Facial Fat Dissolving in Accra
Targeted injectable treatment that permanently reduces stubborn facial fat pockets for sharper definition.
Fat-dissolving injections permanently reduce stubborn facial fat pockets — the under-chin fullness and jowls that resist every diet — using deoxycholic acid, a molecule your body already uses to break down fat.
Who is it for?
Anyone with a double chin or heaviness along the jaw that blurs their profile. It is contouring, not weight loss — ideal for localised pockets on an otherwise balanced face.
What happens at your appointment?
A grid of micro-injections is placed into the fat pad — about 20 minutes. Swelling for several days afterwards is normal and is actually the treatment working. Fat cells are cleared gradually by your body over 4–6 weeks.
How many sessions?
Typically 2–4, spaced six weeks apart, depending on the pocket. The destroyed fat cells do not return. For body areas, see fat dissolving injections; for overall jaw definition, consider jawline enhancement or filler contouring.

About AmandaFacial Fat Dissolving — frequently asked questions
What is facial fat dissolving, and what does it treat?
It is a targeted injectable that permanently breaks down stubborn fat pockets under the chin (a double chin) and along the jowls, sharpening definition where diet and exercise cannot reach.
How much does it cost?
Facial fat dissolving is priced GHS 1,500 – GHS 2,000 — the under-chin area and jowls are quoted separately. Your consultation confirms how many areas and sessions you need.
How many sessions will I need?
Typically 2–4 sessions per area, spaced about six weeks apart, depending on how much fat is present. Results build gradually with each session.
Is it permanent?
Yes — once dissolved, the treated fat cells are cleared by your body and do not return, though maintaining a stable weight keeps results looking their best.
Does it hurt, and is there downtime?
The area is numbed first. Expect swelling — sometimes noticeable — for several days after each session as the fat breaks down; this is normal and part of how the treatment works.
Is it a weight-loss treatment?
No — it is precision contouring for specific stubborn pockets, not a way to lose weight. It is ideal for a double chin or jowls that resist everything else.
