The treatment must be preceded by a consultation with a doctor. The specialist assesses the cause of the weight gain (the product is effective when there is an excessive adipose tissue in the area, not when the double chin is due to clean excess skin), gives information on the nature of the treatment and what patients should expect in the following days and weeks. The number of the sessions needed to get the desired results is also assessed.

The procedure is performed after the area has been locally anesthetized with a subcutaneous injection of Lidocaine through a fine cannula with or without the addition of topical anaesthesia in the form of cream.

A special „injection template“, given by the manufacturer, will be placed  under the chin just before the procedure (15 minutes after the Lidocaine infiltration). The template will map out the exact injection points. The treatment is entirely done by injections, with the finest needle being used to reach into the subcutaneous adipose tissue. The volume of product injected in each point is 0.2ml (2mg) (the maximum tolerated dose for one session should not exceed 10ml (100mg) of the product). During the procedure the patients often experience burning sensation and / or pain when the product is being injected. Applying an ice compress for 15 minutes after the procedure reduces the discomfort.
