Fat dissolving injection treatment at Wilbury Clinic

Prescriber-led. Always.

The honest bit

What it is, and
who it's for.

Straight talk before a single needle appears. This isn't weight loss, and if it's not right for you, we'll say so - and point you somewhere better.

What it is

A prescription solution injected directly into a small, defined pocket of fat - think under the chin, jowls or a stubborn roll that diet and the gym never seem to shift. It breaks down the fat cell walls so your body gradually clears them away.

It's a medical treatment, so it always starts with a face to face consultation with our prescriber. Most areas need a course of sessions.

Good for you if
  • You have small, localised pockets of fat that won't budge
  • Areas like under the chin, jowls, flanks or tummy bother you
  • You're close to a stable, healthy weight
  • You're happy to have a course and manage some swelling
Not for you if
  • You're pregnant or breastfeeding
  • You're after weight loss - this isn't that
  • There's an infection or skin problem over the area
  • You need a no-downtime fix - swelling here is real

Your visit

Small jabs,
real swelling.

The appointment is quick - around 30-45 minutes. The swelling that follows is part of how it works, so plan for it.

  1. We chat first

    Your prescriber assesses the area, checks it's genuinely a small fat pocket rather than something else, and maps out an honest plan - including how many sessions you're likely to need.

  2. The treatment

    A grid of small injections into the fat pocket with a fine needle. Expect a stinging or burning sensation for a few minutes as the solution goes to work - it settles quickly.

  3. How it feels after

    The area typically swells noticeably, feels warm, tender and firm, and can bruise. This is expected - it's the sign it's working. Numbness or itching for a while is normal too.

  4. Downtime? Plan for it

    Swelling is often visible for several days and can linger up to a couple of weeks, so time your sessions around your diary. No hard workouts, saunas or alcohol for 24-48 hours.

Results

What to expect,
when.

Your body clears the treated fat cells slowly, so results build session by session over weeks - this is a course, not a one-off.

  1. First days after each session

    Swelling, tenderness and firmness in the area peak early, then ease over the following days to a couple of weeks. Completely normal.

  2. Between sessions

    Sessions are typically spaced around 4-6 weeks apart, giving swelling time to settle and your body time to gradually flush out the destroyed fat cells.

  3. End of your course

    Most people need a course of around 2-4 sessions per area to see a visible, gradual reduction in the pocket of fat treated.

  4. Longer term

    The fat cells that are cleared don't come back, but staying at a stable weight matters - remaining cells can still store fat if your weight climbs.

Results vary from person to person - your likely outcome, number of sessions and spacing will be assessed honestly at your consultation.

Aftercare

Help it along.

Simple rules, big difference. We'll give you the full rundown on the day - here's the short version.

Do

  • Expect swelling - it's part of how it works, and it settles
  • Drink plenty of water and keep moving gently to support drainage
  • Take paracetamol if you need it and apply a cool compress for comfort
  • Give it time - results build gradually over the weeks between sessions

Avoid

  • × Hard workouts, saunas, steam and hot baths for 24-48 hours
  • × Alcohol for at least 24 hours, as it can worsen swelling and bruising
  • × Massaging or pressing the area unless we've specifically advised it
  • × Judging your result too soon - the pocket softens over weeks, not days

Questions

Asked all
the time.

Is this a weight loss treatment?

No - and we're firm about that. Fat dissolving targets small, specific pockets of stubborn fat that won't shift with diet or exercise, like under the chin or the flanks. It's about refining a defined area, not losing weight. It works best when you're already at, or close to, a stable healthy weight.

How much downtime is there?

More than most injectables, so plan for it. Expect noticeable swelling, tenderness, firmness and sometimes bruising in the area. Swelling often shows for several days and can linger up to a couple of weeks. It's completely normal and a sign it's working - just don't book a session right before a big event.

How many sessions will I need?

Most people need a course of around 2-4 sessions per area, spaced roughly 4-6 weeks apart to let swelling settle between each one. The exact number depends on the size of the pocket and how your body responds. Your prescriber will give you an honest estimate at your consultation.

Ready when you are
