Fat dissolving injections offer an exciting new way to treat the fat under your chin. This is known medically as “submental fat” and in lay terms as a double chin. It is the safe, easy alternative to surgery, invasive treatments and treatments that don’t work.
Many people dislike their profiles. You may have found that age, hormonal changes and other factors have left you with a chin that looks soft, puffy and fat. A double chin can make you look heavier than you are. It also makes you look older. If you’re unhappy with the shape of your chin, you have probably been trying to do something about it for a long time. You may have just given up and accepted it as inevitable. It doesn’t have to be that way. With fat ion of result dissolving injections, you can safely and quickly remove that double chin without surgery or invasive procedures.
It almost sounds too good to be true. You just get some injections and the fat melts away. It seems like a dream. In the case of fat dissolving injections for your chin, that dream is a reality. The treatment can literally make fat melt away. That doesn’t mean you can use it all over your body. Right now, it’s only available for your use on your double chin.
The injection uses a substance called deoxycholic acid. Injection lipolysis works by mimicking the way your body naturally breaks down fat. Deoxycholic acid is a natural substance. Your liver naturally produces several types of bile acids. These acids weaken and eliminate fat from your body.
The acid used in the injections is a synthetic version of this same acid. When a professional injects it into your fat, the acid breaks up and kills the fat cells. Your body won’t reject the acid because it mimics one that your body naturally produces. The potency level of the acid injections is higher than that of the natural acid. This makes it extremely good at destroying fat cells.
Your body absorbs the dead fat cells into your lymphatic and circulatory systems. The fat cells can’t take root anywhere else in your body. Over the course of weeks, your body eliminates these dead fat cells through normal processes. Eventually, the deoxycholic acid also breaks down and gets eliminated by your body.
Because deoxycholic acid does such a good job killing fat cells in the chin, people often wonder if they can use it on other parts of their body. Some doctors and medical spas have started injecting it into small areas on the body. This is not an FDA-approved use of the injections, however. There is no efficient way to apply the acid to a large area like the stomach, legs or buttocks. It would take too many injections.
There are many good reasons to get rid of your double chin:
The ideal thread lift candidate is usually in his or her late thirties to early fifties, whereas most patients over the age of about 55 will benefit more profoundly from facelift surgery. Thread lifts can, however, provide a facelift alternative for older patients who are unable to have surgery for medical reasons. Because thread lifts can be performed under local anaesthesia, many people who have age-related conditions that make them ineligible for surgery (like high blood pressure, type two diabetes and cardiovascular disease) can safely have this treatment.
POD, or polydioxanone threads, dissolve after only six to nine months. Patients will notice full results around three weeks post-procedure. During this three week span, the skin has repositioned and collagen has flooded the area as it is the body’s natural injury response.
While minimally-invasive, thread lift procedures are not entirely pain-free. Although it is one of the most minimally-invasive procedures there is the market today, patients do some times experience post-procedural bruising, swelling and soreness.
