Body Contouring

VEI Clinic's fat-dissolving injection is the Melting Cut injection. It is injected into the fat under the skin of the upper arms, abdomen, thighs, calves, back and underarm area, and it contains no PPC, steroids or hyaluronidase.

At your consultation we first check the fat thickness and skin laxity of each area, then decide on the areas and number of sessions. Every treatment room is private. We explain the names, ingredients and precautions of the medicines we use during your visit.

VEI Clinic uses Small Fit contouring injections as its facial fat-dissolving injection. It is injected in small amounts where fat stands out, such as a double chin, the jawline or the cheeks, with the aim of thinning the fat layer there.

The face has small areas close to nerves, so we plan a different dose from the body, and we go over the benefits and what to expect during your visit.

VEI Clinic offers intermittent negative pressure sessions for the lower body with VACUMED. You lie down with your lower body inside a cylinder while negative and normal pressure alternate, drawing blood into the legs and then releasing it.

Whether it suits you is explained after an internal medicine consultation, and the treatment room is private.

Cellulite is a dimpled look that forms when fat beneath the skin pushes up between fibrous bands. It is common on the front and back of the thighs, buttocks, belly and upper arms, and appears in slim people too. No method removes it completely in one go, so treatment aims to make it less visible and keep it managed over time.

Depending on the area and cause, we choose or combine LPG Endermologie (a mechanical cellulite massage device), shockwave therapy, Tune Body with its radiofrequency handpiece, and Melting Cut fat-dissolving injections. The number of sessions is set after we examine you.

Pinchable fat under the skin of the belly and upper arms can be targeted with fat-dissolving injections to reduce its thickness. These injections do not reduce body weight; they refine the circumference of an area, and how much changes depends on the thickness of the fat.

Injections cannot reach visceral fat deep inside the abdomen, which is reduced with diet, exercise and, if needed, obesity treatment. We first estimate visceral fat with an InBody body composition test and then choose how to address belly fat.

Besides injections, abdominal fat options include Tune Body, which uses ultrasound on the fat layer, and AccuCurv, which works on the abdominal muscles. We choose based on fat thickness and muscle condition.

Endermologie, often called cellulite massage, is a mechanical treatment in which the LPG device uses suction to lift and release the skin in repeated cycles of contraction and relaxation. Radiofrequency cellulite treatment delivers heat energy beneath the skin. With Tune Body, the Accentuate handpiece is used on the buttocks, abdomen or thighs.

Laser cellulite treatments use light energy, and VEI Clinic does not offer laser treatment for cellulite. Which approach suits you is decided after an exam that checks fat thickness, skin laxity and swelling.

The injection VEI Clinic uses for cellulite is Melting Cut, a fat-dissolving injection. Rather than breaking down cellulite itself, it aims to reduce the thickness of the fat layer beneath the dimpled skin. Whether skin texture improves as that fat layer thins varies from person to person, and cellulite may stay the same even after repeated injections.

Swelling, bruising and aching can occur at the injection sites. These usually settle within a few days to 1 to 2 weeks, although firm lumps you can feel may last longer. If pain gets worse or redness spreads, please contact the clinic right away.

Whether cellulite treatment changes your skin texture, and how long any change lasts, depends on the method and the person. Treatments that mobilize the tissue, such as Endermologie, may have temporary effects, and some people notice no change even after several sessions.

Body contouring results that reduce the fat layer can also fade if you gain weight, because the remaining fat cells can grow larger again. Keeping your weight steady with diet and exercise is part of maintaining any change.
