Fat Dissolving.
For the small, stubborn pockets that stay put whatever you do. On the face, that is under the chin and along the jowls. On the body, the tummy, the inner thighs and the upper arms. A course of treatment that breaks the fat down so the body can clear it, for women and men alike.

Fat, or skin?
Three Questions Lindsay Would Ask You
Fat dissolving only works on fat. Where the softness is loose skin it does nothing, and it is fairer to say so before you book.
01 When you gently pinch under your chin, what do you feel?
02 Has your weight been stable for the last six months?
03 When you tilt your head down, does the fullness stay or fold?
What that suggests
Answer the three questions and you will get an honest steer, not a diagnosis.
Ask Lindsay properlyWhat people come in for
Where It Helps
Under the Chin
The most common reason people ask. A double chin that has nothing to do with weight and does not move however much of it you lose.
Jowls
Small pockets along the jawline that blur the line between face and neck.
Profile
Where a soft chin is a fat pocket rather than a structural one, this is the answer, and where it is structural, filler is. Consultation tells you which.
The Tummy
A small pocket that sits over otherwise flat muscle and stays put whatever you do in the gym. Treated in the same way as the chin, over a course.
Inner Thighs
The area that rubs and that nothing seems to shift. Assessed carefully, because loose skin here responds to something else entirely.
Upper Arms
The back of the upper arm, where a small pocket shows in a short sleeve. Suitable for women and men alike, as every area here is.
How it works
How It Works
A solution is placed into the pocket of fat, where it breaks down the walls of the fat cells. The body then clears the released fat naturally over the weeks that follow. Because the cells themselves are removed rather than shrunk, the result is lasting, provided your weight stays stable.
What to Expect
Swelling is not a side effect here, it is the treatment working, and it can be considerable for the first week. Plan for it. Tenderness, warmth and sometimes bruising are also normal. A course of two to four sessions, four to six weeks apart, is usual, and results build gradually across it.
Honestly
This treats a small, localised pocket. It is not a route to losing weight and it will not change a face whose softness is structural. At consultation you are told plainly which yours is.
Afterwards
What Happens, and When
01 Straight after
Swollen, and Meant to Be
Swelling starts within hours and can be considerable. It is the treatment working, not a sign of a problem. Expect tenderness and warmth.
02 The first week
Plan Around It
The swelling is at its most noticeable. No strenuous exercise, no heat, no pressure on the area. Do not book anything important.
03 Weeks 2 to 6
It Settles, and the Body Clears
Swelling resolves and the fat released is cleared gradually. This is when you can start to see the change taking shape.
04 Over the course
The Result Builds
Two to four sessions, four to six weeks apart, each building on the last. The final result is judged two to three months after the last session.
Before you decide
Is This Right for You?
Tick anything that sounds like you. Nothing is recorded, and nothing here is a diagnosis: it is the conversation you would have in the room, started early.
Probably, yes
This Is Likely to Be for You If
Probably not, yet
This Is Not the Right Starting Point If
Tick what applies and you will be told where that leaves you.

Fat Dissolving Prices
A course is usually two to four sessions. The number is agreed after assessment, and you are told honestly if the pocket is not fat.
Before you book
Questions People Ask
The treated fat cells are removed rather than shrunk, so the result lasts provided your weight stays stable. Significant weight gain can affect it.
Noticeably, for around a week. The swelling is how the treatment works, and you should plan around it rather than be surprised by it.
Usually two to four, four to six weeks apart, depending on the size of the pocket and how you respond.
No. It treats a small, localised pocket. Weight management is a separate consultation and a separate page.
No. Every treatment here starts with a face-to-face consultation.
