Why choose AQUALYX treatment?
AQUALYX in an injectable treatment that simply and safely dissolves targeted areas of excessive fat, literally dissolving away the fat cells.
Sometimes diet and exercise are not enough to produce the shape and profile we want and some areas can be left behind, being particularly stubborn and hard to shift.
That’s where AQUALYX injections can come in, as they can be used to target and break down the buildup of fatty cells.
Once administered, the fat cells are broken down and expelled by normal bodily functions, leaving a leaner silhouette.

AQUALYX can be used anywhere that fat cells build up on the face or neck. Popular treatment areas are:

How it works
The science behind AQUALYX
AQUALYX contains desoxycholan-acid. This is a secondary bile acid which is already produced in the body by the liver, where it helps to break down fat.
The inventor of AQUALYX, Professor Pasquale Motolese, harnessed the fat-dissolving effects of this acid in a synthetically manufactured variant.
The acid in AQUALYX locks on to the the fat cell walls and breaks them down, releasing the fatty acid within.
The body’s natural processes metabolise and expel the fat cells, leaving a smoother/leaner profile.

Got a Question?
AQUALYX is very effective for body contouring and skin tightening with the solution starting to work immediately upon injection. AQUALYX has been recognised as the non-invasive alternative to liposuction.
The Fat Dissolving Injections are a specially formulated compound solution which is injected by our highly skilled doctor’s and works by breaking down fatty deposits over time. The fat cells are then naturally dissolved and flushed out of by the body through the lymphatic system.
In almost all cases this natural distribution of fat stores cannot be remedied through diet or exercise.
This is due to the inflammatory reaction that AQUALYX triggers in the fat cells. Your clinician will explain this fully and also discuss any further concerns based on your medical history in the consultation prior to treatment.
These side effects are generally quite manageable and short-lasting, but clients are encouraged to get in touch in case of any concerns.
This figure is increasing all the time as practitioners and patients realise the benefits of treatment.
It is also inappropriate for patients with diabetes, allergies against any of the product's components, medical history including anaphylactic reactions and/or severe allergies, autoimmune diseases, acute or chronic skin diseases in the affected area and other severe organic diseases.
The majority of patients are found to be suitable for treatment.
Your suitability for treatment will be assessed during your consultation with the Aesthetic Clinician.
AQUALYX is cased with galactose and supplied with 2 additional hydroxyl compounds for increased efficacy.
