Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections
If you are worried about fat bulges but you do not want to resort to surgery, Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections at Whyte Aesthetics may be the perfect solution for you.
This ever-popular body contouring treatment helps you to eliminate stubborn fat in your body or face that even exercise or diet cannot shift.
What are Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections?
Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections can restore and tone your shape without the cost and rigours of surgical procedures. Amazingly, this medical procedure is an incredible alternative to surgical liposuction.
It is natural for the body to store fat, subcutaneous fat, in order to supply energy in times of need. Every body distributes this fat by a genetically determined pattern. In almost all cases, this inherent distribution cannot be remedied by a special diet or increased physical exercise. Aqualyx injections are extremely effective and it is a non-invasive procedure for body sculpting.
Aqualyx Injections work by dissolving that stubborn, localised fat and tightening your skin from the inside. Unwanted bulges disappear and your skin becomes smoother. Furthermore, results are natural and long-lasting. Of course, it is important to note that Aqualyx should be combined with a healthy lifestyle for optimal results.
Areas that can be treated with Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections:
- The ‘saddle bags’ outer thighs
- Thighs
- Underarms
- Stomach and lower abdomen
- Chin and jowls
- Knees
- Pseudo-gynaecomastia (more commonly known as ‘man-boobs’
How do Aqualyx Injections work?
Aqualyx is a specially formulated compound solution that is injected into areas where there is a build-up of stubborn fat; this procedure is always performed by our specially trained and qualified medical professional.
Once these injections are administered into the targeted area, Aqualyx liquefies the targeted fat cells. The lipids are then flushed out naturally – and permanently – by your body’s lymphatic system. Our experts use a specialised plastic needle, making the procedure more comfortable. Even smaller areas, such as the double chin and jowls, can be tackled with ease!
How long do Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections take to work?
Aqualyx injections do begin to work straight after the treatment has taken place, at a gradual pace. In the following weeks, you should notice a reduction in fat deposits after your first treatment. This of course can vary from individual to individual and can take anything from around 3 to 6 weeks. It is important to understand that Aqualyx is a cumulative treatment, with results improving after each session, until you have reached your desired goals and look.
What is the downtime for Aqualyx?
Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections is a non-surgical treatment; therefore, downtime is minimal and there are no risks associated with surgery and general anaesthetics, which you would find with liposuction. After each treatment, patients can expect some swelling, redness, skin irritation and tenderness in the treated area. However, this should go away after 3-6 days. You should also expect bruising in the treated area, which will take around 1-2 weeks to go – all varying between individuals.
How many sessions of Aqualyx will I need?
As mentioned previously, the number of Aqualyx injections you need will depend on your own unique circumstances. Most patients generally need to repeat the treatment between 2-8 times, with 3-4 weeks between sessions.
Does Aqualyx hurt?
With Aqualyx injections, pain is fairly minimal. An anaesthetic is normally mixed into the solution prior to the injection for greater comfort.
