Fat Dissolving Injections
What Is Lipolysis Treatment?
Lipolysis injections are a game-changer for those stubborn fat deposits. Made from Phosphatidylcholine (PC) and Deoxycholic acid (DC), both naturally occurring in the body, these injections target and dissolve fat cells, which are then flushed out through your lymphatic system.
The best part? It’s minimally invasive, doesn’t enter the bloodstream or cross the blood-brain barrier, and is super effective. Lipolysis injections are perfect for smaller fat deposits and use a microneedle to deliver PC/DC directly where needed.
Typically, you will see noticeable results after a few sessions, spaced about six weeks apart. This treatment is ideal for those tricky areas that resist diet and exercise, such as:
- Abdomen
- Hips
- Knees
- Upper arms
- Thighs (saddlebags)
- Chin and double-chin
- Cheeks and sagging cheeks
- Back (bra fat or muffin top)
- Love handles
- Male breasts (pseudo gynecomastia)
- Lipoma
- Ankles
Lipolysis is also great for facial concerns like deep smile lines, eye bags, and “hamster” cheeks. It’s also a widely popular corrective measure after liposuction. Consider it your go-to for achieving a more contoured look!

Our Lipolysis Treatment
Consultation
Your journey starts with a thorough consultation, where we will review your medical history and check if lipolysis is right for you. Share any previous fat reduction efforts, and we will tailor a treatment plan to your goals. Feel free to ask questions at any time!
Personalized Treatment
We kick off the session with topical anesthesia to keep you comfortable. Then, our expert team administers the fat-dissolving injections to target those stubborn areas. The whole process takes just 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your needs.
Aftercare and Support
After your session, you can head home with no downtime required. Expect some swelling and a burning sensation in the targeted area for a few days as the fat begins to break down. Our team will guide you through the aftercare and is here for any questions or follow-ups.
Frequently Asked Questions
WHICH AREAS CAN BE TREATED WITH LIPOLYSIS?
Lipolysis is perfect for tackling stubborn areas like the abdomen, hips, knees, upper arms, and thighs (saddlebags) that cannot be tamed with diet and exercise. It’s also great for facial concerns like deep smile lines, eye bags, double chin, and “hamster” cheeks.
ARE THERE ANY RISKS I SHOULD BE AWARE OF?
Lipolysis carries minimal risks compared to surgical options like liposuction. Bruising and swelling are much less common, and it’s more cost-effective. Plus, Dr. Nadel will walk you through any potential risks.
DOES LIPOLYSIS ALSO HELP REDUCE CELLULITE?
Yes! Lipolysis has a skin-firming effect, making it a great option for reducing cellulite.

The absolute best!! I feel totally comfortable and myself! They bring out the best of me!
Came to see my most favorite person, Dr. Nadel, and staff today! I started coming to see Dr. Nadel in 2022. She helped me immensely with my lips, which had been filled incorrectly for a long, long time! I come to her, only, because she is a wealth of knowledge and her bedside manner is spectacular! One of the nicest and most honest people I have ever met! Her staff is also incredible - so friendly and professional. Always go above and beyond to help. You won’t go wrong coming to see them. You will be thrilled! ❤️
I had an amazing experience at Totality Med Spa! I received Botox and filler from Sarah, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. She made me feel so comfortable, and the results look incredibly natural—exactly what I was hoping for. The entire team was so sweet and professional, and the atmosphere of the spa was warm and welcoming. Highly recommend Totality Med Spa for anyone looking for top-notch care and beautiful results!
