INJECTABLE FAT DISSOLVERS

SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE WAYS TO SHRINK AND DEFINE

Aqualyx and Lipolax are suitable for those wanting to shrink small areas of fatty tissue. It is not a weight loss solution. Ideal candidates are in the healthy BMI range and follow a balanced lifestyle

Aqualyx® and Lipolax® are non surgical solutions to shrink small pockets of stubborn fat. Even when we diet and exercise regularly there can be stubborn areas that are hard to combat. This technique consists of injecting small amounts of a natural solution “phosphatidylcholine” into the target area. This solution permanently destroys fat cells, reducing the size of the treatment area.

FAT DISSOLVING FAQ

What is Aqualyx or Lipolax?


Aqualyx® and Lipolax are clinically proven gel-based solutions, derived from cholanic acid, which when injected will dissolve and help to break down fats.

Both are different brands, that are effective at treating small deposits of stubborn fat.

How do fat dissolving injections work?


Aqualyx® or Lioplax dissolves the membranes of fat cells in the treated area. The fat cells become unstable and break open. The fatty acids contained within the cell are then eliminated by macrophages (part of the body’s immune system) and the liver

Is there any after effects?
Yes. Immediately after treatment you may appear red and swollen with some bruising on the treated area. Aqualyx® works by causing an inflammatory reaction in the fat cells which can result in obvious swelling for 3-5 days.
Is it painful?
We will numb the areas that you want treated prior to your session to ensure your comfort.
How many sessions will I need?
This is solely dependant on you as a client, and the type and stubbornness of either the visceral (abdomen) or submental (under chin) fat you are carrying. We will however guide you into a realistic treatment plan should you be eligible for this procedure. An average we generally see in clinic is 1-2 sessions for the chin area and bra strap fat, and 2-4 sessions for the abdominal and thighs. An indication of successful treatments, for every 10 clients that our clinic has seen, 2 have required a second session in the area to target stubborn deposits, as again results do solely depend on you. Results are individual, and can not be guarenteed.
How soon will I see results?
Results can be seen within as little as 2-6 weeks, however in some cases it can take upto 3 months, so do plan ahead for this treatment.
