Are you curious about Acqualyx® fat-dissolving injections? If you want to tone up areas that resist diet and exercise, this treatment might be just what you need. In this blog, we’ll answer the most frequently asked questions to help you understand what makes Acqualyx® an effective fat-reduction option.

What is Aqualyx® Fat Dissolving Injection?

Acqualyx® is an injectable, fat-dissolving solution specially formulated to target areas of stubborn fat deposits. Unlike surgical options, Acqualyx® allows for a more natural and non-invasive fat removal process.

How does the treatment work? 

Once injected into the specific area where you’d like to reduce fat, it liquifies fat cells, breaking them down so that your body’s lymphatic system can naturally flush them out. 

This process is for the targeted fat cells, making it an ideal solution for areas like:

• Outer thighs 
• Underarms
• Stomach and lower abdomen
• Double chin and jowls
• Knees

How long does the treatment take to work?

Acqualyx® begins working immediately, but because it relies on natural processes, the results develop gradually. Visible fat reduction usually starts to show within three to six weeks, depending on individual factors. 

How many treatments are needed?

The number of sessions needed varies depending on the area and individual goals, but most clients need between two to eight sessions, spaced three to four weeks apart. Because Acqualyx® removes fat cells, the results are long-lasting. You should follow a healthy lifestyle (diet and exercise) to maintain a stable weight after treatment.

What is the downtime?

Since Acqualyx® is a non-surgical treatment, the downtime is minimal. You may experience some swelling, redness, and tenderness around the treated area, which generally subsides within three to six days. You should also expect bruising in the treated area, which will take between one and two weeks to go – this varies for everyone. 

Does Aqualyx® hurt?

Discomfort with Acqualyx® is generally mild. Many clients describe a slight tingling sensation, but the pain is minimal, making it a popular choice for those seeking a non-invasive fat reduction.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Acqualyx® Fat Dissolving Injections?

Acqualyx® is ideal for those who lead a healthy lifestyle but have stubborn fat pockets that resist diet and exercise. This treatment is especially popular with women and can be personalised to treat specific areas of concern.

However, Acqualyx® is not recommended if you are:

• Pregnant or breastfeeding
• Diagnosed with lipodystrophy
• Experiencing autoimmune conditions or other specific health issues
