Overview of Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections
Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections are one of the newest aesthetic techniques for targeting stubborn, unwanted areas of fat on the body and face. It’s a highly effective, non surgical alternative to liposuction and surgery, often used to improve body contouring on areas such as the hips, saddlebags, stomach, thighs, the neck, face and chin. It is also favoured as a non-surgical technique for eradicating man boobs.
The procedure works by injecting a water based solution, deoxycholic acid, under the skin using very fine needles. The solution, which is similar to a substance produced by the body in the gut, contains plant polymers that break down the walls of the fat cell. The residue is then naturally excreted by the body, via the lymphatic system, as a waste product over a period of a few weeks.
As the procedure uses very fine needles, it’s minimally invasive, virtually pain-free, recovery time is minimal and the results are apparent in just a few weeks. As such it’s becoming increasingly popular as the preferred choice for tackling unwanted fat deposits where diets and exercise alone are not effective.

What Happens At My Consultation?
During your first consultation Mr Ahmad assesses you and the areas of concern. Mr Ahmad then discusses treatment options and gives his suggestions regarding the best options available. Risks and benefits are discussed and when you have completely understood and agreed, Mr Ahmad delivers the treatment.
How Long Does The Treatment Take?
Each session takes between 30-40 minutes. For the most effective results 2-8 sessions are required, depending on the volume of fat and size of focus area.
Are There Any Side Effects To The Procedure?
Following treatment there may be mild swelling, itching and bruising, but these should subside within five days.
Will I Need An Anesthetic?
A mild anesthetic is usually mixed into the Aqualyx® solution and administered at the same time as the treatment. However, the procedure is administered using very fine needles, so there should be minimal discomfort
Will I See The Surgeon Again After The Procedure?
If needed, top up injections are offered two to four weeks after the procedure.
When Can I Wear Makeup Again?
You can wear makeup immediately after the treatment.
How Long Do The Results Last?
The longevity varies from person to person, if a healthy weight is maintained it will last but if there is an increase in weight it will increase fat everywhere.
