Aqualyx

Aqualyx® is used to treat pockets of fat underneath the surface of the skin.

Areas include fat pockets on the back, chin, stomach, underneath the buttocks, hips, thighs and knees. It can also be used to treat pseudo-gynaecomastia, the development of fatty tissue around the nipple, resulting in a “breast”-like appearance in men

Clinical data shows that the application of AQUALYX® is effective and safe, leading to an increasingly contoured appearance.

Results are permanent under the condition you maintain a constant weight and healthy lifestyle

Treatment can take between 30 – 60 minutes per treatment and you will typically require 2 – 8 treatments, 4 weeks apart. Some people may see significant results after 1 or 2 sessions.

Treatment for fat pockets underneath the neck and chin, for example, may require 1 – 3 treatments of 2 – 3 injections, while treatment for fat pockets on the hips and thighs may require 8 treatments.

AQUALYX® is not recommended for women who are pregnant or breast feeding. It is also not recommended for those people who have been diagnosed with lipodystrophy or any pathological conditions.

It should only be used in people aged 18 – 60.

Side effects include some redness, swelling and tenderness in the treated area.

Some people may experience some light bruising, but this and any other side effects will usually resolve within a few days. You may need to take over the counter painkillers to control any pain-related side effects.
