Benefits of Aqualyx
Safe and effctive
Aqualyx is a safe, natural alternative to traditional liposuction. It effectively dissolves fat in unwanted areas of the face and body. The after-effects are fairly minor and there is very little downtime associated with this treatment compared to liposuction.
Body contouring
Aqualyx Treatment effectively produces tightening and contouring effects on the skin in the treated area. With liposuction, there is usually saggy skin in the area that was treated. This problem is easily overcome with Aqualyx.
Lasting result
If you’re looking for a long-term solution for unwanted fatty deposits on the face and body, then this treatment could be just what you’re looking for. The Aqualyx Treatment is known to produce results that last. This means that you can banish fat for good in the areas you’re concerned about.
Works immediately
Once injected, Aqualyx starts working immediately in the treated area. Over time, the unwanted fat is removed by the lymphatic system and the liver. This is the immediate solution when a non-invasive alternative to liposuction is desirable.
Areas are treatable with Aqualyx
How does Aqualyx work?
Aqualyx is a water-based solution that is injected into the fatty tissue, surrounds the cells and destroys them. The remains of the fat cells are then excreted by the lymphatic system safely as waste. Aqualyx permanently removes the treated fat cells, the result is also permanent. However, future weight gain may mean that you can put fat on in the treated area, but it will be much less compared to if you hadn’t undergone the treatment. The fat-dissolving injections take about 4 weeks to work from the injection. The results are not instant, so give yourself the time to see your results. You will start to see results after about 8 weeks with clear flattening, firming, and fat-dissolving effects
On the day of the procedure
You will be asked to sign a consent form before the procedure. The practitioner will measure and mark the area of treatment and then inject Aqualyx using a fine needle. The process will take about thirty minutes. It is usually not painful but can be uncomfortable.
Aftercare
You will experience some swelling immediately and this will gradually diminish in the following days. It is recommended to avoid exposure to temperature extremes, sunbathing, saunas and steam rooms for a week post-treatment. In the first week, it’s a good idea to avoid very strenuous exercise while your body is processing. But overall, Aqualyx recovery is straightforward, with many patients heading back to work after their treatment.
Side effects
Side effects of Aqualyx include swelling, bruising and pain in the treated area for a short while. With Aqualyx, there is a small risk of getting an infection as with many procedures. This can be avoided by keeping the area clean and dry.
