Our Medical Aesthetics team offers non-surgical Fat Reduction Treatments to break down and destroy stubborn fat cells in common areas of the body.
Our treatments are gold standard medical-grade, non-invasive, and require little to no downtime.
Why Choose Fat Reduction
Many individuals struggle with stubborn fat deposits that do not respond to diet and exercise. These fat deposits can be frustrating and may impact our self-esteem, even with a healthy lifestyle.
Common areas where fat is difficult to remove include the abdomen, flanks, thighs, upper arms, hips, and bra area.
Our Fat Reduction treatment provides a non-surgical option to effectively target and eliminate these fat cells, helping you achieve a slimmer, more defined appearance.
Treatment Information
Step 1: Marking the Treatment Areas
The first step involves marking the treatment areas. Our cosmetic nurse will identify the target areas including lines, wrinkles, or spots with volume loss. To maintain precision, reference points may be marked on your skin. It helps ensure that the product is administered precisely where needed.
Step 2: Cleansing and Numbing the Skin
Maintaining a sterile environment is crucial during this treatment. Our Cosmetic Nurse will cleanse the treatment areas to Minimise the risk of infection. Additionally, local anaesthesia or numbing cream may be applied to the treatment areas to reduce discomfort associated with the treatment. Your comfort and safety are a top priority during the procedure.
Step 3: Administering Technique
Once the product is prepared, our cosmetic nurse will carefully administer it into the identified treatment areas. The technique plays a vital role in achieving the desired results. The product is administered with a fine needle into the deep dermis or subcutaneous tissue.
Step 4: Post-Administered Massage
After the treatment is complete, a post massage is performed. This step is crucial to spreading the product evenly and ensuring it integrates with your tissues. The massage also helps prevent the formation of lumps or irregularities.
Step 5: Final Assessment
Before concluding the process, our cosmetic nurse will perform a final assessment. It includes checking for symmetry and balance in the treated areas, as well as addressing any concerns or touch-ups that may be necessary.
We recommend 3 treatments. 4 weeks apart.
After this initial treatment course, maintenance is usually scheduled every 12 to 18 months.
