Love Handle Fat Dissolving in Mississauga & Kleinburg
Injectable fat dissolving for small, stubborn pockets that diet and exercise have not changed, planned after a careful assessment.
Love handle fat dissolving
The flanks, often called love handles, are the soft pockets of fat that sit at the sides of the waist just above the hips. They are a common area of stubborn fat for both women and men, and they can make jeans and fitted clothing feel uncomfortable.
Fat dissolving injections permanently break down a portion of the fat cells on each side. As your body clears them over the following weeks, the waistline looks smoother and more defined.
At SKINFIDELITY, every plan starts with an assessment of your skin, the fat pocket and your goals. If fat dissolving injections are not the best fit, we will tell you and talk through the alternatives.
Who it is for
You have soft, pinchable fat above the hips on one or both sides.
You are active and close to your goal weight but the area has not changed.
You want a gradual, non-surgical improvement with minimal time off.
What to expect
Each session takes about 45 minutes.
- Assessment and photos from the front, side and back
- Mapping both flanks for an even, balanced result
- Small injections across each marked area
- Aftercare advice for clothing and activity
- Review in about six weeks
An honest note
Kybella (sold in Canada as Belkyra) is approved by Health Canada for fat under the chin. Using it on the body is considered off label, which means it is a medical decision made case by case. We explain this clearly at your consultation so you can decide with all the facts.
Fat dissolving is not a weight loss treatment. It works best for people who are close to their goal weight and want to refine a small area that has not changed with diet and exercise.
Good questions
How many sessions will I need?
Most love handle plans take two to four sessions spaced about six weeks apart. The exact number depends on the size of the area and how your body responds, and we review progress at every visit.
Does it hurt?
You will feel a warm, stinging sensation for several minutes after the injections. We apply cooling and numbing where appropriate to keep you comfortable.
What is the downtime?
Swelling, tenderness, bruising and a firm or numb feeling in the area are common for one to two weeks. Most clients return to work the next day and wear loose clothing while the swelling settles.
Are the results permanent?
Fat cells that are destroyed do not come back. Remaining fat cells can still grow with weight gain, so a stable weight helps you keep your result.
Individual results vary. Every treatment follows a consultation and assessment.
