INTRODUCTION

Deoxycholic acid and phosphatidylcholine injection is indicated for improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe convexity or fullness associated with submental fat, also called “double chin” (in adults) and other small fat pockets on the body. This mixture is injected into the fat (no more than 50 injections or 10 ml under the skin). The injections will be given at least 1 month apart and you may need more than one treatment. Health care providers, in conjunction with the patient, will decide how many treatments are needed. This is an alternative to deooxycholine phosphatidylcholine brand.

POSSIBLE RISKS and SIDE EFFECTS

​Every injection of a drug involves a certain amount of risk.  Below are risks reported during clinical studies that are specific to the injections.

​

  • The injections will commonly cause swelling, bruising, pain, numbness, redness, and areas of hardness in the treatment area.  The injections can also cause tingling, nodule itching, skin tightness, and headache.  These side effects typically resolve without treatment and do not commonly result in patients discontinuing treatments.

  • Other less common potential side effects include:

    • ​Nerve injury: The compound injections could cause nerve injury in the area of the jaw, resulting in an uneven smile or facial muscle weakness. In the clinical trial these all resolved without treatment in an average of 6 weeks.

    • Swallowing: The compound injections can temporarily cause trouble with swallowing during the swelling phase. This resolves near 5 days. 

    • Skin Ulceration: The compound injections could cause superficial skin erosions.

    • Alopecia: The compound injections could cause small patches of alopecia in the treatment area.

    • Unsatisfactory results: There is a possibility of an unsatisfactory result from injections of the compound . The procedure may result in unacceptable visible deformities or asymmetry in the treatment area.
