A proprietary blend of deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in the body to aid in the digestion and breakdown of fats. By destroying fat cell membranes, it helps metabolize excess fat. This is one of the most effective non-surgical treatments available today. The metabolized fat is naturally excreted from the body through metabolism. Even hereditary localized fat deposits can be dissolved and metabolized. Belkyra is the only fat-dissolving injection approved by Health Canada, and it is also the only medical cosmetic surgery with permanent effect.
