Double Chin and Jawline
The most requested area by a considerable margin. Reducing submental fat sharpens the jawline definition and improves the neck angle in profile, which reads immediately in photographs.

Fat Burning Injections in Dubai
The double chin and jawline are the area patients ask about most — submental fat that holds its ground no matter how disciplined you are. PB Serum and Aqualyx target it directly on the face, and refine stubborn pockets on the body too, all without surgery.

In Short
Fat burning injections, also called fat-dissolving or lipolytic injections, use medical-grade compounds injected directly into localized fat deposits to break down fat cells, which the body then clears naturally. At Elora Polyclinic in Dubai we use PB Serum and Aqualyx. They treat the double chin and jawline, abdomen, flanks, upper arms, thighs and bra line. They are designed for localized fat reduction, not weight loss.

The Brands We Use
Products Selected per Area, Not per Clinic
An enzyme-based formulation that works on fat and on the fibrous tissue around it, which makes it useful where localized fat sits alongside firmness or irregular texture rather than as a soft deposit alone.
A widely used and well-documented lipolytic that disrupts the membrane of fat cells so their contents are released and cleared naturally. Particularly established for the double chin and small to medium localized deposits.
Both are internationally recognised medical-grade formulations. Which is chosen depends on the area, the character of the deposit and how much fibrous tissue is present alongside the fat — assessed at consultation rather than applied uniformly.
Where It Is Used
Treatment Areas
FaceNeckDécolletageHandsBodyScalp
Fat burning injections treat the double chin and jawline on the face, and the abdomen, flanks, upper arms, inner and outer thighs, back and bra line on the body. They are best suited to discrete, localized deposits rather than diffuse fat across a large area.
Options
Your Fat Burning Injections Options
02
Abdomen, Flanks and Bra Line
Targets the discrete pockets that persist at a stable weight — the lower abdomen, the flanks and the roll at the bra line that clothing makes obvious.
03
Arms and Thighs
Treats the upper arms and the inner and outer thighs, where localized deposits are common and where surgery feels disproportionate to the amount of change wanted.
Candidacy
Is Fat Burning Injections Right for You?
Good candidate if
- Close to a stable target weight with specific localized deposits
- A double chin that persists regardless of weight
- Good skin elasticity in the area being treated
- Wanting reduction without surgery or downtime
- Realistic expectations of gradual, moderate change
May not be right if
- Seeking weight loss rather than localized contouring
- Significant excess skin, where reduction may make laxity more apparent
- Diffuse fat across a large area rather than discrete deposits
- Liver or kidney conditions, or pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Active infection or inflammatory skin condition at the site
How Fat Burning Injections Is Performed, Step by Step
1
01
Assessment and Marking
The deposit is assessed for size, character and skin quality. Where laxity is the dominant issue rather than fat, we will tell you a different treatment is more appropriate.
2
02
Product Selection
PB Serum or Aqualyx is chosen based on the area and how much fibrous tissue sits alongside the fat.
3
03
Anaesthetic
Topical or local anaesthetic. The chin is generally the most sensitive area treated.
4
04
Injection Grid
The compound is delivered in a grid of small injections across the marked deposit, ensuring even distribution rather than concentration in one spot.
5
05
Expected Swelling Phase
Swelling in the following days is expected and is part of the mechanism. Under the chin it can be pronounced for two to four days.
6
06
Repeat Sessions
Two to four sessions four to six weeks apart, with the number confirmed as your response becomes clear rather than promised upfront.

What to consider
Fat burning injections are a contouring treatment, not a weight loss treatment, and they do not tighten loose skin. Swelling, tenderness, firmness and bruising in the days after treatment are expected and can be pronounced under the chin. Two to four sessions are usually needed and results build gradually over weeks. They are not suitable in pregnancy, breastfeeding, or with certain liver and kidney conditions. Remaining fat cells can still enlarge with weight gain, so a stable weight protects the result.
Recovery
Your Treatment Timeline
Days 1–2
Swelling begins and can be pronounced, particularly under the chin. This is expected and part of the mechanism.
Days 3–5
Swelling peaks then begins to reduce. Tenderness and firmness are normal. Most patients return to work within this window.
Weeks 1–2
Swelling largely resolved. The area may still feel firm or lumpy — this settles.
Weeks 4–6
First visible reduction. This is also when the next session is scheduled.
Weeks 8–12
Cumulative reduction becomes clear across sessions.
Months 3–4
Final result assessed once all sessions are complete and swelling has fully resolved.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do fat burning injections cost in Dubai?
They start from AED 200 per millilitre at Elora. Final pricing depends on the area treated and the number of sessions needed, which is confirmed at your complimentary consultation once the deposit has been assessed.
Are fat burning injections a weight loss treatment?
No, and this is the most important thing to understand. They reduce discrete, localized deposits — they are not a treatment for excess weight. The best candidates are already close to a stable target weight and bothered by specific areas.
Which products do you use?
PB Serum and Aqualyx, both internationally recognised medical-grade lipolytic formulations. Which one is used depends on the area and on how much fibrous tissue sits alongside the fat.
How many sessions will I need?
Usually two to four, spaced four to six weeks apart. The number depends on the size of the deposit and how you respond, and it is confirmed as treatment progresses rather than promised upfront.
Can they treat a double chin?
Yes — it is the most commonly treated area and one of the most rewarding, because reducing submental fat sharpens the jawline and improves the neck angle in profile.
Is there downtime?
Two to five days of swelling, tenderness and possible bruising. Under the chin, swelling can be pronounced for the first few days, so it is worth planning treatment away from important events.
Will the fat come back?
The fat cells destroyed in the treated area do not regenerate. However, remaining fat cells elsewhere can still enlarge if you gain weight, so a stable weight is what protects the result.
