Stubborn Fat
What Is Stubborn Fat?
Stubborn fat is the kind of fat that just doesn’t seem to go away, no matter how much you diet or exercise. It’s also known as subcutaneous fat, which is the fat that sits just under your skin. It often shows up in areas like the stomach, hips, thighs, buttocks, lower belly, and upper arms.
Everyone stores fat differently, and that’s mostly due to genetics and hormones. Some people naturally gain more weight around their hips and thighs, while others might notice it more around the waist. Hormones like estrogen and cortisol also affect where fat builds up.
As we get older, our metabolism slows down, which makes it easier to gain fat and harder to lose it. A sedentary lifestyle or a diet high in processed foods can make this even worse.
There are two main types of fat in the body:
● Visceral fat is stored deeper inside the body, around your organs. This type of fat can affect your health and needs to be managed through long-term lifestyle and diet changes.
● Subcutaneous fat is the stubborn fat just under the skin. It’s not as harmful as visceral fat, but it can be tough to get rid of and often affects how we feel about our appearance.
Even with regular workouts and healthy eating, many people still struggle to lose this kind of fat. That’s why some treatments are designed specifically to target stubborn subcutaneous fat in those hard-to-tone areas.
What do we offer at Amaran for Stubborn Fat?
At Amaran we offer lipolytic injections and radiofrequency with ultrasound treatments specifically designed to reduce stubborn fat and enhance skin firmness. These safe, US FDA-approved, non-invasive procedures are ideal for areas that are resistant to diet and exercise, helping you achieve a more sculpted and toned appearance.
Lipolytic Injections
These injections work by breaking down localized fat deposits. Once the fat cells are disrupted, they are gradually eliminated by the body’s natural metabolic processes, leading to a more contoured look over time.
Non-invasive body contouring treatments using BTL Exilis and BTL Vanquish
Two globally recognized technologies that use radiofrequency (RF) and ultrasound energy to tighten skin and reduce unwanted fat.
BTL Exilis combines radiofrequency and ultrasound to heat the skin and underlying tissues, stimulating collagen production and improving skin laxity. It’s ideal for facial contouring, under-eye tightening, and small areas of loose skin.
BTL Vanquish targets larger areas like the abdomen, thighs, or flanks. Using contactless radiofrequency, it selectively heats and destroys fat cells without damaging surrounding tissues. It's safe, painless, and suitable for a wide range of body types.
What are the limitations & realistic expectations?
While both treatments offer visible improvement in body shape and skin tone, it's important to understand they are not weight-loss procedures. Results are most effective in individuals who are close to their ideal weight or have mild to moderate fat deposits.
For clients with a BMI above the normal range, the treatments can still support inch loss, skin tightening, and fat cell reduction, but the results may be less dramatic and take longer to become noticeable. Multiple sessions and consistent maintenance may be required for optimal outcomes.
We believe in transparency during your consultation. Our team will assess your body type, discuss your goals, and set realistic expectations to ensure you're fully informed before starting any treatment.
Experience safe, comfortable, and clinically backed body contouring at Amaran where your results are guided by science and honesty.
Radiofrequency + Ultrasound Treatment
This advanced technology uses controlled heat energy to stimulate collagen production beneath the skin’s surface. The result is firmer, tighter skin along with enhanced fat reduction in targeted areas.
