What is Lipolysis?
Lipolysis, also called fat-dissolving injections, uses a medication to break down small, stubborn pockets of fat. Your body then clears the treated cells, leaving a smoother contour with no surgery.

What Happens During Lipolysis Treatment
Your visit at Golden Rose Wellness & Medical Spa in Apopka/Orlando, FL starts with Dr. Vega mapping where you hold pinchable fat and reviewing your health history. Numbing cream is applied, photos are taken for comparison, and she marks the area. She then uses a fine needle for many tiny injections across it, and you can expect a little stinging and warmth. The appointment is brief, but the treated area stays swollen and sore for several days.
03
When to Expect Results
Lipolysis works in stages across a planned series, not after a single visit. Swelling settles over several days, and early slimming often shows by your second session as the pocket looks flatter. Later sessions refine the contour, and photo comparisons at each visit let you see the change build.
04
Ideal Candidate for Lipolysis
People with a small, defined pocket of pinchable fat that holds on despite healthy habits.
Those bothered by fullness under the chin, along the jowls, the bra line or the inner knee.
Patients comfortable with a few visits and some swelling for several days after each one.
Anyone who understands it reduces pockets of fat and does not significantly tighten loose skin.
Areas We Can Treat
What Fat-Dissolving Injections Treat
Fullness Under the Chin
Under-chin fullness can make you feel heavier in photographs than you are in real life. Treating this small pocket helps reveal a cleaner transition from neck to jaw so your profile matches how you feel.
Treatments+
A grid of tiny injections is placed in the soft pocket under your chin. Over a planned series, those cells break down and clear through your body’s own pathways so the angle under your jaw looks more defined.
Causes+
Genetics, aging, and hormone shifts can all cause fat to sit under the chin, even when your overall weight is stable and your lifestyle is healthy.

FAQ
Your Fat-Dissolving Questions,
Answered
Here are the most common questions patients ask about fat-dissolving injections at Golden Rose Wellness & Medical Spa, answered in clear, honest language.
Most patients need more than one visit, often a small series with time between so your body can respond to treatment. Dr. Vega estimates your likely number of treatments at your consultation after measuring the pocket and reviewing how your skin behaves.
Fat cells that respond to treatment do not come back. Remaining fat cells can still enlarge with weight gain, so stable habits help you keep the contour you achieve at Golden Rose Wellness & Medical Spa.
Noticeable swelling, tenderness, and a firm feeling in the treated area are expected for several days. Dr. Vega explains what is normal for your plan and helps you time appointments around work and social events so you feel prepared.
Most patients describe brief stinging or warmth during the injections, which topical numbing helps soften. Soreness and puffiness afterward are usually the main discomforts and tend to settle over the days following each visit.
Fat-dissolving injections focus on reducing small pockets of fullness and do not significantly tighten skin on their own. If you already see laxity, Dr. Vega may suggest pairing injections with skin-focused treatments so both concerns are addressed together.
Both are non-surgical ways to reduce fat in focused areas. Fat-dissolving injections use a medication placed directly into the pocket, while CoolSculpting relies on controlled cooling through an applicator. Dr. Vega recommends injections when a small, clearly defined bulge calls for precise mapping.
Fat-dissolving injections use a medication that disrupts the outer layer of targeted fat cells so your body can break them down. Dr. Vega places many tiny injections in a planned pattern over the pocket, then allows time between sessions for your lymphatic system to clear treated cells and reveal gradual change.
They are injectable treatments designed to reduce small, stubborn areas of pinchable fat in places like under the chin, along the bra line, or near the knees. At Golden Rose Wellness & Medical Spa, Dr. Vega first confirms that your concern is the kind of focused pocket that responds to this approach before planning any series.
Yes, they work well for the right candidate with a defined pocket that does not shift with healthy eating and activity. Dr. Vega assesses your anatomy, reviews your goals, and explains what degree of change is realistic so you can decide confidently whether this treatment makes sense for you.
