What is Aqualux
Aqualyx is a fat-dissolving treatment that targets fat removal from certain targeted areas. Excess fat in stubborn areas can be an issue for many men and women, despite exercise and a good diet. These fatty areas sometimes just don’t want to change, but the likes of liposuction may seem too extreme a solution. That’s when Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections can help target these stubborn areas.
How does Aqualux work?
It works by attaching to fatty deposits, breaking them down over time. The fat is then naturally dissolved and flushed out by the body. Results are effective, quick, and minimally invasive.
What is the Aqualux method?
It works by using a solution, injected into the localised deposits of fatty tissue, which liquefies the fat cell and destroys it permanently. The lipids (contents of the fat cells) are then released and eliminated naturally through the bodies natural lymphatic system.
How quickly does it work?
Results are very fast, but it’s recommended to have between two and five sessions to see a significant effect. Younger patients are more likely to see results after a longer period of time

What happens when Aqualux wears off?
Fat reduction is permanent, for the fat cells that are destroyed, they don’t come back. Of course, if more weight is gained, then the fatty appearance will return, but in proportion with the new shape gained. This is why we always advise a good diet and healthy lifestyle alongside Aqualux Treatment
