Will a fat dissolving injection reduce a bulge under the skin?

If the subcutaneous fat lumps that the patient is referring to are... cyst (Cyst) These are sacs under the skin that contain fluid or fat. Fat dissolving injection cannot help reduce the size of cysts. Because cysts are not the same type of fat accumulation that can be broken down with fat-dissolving injections.

The appropriate treatment for cysts is surgical removal, or injecting certain substances into the cyst to reduce its size (but this is less effective and not commonly used). This must be done by a doctor only. It is not recommended to press on, attempt to remove it yourself, or use inappropriate devices.

As for fat dissolving injections, they can help reduce subcutaneous fat deposits, such as those in the cheeks and chin, but results may vary from person to person. The medication, dosage, and frequency must be chosen appropriately for each individual's problem.

Therefore, if a patient has fatty lumps under the skin, the most important thing is... Consult a doctor to diagnose whether it's a common fat deposit or a cyst. In order to receive the correct and appropriate treatment for the patient's problem.
