DESO FAT DISSOLVING INJECTIONS
WHAT ARE FAT DISSOLVING INJECTIONS?
DESO fat dissolving injections reduce localised pockets of fat that are resistant to normal methods of weight loss. Non-surgical and highly effective, these injections contain a compound called Deoxycholic Acid that is proven to break down and eliminate fat. They targets and destroys the fat cells, which the body then naturally processes and eliminates through the lymphatic system

Frequently Asked Questions
How Do DESO Face & DESO Body Fat Dissolving Injections Work?
DESO Face and DESO Body fat dissolving injections damage the fat cell membranes in the treatment area. The destroyed fat cells are broken down and naturally expelled by the lymphatic system. The outcome of fat dissolving injections is different for everyone, depending on the injection site and other lifestyle factors.
Am I Suitable For Fat Dissolving Injections?
This treatment is best suited for individuals who have difficulty eliminating stubborn fat pockets even with a healthy diet and exercise regimen. DESO Face and DESO Body treatments aren’t intended for overall weight loss, so candidates who are medically obese won’t qualify. Likewise, pregnant or breastfeeding women, as well as those with advanced autoimmune conditions, aren’t suitable for fat dissolving injections.
What Can I Expect During A DESO Treatment?
Before the treatment, we’ll ask you to attend a medical consultation to ensure that you’re a suitable candidate. Nurse Sophie will explain the procedure in full, before cleaning and marking the treatment area. She’ll carefully administer the injections using a fine needle to minimise discomfort. Afterwards, she’ll provide a bespoke aftercare plan to support your recovery.
Are There Any Side Effects From Fat Dissolving Injections?
Whilst side effects are minimal, they can include redness, localised swelling, mild bruising, tenderness and sensitivity in the treated area. Despite this, you should be able to continue with your day-to-day activities immediately after.
Are Fat Dissolving Injections Safe?
Yes, fat dissolving injections are entirely safe so long as they are administered by a registered medical practitioner like Nurse Sophie. DESO fat dissolving injections are made from a compound called Deoxycholic Acid which is naturally occuring substance found in the body.
“I went to Sophie for an initial consultation and she spent a lot of time explaining the procedures that would give me the results I was looking for. A few weeks later I went back for the treatments and I am thrilled with the results. Many thanks Sophie for your patience and understanding.”
