Fat Dissolving (Deoxycholic Acid) in Calgary

A Gentle Way to Refine and Contour Your Profile

Fat Dissolving (Deoxycholic Acid) — treatment

Unwanted fullness beneath the chin can impact how your profile appears and how you perceive it. At SKIN Clinics, our fat-dissolving injections offer a refined, non-surgical approach to reducing submental fullness and achieving a more sculpted, confident contour. This treatment works by targeting adipose tissue beneath the skin, gently encouraging the process of lipolysis so the body can naturally break down and clear excess fat over time.

Treatment FAQ

About Fat Dissolving (Deoxycholic Acid).

Deoxycholic acid is a molecule your body already uses to break down dietary fat, which is why it works so effectively for this treatment. When carefully injected beneath the chin, it helps dissolve unwanted adipose tissue by triggering a gentle process called lipolysis. Over the following weeks, your body naturally clears these disrupted fat cells, resulting in a gradual reduction of submental fullness. Most patients notice a meaningful improvement after a series of sessions, typically between two and four, with minimal downtime and a beautifully refined result that enhances their natural profile.

This treatment provides a refined approach to reducing unwanted fullness, while also supporting a smooth and comfortable experience.

An indulgence that left my skin soft, supple and touchable. They offered excellent options for ongoing skin care, tailored to my specific skin type. So pleasant & lovely!

I had a great experience at Skin Clinics Calgary from start to finish. The initial consultation was incredibly thorough — the team took the time to really understand my needs and answer all of my questions, which made me feel completely at ease. Everyone was so warm and welcoming, from the moment I walked in to when I left. You can tell they truly care about their clients. Also, the clinic itself is absolutely beautiful — clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed. I’m really happy with the level of care I received and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Skin Clinics to others!
