Fat Dissolving Injections
What are Fat Dissolving Injections?
Fat dissolving injections are an excellent treatment for those looking to treat areas on the face and body for stubborn, localised fat.
Fat dissolving injections, also known as injection lipolysis, is a highly effective, scientifically proven fat-dissolving injection that works by liquidating fat cells and destroying them permanently. The broken-down cells/liquefied fat is then naturally eliminated by the body through the lymphatic system.While the fat-dissolving process begins immediately, best results typically appear after 6-8 weeks.
Aqualyx is a revolutionary non-surgical fat removal treatment that uses a plant-based compound to break down and eliminate stubborn fat cells. It contains a solution primarily composed of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring bile acid found in the human body.
Areas commonly treated with Aqualyx® Fat Dissolving Injections include:
- the “saddle bags” (outer thighs)
- thighs
- underarms
- stomach and lower abdomen
- chin and jowls
- knees
- pseudo-gynaecomastia (the male condition more commonly known as “man-boobs”)
- Fat dissolving injections are considered a body contouring and sculpting treatment rather than a weight loss solution.
-
Results are typically visible after a few weeks, as the body gradually eliminates the broken-down fat cells.
While the fat reduction is often permanent, maintaining a stable weight is crucial to prevent fat from returning -
Side effects can include swelling, redness, and tenderness in the treated area, which are usually temporary.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
The time it takes for each treatment session depends on the size of the area being treated. A session usually lasts 30 minutes. Most people need around 2 to 8 treatments, with each treatment spaced 4 weeks apart. Sometimes, you might start seeing good results after just 1 or 2 sessions.
For example, if we're targeting fat pockets under the neck and chin, you might need 1 to 3 treatments, and each treatment could involve 2 to 3 injections. But if we're dealing with fat pockets on the hips and thighs, you might need up to 8 treatment sessions.
