Stubborn fat refers to localized fat deposits that persist despite a balanced diet and regular physical activity. These areas often correspond to genetic or hormonal predispositions.
The most frequently affected areas are the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, back, and submental region (double chin). Even in slender individuals, these deposits can persist and alter the body's contour.
At Clinique SkinIn, located in Quartier Dix30 in Brossard, treatments combine advanced laser technology and targeted injections to reduce fat and redefine contours, without surgery or scars.
