Each Aqualyx injection contains a gel-based aqueous solution, which is directly administered into subcutaneous fat through a fine needle. This targeted approach ensures that only the fat cells are affected, preserving surrounding tissues.

Aqualyx Technology
Aqualyx was developed through rigorous scientific research and innovation and is centred on a technique known as “Aqualysis” or “Aquaplasty”. This treatment utilises a water-based solution containing a form of deoxycholic acid, a bile acid naturally produced by the body to aid the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into fatty tissue, Aqualyx disrupts the fat cells’ membranes, leading to the release of lipid content. This process allows the liquefied fat to be naturally eliminated by the lymphatic system, which promotes fat reduction at the targeted sites.

Ideal candidates are those who maintain a healthy lifestyle and are near their target weight but have localised fat deposits that they want to eliminate.
Patients may experience mild discomfort during the injection(s), which can be managed with local anaesthesia. Post-treatment, some swelling, bruising, or redness might occur.
The number of sessions varies depending on the treated area and individual response. Typically, 2-4 sessions are required, spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
The results can be long-lasting, provided that the patient maintains a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle. The treated fat cells are permanently destroyed and removed from the body.
Recovery is relatively quick. Patients can return to normal activities shortly after treatment, although strenuous activities should be avoided for a few days. Guidance on aftercare will be provided by the healthcare provider.
