What should you discuss before treatment?
Ask about the actual product, intended area and rationale before focusing on a treatment name. The phrase “fat dissolving” does not mean all products have the same evidence or are appropriate for every area.

What are the expectations and limitations?
Injection treatments carry product- and site-dependent risks. Product approval in one country does not establish approval in another country or for a different body area; local status must be checked separately.
Preparing for a consultation
- Describe the change you are hoping for and what matters most to you.
- Share your previous procedures, medical history, medicines and allergies.
- Ask about alternatives, recovery, follow-up and the total proposed cost.
