Stubborn Fat

About the condition

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.

Causes

The main causes of localized fat:
  • Hormonal factors: cortisol, estrogens, androgens, which influence fat distribution

  • Genetic predisposition and slow metabolism

  • Sedentary lifestyle or lack of targeted exercises for certain areas

  • Aging and loss of skin tone

  • Diet rich in simple sugars and saturated fats

How to prevent

To limit stubborn fat accumulation:
  • Maintain a balanced diet, low in added sugars and saturated fats

  • Engage in regular physical activity combining cardio and targeted strength training

  • Avoid significant weight fluctuations

  • Manage chronic stress, as high cortisol levels promote abdominal fat storage
