Aqualyx fat injection is a non-surgical treatment that can help you achieve your desired body shape. It is a safe and effective way to get rid of unwanted fat without going under the knife. This article will provide a complete guide to Aqualyx fat injection, including how it works and what to expect during your treatment process.
What is Aqualyx fat injection?
Aqualyx is an injectable treatment that can help to dissolve fat cells. It consists of a compound called deoxycholic acid, which is a natural substance found in the body. When injected into the skin, Aqualyx targets the fat cells in the treatment area and breaks them down, allowing your body to eliminate them.
How does Aqualyx fat injection work?
During the Aqualyx fat injection treatment, a trained practitioner will inject the solution into the area where you want to reduce fat. The deoxycholic acid in Aqualyx works by breaking down the walls of fat cells, causing them to release their contents. This process is known as lipolysis. The body’s lymphatic system then naturally eliminates the broken-down fat cells, resulting in a reduction in the appearance of unwanted fat.
What are the benefits of Aqualyx fat injection?
One of the main benefits of Aqualyx fat injection is that it is a non-surgical treatment. There is no need for anaesthesia, incisions, or sutures, reducing the risk of complications and downtime. Aqualyx is also a targeted treatment that only targets the fat cells in the treatment area, leaving the surrounding tissue unaffected.
Another benefit of Aqualyx fat injection is that it provides long-lasting results. Once the fat cells are broken down and eliminated by the body, they do not come back. However, it is essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle to prevent the accumulation of new fat cells.
What areas can be treated with Aqualyx fat injection?
Aqualyx fat injection can be used to treat a range of areas on the body, including the chin, thighs, hips, buttocks, and stomach. It is also commonly used to treat areas where stubborn fat deposits have formed, such as love handles and muffin tops.
Who is a good candidate for Aqualyx fat injection?
Aqualyx fat injection is a suitable treatment for individuals with a small to moderate amount of unwanted fat in a specific area that does not respond to diet and exercise. It is important to note that Aqualyx fat injection is not a weight loss treatment and should not be used as a substitute for a healthy lifestyle.
What to expect during an Aqualyx fat injection treatment
Before your Aqualyx fat injection treatment, you will have a consultation with a trained practitioner who will assess your suitability for the treatment and discuss your goals and expectations. During the treatment, the practitioner will mark the area to be treated and then use a fine needle to inject the Aqualyx solution into the fat cells.
The treatment typically takes between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the treatment area. You may experience some mild discomfort during the treatment, but this is usually well-tolerated.
What are the side effects of Aqualyx fat injection?
After the treatment, you may experience some mild side effects, including swelling, redness, and bruising in the treatment area. These side effects are usually temporary and will subside within a few days. You may also experience some tenderness and numbness in the treated area, but this should also resolve within a few days.
What is the recovery process after Aqualyx fat injection?
Aqualyx fat injection is a non-invasive treatment, and there is typically no downtime associated with the treatment. You should be able to return to your daily activities immediately after the treatment. However, we recommend you avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting for at least 24 hours after the treatment.
How many treatments are needed?
The number of treatments required will depend on the size of the treatment area and the amount of fat to be reduced. Most people require between two to six treatments, with a gap of four to six weeks between each session. We will advise you on the number of treatments needed during your initial consultation.
Is Aqualyx fat injection safe?
Yes! Aqualyx fat injection is a safe and effective treatment. However, as with any medical treatment, there are associated risks with Aqualyx fat injection. These will be discussed with you during your initial consultation.
Conclusion
Aqualyx fat injection is a safe and effective non-surgical treatment for reducing unwanted fat in specific areas of the body. The treatment is minimally invasive, and there is typically no downtime associated with the procedure. Aqualyx fat injection can provide long-lasting results when combined with a healthy lifestyle, and it is suitable for individuals who have small to moderate amounts of unwanted fat that do not respond to diet and exercise.
