Fat Dissolving Injections in 2026: Advanced Body Contouring Without Surgery

Fat dissolving injections have become increasingly sophisticated in 2026, offering effective non-surgical solutions for stubborn fat deposits. At Anastasia Beauty Aesthetics in Pontefract, we use the latest techniques to help clients achieve their body contouring goals.

Understanding Fat Dissolving Treatments

Fat dissolving injections, such as Aqualyx, contain deoxycholic acid that breaks down fat cells in targeted areas. Once destroyed, these fat cells are naturally eliminated by the body, resulting in permanent fat reduction in the treated area.

Ideal Treatment Areas

  • Double chin and jawline
  • Upper arms (bingo wings)
  • Abdomen and love handles
  • Inner and outer thighs
  • Bra fat and back rolls
  • Knee fat deposits

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Fat dissolving injections are ideal for individuals at or near their target weight who have localised fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise. This treatment is not a weight loss solution but rather a body contouring procedure for specific problem areas.

The Treatment Process

During your consultation at our West Yorkshire clinic, we assess the treatment area and create a customised plan. The procedure involves multiple small injections into the fat deposit. Most clients require 2-4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results.

What to Expect After Treatment

  • Mild swelling and tenderness for 3-5 days
  • Gradual fat reduction over 6-8 weeks
  • Progressive improvement with each session
  • Permanent results once fat cells are eliminated
  • Enhanced body contours and definition

Advances in 2026

The latest developments include improved injection techniques for reduced discomfort, enhanced formulations for faster results, and combination treatments with other body contouring procedures for comprehensive results.

Maintaining Your Results

While the destroyed fat cells are permanently eliminated, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential to prevent remaining fat cells from expanding. We provide comprehensive aftercare advice and support throughout your journey.

Serving clients across Pontefract, Castleford, Knottingley, and throughout West Yorkshire, we're committed to helping you achieve your body contouring goals with safe, effective fat dissolving treatments.
