There is something ultimately frustrating about unwanted fat. It affects how our clothing fits, makes us self-conscious and prevents us from feeling confident. Of course, proper diet and exercise help eliminate excess weight, but those last stubborn pounds seem to stick around.

Now with DC, people can take fat dissolving into their own hands and finally see the results they want so badly. This guide will help familiarize you with the benefits of DC and how it can help you achieve your body contouring goals.

What is DC?

DC is an injectable fat dissolving treatment consisting of deoxycholic acid. The treatment works by administering several micro-injections in a grid-like pattern in the target area by a trained medical professional.

How Does Fat Dissolving Work?

Fat dissolving breaks down fat deposits and cellulite on a cellular level. DC is a higher-concentration bile formulation that breaks down and liquifies fat cells while promoting waste removal from the body.

After receiving DC, the gradually dissolving fat is reabsorbed into the body and flushed out through the lymphatic system. The regimen includes two to five treatments about four to five weeks apart. 

Treatment Areas

The body naturally stores fat, first accumulating in the midsection, hips, and thighs. Individul body chemistry, genetics, sex, and age play just as much a part in how they store fat as exercise and diet. Everyone is unique and having fat stores is part of being healthy.

It however, isn’t uncommon to have several places where you would like to get rid of extra inches. DC ideally treats the following areas:

• 
  Under the chin
• Bra strap areas
• Arms
• Stomach
• Hips
• Thighs
• Knees 
• Ankles

Ultimately, anywhere you have pinchable fat deposits on your body is treatable with fat dissolving injections. First, however, speaking with your provider about your trouble spots and possible outcomes is a good idea.

Who is an Ideal Candidate for DC?

People close to their ideal weight and maintaining a relatively healthy lifestyle are the optimal candidates for DC. If you want significant weight loss, DC may give you limited results. That being said, it doesn’t eliminate DC as an option; instead, it can be incorporated into a new health plan and used when you are closer to your target weight.

If you are excited about this fat dissolving method, but aren’t sure if you are a good candidate, speak with your certified practitioner and determine the best action plan to suit your goals.

Recovery and Results

DC recipients are happy to report minimal downtime related to their fat dissolving treatment. Side effects may include:

• minor bruising
• swelling
• tenderness
• warmth at the site
• itchiness

Those who get injections around the face may want to delay significant outings for a week until the swelling subsides. Most side effects last only a few days as the body heals. Some results will be noticed about 3-4 weeks after the first treatment, with full, permanent results seen 3-4 weeks after your last treatment.

One caveat is that it doesn’t prevent weight gain, and with regular exercise and proper nutrition, your results will last longer.
