Fat Dissolving Injections Frequently Asked Questions

What are fat-dissolving injections?

Fat-dissolving injections are targeted aesthetic treatments designed to reduce small pockets of stubborn fat that do not respond well to diet or exercise. At Jayèn Clinic we offer Skinny Bottle and Lemon Bottle, two advanced formulations that break down localised fat cells so the body can naturally flush them away.

How do fat-dissolving injections work?

The injections contain ingredients that destabilise the fat cell wall. Once the cell is broken down, your lymphatic system clears the contents in the same way it would clear dietary fats. This results in measurable inch loss in specific areas such as the chin, jawline, abdomen, hips and arms.

How are they different from Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro?

This is the most common question, and the difference is significant.

Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro are prescription medications originally designed for diabetes. They work by altering appetite, slowing digestion, reducing hunger signals and causing whole-body weight loss. These drugs shrink fat cells but do not destroy them, which is why weight often returns once treatment stops.

Fat-dissolving injections work locally, not systemically.

  • They destroy fat cells in the treated area.

  • They do not affect appetite, hormones or digestion.

  • They are designed for sculpting specific areas, rather than general weight loss.

  • Once fat cells are destroyed, they cannot return.

In short, Ozempic-type medications make you eat less. Fat-dissolving injections physically remove the fat cells from the body.

Are the results permanent?

Yes, once a fat cell is dissolved it is permanently removed. Remaining fat cells can still grow with weight gain, which is why looking after your diet and lifestyle will always give the best long-term results.

What areas can be treated?

Common treatment areas include:

  • Double chin and jowls

  • Abdomen and waist

  • Bra rolls

  • Inner and outer thighs

  • Upper arms

  • Flanks and “muffin top”

  • Male chest (pseudo-gynaecomastia)

Who is a good candidate?

Fat-dissolving injections are ideal for clients who:

  • Are close to their ideal weight

  • Have stubborn pockets of fat that will not shift

  • Want sculpting or reshaping rather than full-body weight loss

  • Do not want the hormonal effects of GLP-1 medications

How many sessions will I need?

Most clients need between one and three sessions depending on the size of the area. Chin and jawline usually require fewer treatments, while the abdomen or flanks may need more.

Is there any downtime?

Expect swelling, tenderness and a feeling of firmness for a few days. This is normal and shows the product is working. Many clients return to daily activities immediately.

Do fat-dissolving injections help with weight loss?

They are not weight-loss injections. Their purpose is to reshape and contour. Clients often use them alongside a healthy lifestyle or as an alternative to long-term GLP-1 medication.

Are they safe?

Yes. When performed by trained clinicians using premium licensed products, the treatment is considered very safe. At Jayèn Clinic all treatments include a full consultation to ensure suitability.

Why choose fat dissolving over Ozempic-style treatments?

  • You target the exact area that bothers you.

  • There is no impact on appetite, hormones or mood.

  • No lifelong medication.

  • No rebound weight gain once you stop.

  • Results are permanent in the treated area.

Can they be combined with other treatments?

Absolutely. Many clients combine fat dissolving with cavitation, radiofrequency, HIFU, or lymphatic drainage for enhanced shaping and tighter skin. We will guide you on the best combination based on your goals.
