Fat-Dissolving Injections in Penang | CANVAS Medical Clinic
Dissolve small, stubborn fat pockets precisely — physician-administered injectable lipolysis at our Gurney Walk clinic in George Town. Ideal for the double chin, jawline and other defined areas too small or specific for other treatments.
What is Fat-Dissolving Injections?
Fat-dissolving injections — injectable lipolysis — reduce small, defined fat pockets from within. A physician injects a solution that disrupts the walls of fat cells in the target area; once broken down, the fat is cleared naturally by the body over the following weeks. Because it is delivered by needle in a precise grid, it reaches small, specific pockets that applicator-based treatments cannot contour as neatly.
At CANVAS Medical Clinic in George Town, Penang, fat-dissolving injections are the tool of choice for the submental fat pocket — the 'double chin' — and other small stubborn areas such as the jawline, knees, upper arms and flanks. The deliberate swelling afterwards is expected and part of the mechanism; results build gradually over a short course.
How it works
- Consultation & assessment. Your physician confirms the pocket suits injectable lipolysis and plans the number of sessions honestly.
- Marking & numbing. The area is mapped in a grid and numbed for comfort before treatment.
- Injection session. The fat-dissolving solution is injected across the grid into the target fat pocket — a short, precise procedure.
- Clearance & course. Expected swelling settles over days to weeks as the fat clears; two to four sessions several weeks apart build the result.

Who it's for
Fat-Dissolving Injections may be suitable if you:
- Have a double chin or small jawline fat pocket you want reduced
- Have defined, small stubborn pockets unsuited to larger applicators
- Prefer a precise, non-surgical approach to localised fat
- Are near your target weight and want to refine specific areas
- Accept expected swelling as part of the process
- Want the procedure performed by a physician
Fat-dissolving injections are for small, localised pockets in patients near their target weight, not for weight loss or large areas. They are not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or over infection in the area; expected swelling follows each session. Suitability is always confirmed at consultation.
Injections vs cryolipolysis vs EXION
Method follows the pocket. Fat-dissolving injections excel at small, precise areas — the double chin above all — where needle placement contours neatly. Cryolipolysis suits larger, pinchable pockets it can freeze in one applicator. BTL EXION melts fat while tightening the skin over it.
Small and specific: injectables. Larger and pinchable: freezing. Needs skin tightening too: EXION. Your CANVAS physician will match the tool — or combine them — to the area and your goal.
