Fat Dissolving Consultation
Fat Dissolving Consultation: Assess. Advise. Plan.
If you have small, stubborn pockets of fat that have not responded to diet and exercise, such as under the chin, a consultation with our doctor can help you understand whether a non-surgical option may be suitable for you.
Body contouring is about subtle refinement, not weight loss. Our doctor will give you a realistic view of what is, and is not, achievable, including the option of no treatment.

What Happens at Your Consultation?
Body contouring is not a weight loss treatment. Contouring options are generally suited to small, well-defined pockets of fat that have not responded to diet and exercise, and are not suitable for large areas.
At MedSkin Studios you are always assessed first to confirm whether the area is appropriate and whether the fat is superficial rather than deeper structural fat.
Your consultation has three stages:
- 1. Assessment: The area, your skin and your medical history are reviewed.
- 2. Discussion: Options, risks, expected recovery and alternatives, including no treatment, are explained.
- 3. Your plan: You receive a clear plan with costs. If any medication is clinically appropriate, it is discussed and prescribed separately after your consultation.
Areas We Can Discuss
At your consultation we can discuss small, well-defined pockets of fat in areas such as:
- Chin & Jaw: The area beneath the chin, by far the most common concern.
- Body: Bra line, flanks, upper arms, inner thighs and above the knees.
- Abdomen: Small localised pockets on the stomach that persist despite diet and exercise.
Why Start With a Consultation
- Doctor-led: Your assessment is with a GMC-registered doctor.
- Honest: A realistic view of what is, and is not, suitable for you.
- Clear: Costs, recovery and aftercare explained before you decide anything.
What to Expect
- Consultation: The area is assessed to confirm whether it is suitable for any contouring option, and your medical history is reviewed.
- Aftercare: If you go ahead with any treatment, you will be given written aftercare advice specific to it.
Results vary between individuals and no outcome can be guaranteed. Your doctor will discuss realistic expectations with you.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens at the consultation?
Our doctor assesses the area, reviews your medical history and discusses whether a non-surgical option is suitable, along with the alternatives.
Do I have to go ahead after the consultation?
No. The consultation is for assessment and advice, and the right option may be no treatment at all.
Who is it not suitable for?
Contouring is not suitable for large areas of fat or as a substitute for weight loss. Some medical conditions also rule it out, which is why an in-person assessment comes first.
Is this a weight loss treatment?
No. It is only for small, stubborn pockets of fat and will not reduce your overall body weight. It works best when your weight is already stable.
Can you guarantee results?
No. Results vary between individuals and no outcome can be guaranteed. Your doctor will discuss realistic expectations, including the effect of weight change, at your consultation.
