Fat Dissolving Injections & Non-Surgical Body Contouring at Skin Atelier Kilchberg
Injection lipolysis, also known as fat dissolving injections, is a minimally invasive aesthetic treatment designed to reduce localized fat deposits and refine facial or body contours without surgery.
At Skin Atelier Kilchberg in Zurich, injection lipolysis treatments are performed with precision to target stubborn fat areas such as the double chin, sagging cheeks, abdomen, thighs, flanks, and other localized fat deposits that may not respond to diet and exercise alone.
Using scientifically established active ingredients such as phosphatidylcholine, the treatment helps break down fat cells naturally, allowing the body to metabolize and eliminate them over time for a slimmer and more contoured appearance.
Injection lipolysis is particularly suitable for patients seeking subtle, non-surgical contour refinement with minimal downtime.

- Morpheus8™

For optimum results, two to three lipolysis sessions are usually required at 6 to 8 weeks. The effect becomes visible after the swelling has subsided. In around 10% of cases, however, the fat dissolving injection does not achieve the desired results, possibly due to resistance to the combination of active ingredients.
Results develop gradually over several weeks as the body metabolizes and eliminates the treated fat cells.
