugar, lipolytic injections directly target localised fat – such as double chins, jowls, or stubborn body areas – without affecting your whole body or offering systemic side effects such as appetite suppression.
✅ Targeted fat reduction (not whole-body weight loss)
✅ No systemic effects or appetite suppression
✅ Ideal for those at or near their ideal weight with stubborn fat pockets
✅ Non-surgical and minimally invasive
✅ Fewer side effects compared to GLP-1 medications (like nausea, fatigue, digestive issues)
In short, lipolytic injections are a spot-treatment solution, perfect for sculpting specific areas, rather than a full-body weight loss approach.

Fat dissolving injection FAQs
What areas of the body can be treated with fat dissolving injections?
We can treat almost all areas of the body without fat dissolving injections. This is due to the wide range of available Pluryal products we have access to. Each one is tailored to a specific area to ensure maximum results.
How long do fat dissolving injections take?
Injections for fat dissolving take hardly any time at all. It’s a simple and fast procedure where an appointment will typically last around thirty minutes, including the time for anaesthetic application should you want it.
Does a fat dissolving injection hurt?
We endeavour to make your visit to us as quick and painless as possible. The products we use, alongside Professor Khanna’s techniques, ensure a procedure that sees each patient encounter minimal downtime and minimal discomfort. Should you be a little wary, a local anaesthetic can be applied if you prefer.
What are the fat dissolving injection side effects?
Side effects of the fat dissolving injections used at our clinic are minimal. You may notice a small amount of bruising or soreness immediately after the procedure but this should subside in just a few days. Swelling can occur in the treated area, and this can, at times, take 1-2 weeks for it to fully settle.
How soon do fat dissolving injections work?
Results from fat dissolving injections are not immediate. In the initial weeks after a treatment, the fat cells that absorb the injected product will firm up. At the same time, some swelling may occur. This is completely normal and is where the fat dissolving product has bonded with the fat cells. Around 3-6 weeks after the treatment the hardened fat cells will begin to be eliminated.
How many fat dissolving injection sessions will I need to see results?
To ensure you get the results you hope for, we recommend you have one treatment per month for three months.
What Pluryal products does Professor Khanna use for fat dissolving injections?

- BODYCONTOUR – For fat loss injections on the body.
