Body Contouring
Target. Refine. Contour.
Sometimes, even with a healthy lifestyle, small areas of stubborn fat can remain resistant to change.
Body contouring at Paulosophy Aesthetics uses injectable fat-dissolving treatment to target carefully selected areas of localised fat, helping to refine and improve body contours without surgery.
Treatment is individually planned following assessment, with realistic expectations at the centre of every treatment plan.
This isn't a weight-loss treatment - it's about targeted contouring.
What is fat dissolving?
Targeted treatment for localised fat
Fat-dissolving injections are used to target small, localised deposits of unwanted fat in appropriately selected treatment areas.
The treatment works by disrupting fat cells within the targeted area, which are then gradually processed by the body over time.
Because everybody's starting point and goals are different, suitability, treatment area and the number of sessions required are assessed individually.
What areas can be treated?
Small or large area?
Small Area
Single Treatment - £100
Course of 3 - £250
Large Area
Single Treatment - £175
Course of 3 - £450
The size of the treatment area and amount of product required will be determined following assessment; where an area falls outside standard treatment parameters, this will be discussed before proceeding.
Is body contouring right for me?
Contouring, not weight loss
Injectable body contouring is designed for appropriately selected clients with localised areas of unwanted fat rather than as a treatment for general weight loss.
Your consultation considers the area you'd like to treat, your expectations, medical history and whether injectable treatment is likely to provide an appropriate result.
If treatment isn't suitable or your goals are unlikely to be achieved with fat-dissolving injections, this will be discussed openly during consultation.
What to expect
Consultation
Assessing the area and your goals
Treatment
Carefully planned injections across the selected area
Recovery
Temporary swelling, tenderness and bruising should be expected
Progress
Changes develop gradually as the treated area responds over the following weeks
More than one treatment may be recommended depending on the area, starting point and desired outcome.
Results take time
Gradual change. Realistic expectations.
Body contouring isn't an instant treatment and changes develop gradually following each session.
Your individual response, treatment area and starting point will influence the result, and some clients may require a course of treatments rather than a single appointment.
The aim is improvement in contour - not perfection or a particular body shape.
Safety
Informed treatment matters.
Fat-dissolving injections are medical aesthetic treatments and can cause expected effects including swelling, tenderness, redness and bruising, alongside less common complications that will be discussed during consultation and consent.
Treatment is only provided following assessment of your suitability, and you'll receive clear aftercare guidance including when you should contact the clinic.
Your safety and suitability always take priority over proceeding with treatment.
FAQs
Is fat-dissolving a weight loss treatment?
No, it is designed to target selected areas of localised fat rather than provide overall weight loss.
How many treatments will I need?
the number of sessions required varies according to the treatment area, starting point and individual response.
When will I see results?
Changes develop gradually over the weeks following treatment rather than appearing immediately.
Does fat-dissolving hurt?
Some discomfort, stinging or tenderness can occur during and after treatment, although individual experiences vary.
Will I swell afterwards?
yes, temporary swelling is an expected response and can be accompanied by tenderness, redness or bruising.
Can I return to work afterwards?
Many clients can continue normal daily activities, although visible swelling or discomfort may influence your plans depending on the area treated.
Are the results permanent?
Fat cells disrupted by treatment do not regenerate in the same way, but remaining fat cells can still enlarge with future weight gain.
Can anyone have fat-dissolving injections?
No, treatment isn't suitable for everyone and your medical history, treatment area and goals will be assessed before proceeding.
Stubborn area that won't shift?
You don't need to decide how much product or how many treatments you need before booking.
We'll assess the area, discuss what you'd like to achieve and determine whether injectable body contouring is an appropriate option for you.
