Mesotherapy (Fat Dissolve) Injections
Aftercare & Emergency Contact Information

Thank you for choosing Ya Wee Butey for your Mesotherapy Fat Dissolve (Deso face/Deso body)treatment. Please follow these aftercare instructions carefully to achieve the best results.

 

About Your Treatment

Your treatment used DesoFace (for smaller areas such as chin, jowls, or neck) or DesoBody (for larger body areas such as abdomen, thighs, arms, or flanks).
These products contain sodium deoxycholate, which helps break down fat cells that are then naturally removed by your lymphatic system.

You may experience swelling, redness, tenderness, or bruising in the treated area — this is normal and can last for several days.

Immediately After Treatment

✅ Expect some swelling, redness, and tenderness. This is a normal inflammatory response and may last 3–7 days (sometimes longer for larger body areas).

✅ Apply a cool compress intermittently for short periods to help reduce swelling and discomfort.

❌ Do not apply ice directly to the skin.

✅ Avoid touching or massaging the treated area for at least 12 hours.

✅ Avoid applying makeup or fragranced products to the treated area for 24 hours.

For the First 48–72 Hours

Do’s

  • Keep well hydrated — drink plenty of water to support lymphatic drainage.

  • Eat a balanced, low-fat diet to aid the elimination of dissolved fat.

  • Gentle walking or light activity can help stimulate circulation and drainage.

  • If needed, take paracetamol for discomfort (avoid anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen unless advised).

Avoid

❌ Alcohol, caffeine, and very salty foods (these can worsen swelling).
❌ Hot baths, saunas, steam rooms, or swimming for 72 hours.
❌ Strenuous exercise for 48–72 hours.
❌ Other aesthetic treatments (e.g. laser, microneedling, or chemical peels) for 2 weeks.
❌ Tight clothing or pressure on the treated area.

During the Healing Process

  • Swelling, firmness, and tenderness may persist for several days; this is normal as fat cells break down.

  • Bruising or small lumps can occur — these will settle as your body clears the treated fat.

  • Avoid massaging unless specifically advised by your practitioner.

  • Results are gradual and will improve over 3–6 weeks as your body metabolises the fat.

  • Multiple sessions may be needed for optimal results (usually spaced 4–6 weeks apart).

Supporting Your Results

✨ Maintain a healthy diet and regular exercise to support the treatment outcome.
💧 Hydration is key — aim for 2–3 litres of water per day.
🌤 Protect the treated area from direct sun exposure and tanning until fully healed (use SPF 30+).
