De Fat Solution

De Fat Solution

De Fat Solution is a lipolytic injectable solution based on deoxycholic acid, with sodium deoxycholate (the sodium salt of deoxycholic acid) named as a key ingredient. It is intended for injection into the subcutaneous fat layer in professional body and facial contouring treatments.

Composition

• Deoxycholic acid of non-animal, non-human origin
• Sodium deoxycholate
• Other natural ingredients (not specified by the supplier)

Manufacturing

According to the supplier, the product is manufactured using aseptic processing with UV sterilisation and hydrothermal sterilisation.

Mode of action as described

Deoxycholic acid acts on both aqueous and lipophilic environments and is used to disrupt fat cell membranes. The supplier describes the sequence as follows:

1. The solution is injected directly into the fat layer.
2. It is taken up by fat cells, causing a local inflammatory response.
3. Affected fat cells break down over a period of weeks.
4. Cell debris is cleared through the lymphatic system.

More background on this process is available in our article on lipolysis.

• Bra-line bulge, love handles and abdomen
• Upper back (buffalo hump)
• Upper arms
• Hips and thighs

Professional use only. De Fat Solution must be administered by a qualified, licensed medical practitioner.
