Facial Slimmingin Christchurch

Quick Answer

Facial slimming at Silk means reducing a small, defined pocket of fat rather than changing the shape of the face as a whole, most often the submental fat under the chin that stays put through diet and exercise. The treatment is fat dissolver injections: a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid that breaks down the fat cell so the body clears it permanently. It is administered by registered nurses and takes 15 to 30 minutes. Expect noticeable swelling for three to seven days afterwards, which is part of how the treatment works rather than a complication. Most people need two to four sessions spaced six to eight weeks apart. Because treated fat cells do not regenerate, the result holds. Pricing is confirmed at consultation.
