Aqualyx In a Nutshell
Aqualyx is a trusted injectable treatment for dissolving unwanted areas of fat. The injections contain two active ingredients – phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholate. Once injected, the molecules in these actives break down the fat cells.
Aqualyx is extremely targeted; it targets only the fat cells, destroying them permanently. They are then excreted via the body’s lymphatic system.
Common treatment sites with Aqualyx include:
- Outer Thighs.
- Thighs.
- Underarms.
- Lower Abdomen & Stomach.
- Jowls & Chin.
- Double Chin (Celluform is used for smaller areas such as the chin area).

FAQs
Do Fat-Dissolving Injections Cause Permanent Fat Loss?
Yes.
Once the fat cells have been ejected via the lymphatic system, the result is permanent. However, fat-dissolving injections can’t prevent future weight gain.
If you wish to remain at your post-treatment weight, you will need to observe good nutritional habits and exercise regularly.
Who Is Suitable For Fat Dissolving Injections?
The ideal candidate for treatment is committed to a healthy lifestyle and within 30% (or less) of their goal weight.
Genetics can play a part in stubborn fat deposits being resistant to exercise and diet. In these cases, fat-dissolving injections can provide a safe and viable solution to target and safely remove these deposits.
During your consultation, your practitioner will inform you of your suitability and an estimation of how many treatments are needed to reach your goal weight.
Are there any side effects?
You can get back to your normal activities right away, though we recommend refraining from strenuous exercise for a week after treatment.
You may feel some minor tenderness around the area for a few days.
