Fat removal injection for the abdomen

Are you tired of struggling with stubborn abdominal fat that won’t disappear despite diet and exercise? In this case, fat-dissolving injections for the abdomen may be an effective option. This minimally invasive treatment can significantly reduce abdominal fat, helping you achieve a firmer and slimmer silhouette without surgery and with minimal side effects.

At Swiss Derma Clinic, lipolysis is one of our specialties. We are happy to offer you a non-binding consultation with our specialists to learn more.

What Are Fat-Dissolving Injections for the Abdomen?

Fat-dissolving injections, also known as lipolysis, are used to reduce localized fat deposits. This involves using an innovative active ingredient that effectively destroys fat cells in targeted areas. These “inactive” fat cells are then naturally metabolized and eliminated by the body.

This method is ideal for body areas where stubborn fat deposits tend to accumulate. These include the abdomen, thighs, upper arms (“bat wings”), buttocks, and even pronounced double chins.

FAQ

Is the fat-dissolving injection for the abdomen painful?

Most patients report mild discomfort during the injection, comparable to a small pinch. If desired, a local anesthetic cream can be applied, which takes about 20 minutes to take effect. Afterward, the injection is usually painless. However, in most cases, no anesthetic is necessary.

How many treatments are needed for visible results?

The number of treatments required depends on the amount of fat to be reduced, your body’s individual response, and your treatment goals. Typically, around four or more sessions are needed to achieve a significant reduction in abdominal fat.

Are the results of fat-dissolving injections for the abdomen permanent?

Partially, yes. The fat cells destroyed during the treatment are permanently removed. However, if significant weight gain occurs afterward, new stubborn fat deposits may form in other areas. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, physical activity, and a balanced diet is essential for sustaining the results.

What side effects are possible with fat-dissolving injections for the abdomen?

As with any medical or cosmetic procedure, side effects are possible. These may even indicate that skin regeneration and tissue improvement are underway. Common side effects include redness, mild skin peeling, or temporary skin sensitivity.

The injection itself may also lead to side effects, such as mild pain at the injection site, small bruises, or, in very rare cases, infections around the injection points. Most of these side effects resolve on their own within a few hours or days.

What causes abdominal fat, and can it be prevented?

Abdominal fat, also known as visceral fat, accumulates around internal organs and is more than just a cosmetic concern. It is often caused by genetic predisposition, hormonal imbalances, an unbalanced diet, lack of physical activity, or certain lifestyle choices. Prevention focuses on these areas and includes regular exercise, increased physical activity, and a conscious lifestyle. In cases where abdominal fat persists despite these measures, fat-dissolving injections can be an effective solution.
