Aqualyx is a mixture of deoxycholic acid that breaks down the membrane of fat cells, causing them to liquefy and permanently destroy them. The fatty acids that are released are removed with the lymph in the urine.
The application of the material is injectable. For each area, an entry point is selected and with a special very thin and flexible needle, Aqualyx is injected evenly into the subcutaneous fat. It is not a material used for mesotherapy.
The area of the body that shows localized fat accumulation is measured and the amount of material needed is calculated.
Up to 4 vials of Aqualyx can be used in each session, divided evenly by the doctor.
If treatment is needed in additional areas, a week should elapse before the next session in other areas.
Usually 3-4 sessions are required per area to achieve the desired result.
Sessions are held every 3 weeks and the result is complete one month after the last treatment.
There is local swelling, perhaps some bruising and tenderness or slight pain.
This sensitivity subsides in 4-5 days and if there are bruises, gradually.
The result is visible after a month.
Chemical lipolysis with Aqualyx is an approved method of treating localized fat. However, the treatment must be accompanied by a proper diet low in fat and carbohydrates.
Abundant water intake helps remove damaged fat cells and eliminate them in the urine.
Velashape treatment or lymphatic massage is allowed after application to accelerate the result.
