V-OLET

Days 0-3

Significant swelling, tenderness, and possible bruising in the submental area — expected from fat cell destruction.

Weeks 1-3

Swelling subsides gradually. Numbness or firmness under the chin can persist briefly.

Weeks 4-8

Visible submental fat reduction and skin tightening develop per session.

After full course

Durable jawline definition — destroyed fat cells do not return absent significant weight gain.

First week

Avoid heat (sauna, hot baths), strenuous exercise, and alcohol. Cold compress eases swelling.

Weeks 1-3

Swelling is expected and resolves gradually. A chin compression strap may help comfort.

Between sessions

Sessions are spaced 4 weeks apart; the dermatologist reassesses fat distribution each visit.

Long-term

Maintain stable weight — remaining fat cells can enlarge with significant weight gain.
