Body contouring refers to a variety of treatments designed to reshape and sculpt your body by reducing stubborn fat deposits.

At Crystal Cosmetic Clinic in North York, body contouring means reshaping and refining your appearance through fat dissolving injections.

This non-surgical method helps reduce localized fat deposits that resist diet and exercise, creating smoother contours and enhancing your natural shape.

Our fat-dissolving treatments use deoxycholic acid, a bile acid naturally found in your body, to break down fat cells in targeted areas.

Once the fat cells are destroyed, your body eliminates them naturally through the lymphatic system.

✅ Belkyra® (known as Kybella® in the US) is the FDA-approved standard for treating double chin fat and is widely trusted worldwide.

Fat dissolving injections are generally safe when administered by experienced professionals.

❗ These treatments are not suitable if you are:

• Pregnant or breastfeeding

• Suffering from fat metabolism disorders

• Experiencing skin infections at the injection site

We provide a thorough consultation to ensure suitability.

To ensure the safest experience, we provide detailed guidance on how to prepare for your session. Download our Before Care Guide (PDF) for important pre-treatment tips.

A typical fat dissolving injection session at Crystal Cosmetic Clinic takes 20 to 45 minutes, depending on the area being treated and the number of injections needed.

🕒 Downtime & Recovery

Following treatment, it’s normal to experience some mild to moderate swelling, especially in the first few days. This is part of the body’s natural process of breaking down and clearing away fat cells.

• Swelling usually peaks around 2–3 days post-treatment and improves steadily over the next 1 to 2 weeks.

• Some tenderness, redness, or slight bruising may occur but generally resolves within several days.

• Most clients feel comfortable returning to light daily activities soon after, though we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, heat exposure, and alcohol for 48–72 hours to support the healing process.

Fat dissolving injections produce long-lasting results if you maintain a stable weight. Once fat cells are destroyed, they don’t regenerate — but weight gain can cause new fat to accumulate.

1. What is body contouring?
Body contouring refers to a variety of non-surgical cosmetic treatments designed to reshape and improve the body’s appearance. At Crystal Cosmetic Clinic in North York, we use advanced techniques to target stubborn fat, tighten skin, and enhance your natural body shape.

2. Who is a good candidate for body contouring?
Ideal candidates are those who are at or near their healthy weight but struggle with localized fat deposits or mild skin laxity that don’t improve with diet and exercise. Body contouring is not a weight-loss solution but rather a body-shaping treatment.

3. What areas of the body can be treated?
Popular treatment areas include:

• Abdomen and waistline (“love handles”)

• Thighs and hips

• Upper arms

• Back and bra fat

• Chin and jawline (double chin)

4. How long does a body contouring session take?
Most non-surgical sessions last between 30–60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. Multiple sessions may be recommended for optimal results.

5. Is body contouring painful?
Most clients report little to no discomfort. Treatments are generally well-tolerated and require no anesthesia. You may feel mild warmth, tingling, or suction during the procedure, but this usually subsides quickly.

6. How soon will I see results?
Results vary depending on the treatment type and individual body response. Many clients notice visible improvements within a few weeks, with optimal results typically seen after 2–3 months as the body naturally processes fat cells.

7. Is there any downtime after treatment?
No, one of the biggest advantages of non-surgical body contouring is that there’s little to no downtime. Most people can return to work and normal activities immediately after their session.

8. How long do results last?
Results can be long-lasting if you maintain a healthy lifestyle, including proper nutrition and regular physical activity. While fat cells that are eliminated won’t return, weight gain can affect the outcome.

9. How much does body contouring cost?
The cost varies depending on the treatment area, number of sessions, and the technology used. At Crystal Cosmetic Clinic, we offer competitive pricing for our North York clients. Contact us for a personalized consultation and exact quote.
