WHAT IS AQUALYX FAT DISSOLVING INJECTIONS ?
Aqualyx is a non-surgical fat dissolving injection treatment. The procedure uses a solution of deoxycholic acid to safely and effectively eliminate small, stubborn pockets of fat which resist diet and exercise. A similar ingredient is found in products available in the USA such as Kybella and Belkyra.
IS THIS A WEIGHT LOSS TREATMENT?
The Aquagold fine touch treatment can be had as often as every 4 weeks or as and when you want a skin nourishment boost! Micro-infusion facial treatments are perfectly safe and Rupesh can advise you of the recommended treatment length for your skin type.
HOW DOES AQUALYX FAT DISSOLVING INJECTIONS WORK?
The solution is injected into the fat through a special AQUALYXTM sharp cannula using a unique trained technique. Usually 2 injection spots are required per region with the amount of product used differing according to the area of fat being treated. Lidocaine can be added to the solution before injecting to improve patient comfort levels; the treatment is relatively painless with a warm sensation, itching, slight burning, slight oedema and reddening appearance for 1-3 days within the treated area. The number of treatments required can vary dependent on the area/amount being treated with as little as 1 or possibly 2 treatments required up to 8; repeat treatments occur every 4 weeks.
HOW MANY AQUALYX TREATMENTS DO I NEED?
The number of Aqualyx treatments is dependent on the personal response of every individual. In general, 2-3 treatments are normal.

The elastic needles allow small areas to be tackled effectively such as double chin or jowls
WHAT IS THE ACTUAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KYBELLA & AQUALYX ?
Kybella & Aqualyx both work by the same mechanism, as both are forms of the same active ingredient. Deoxycolic Acid is a molecule that occurs naturally in the body and helps us to breakdown and absorb fat in our diet. Technically, Aqualyx is a modified compound of cholanic acid (which is ever so slightly different from cholanoic acid a.k.a. deoxycholic acid. When injected into the fat cell, it causes it to breakdown and be absorbed.
Kybella is approved for use in the US and not UK. The approval studies targeted the fat under the chin, so that is the only currently approved use.
WHAT ARE THE AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS OF AQUALYX TREATMENT?
- Keep the treated area free from cosmetics for 12 hours post procedure.
- Avoid heat and sun exposure.
- No Swimming, Jacuzzi, Sauna.
- Abstain from strenuous exercise for 5-7days.
- Wearing a support garment.
- Maintain a healthy diet to ensure that energy released from the fatty acids does not subsequently reform fatty deposits elsewhere.
IS KYBELLA & AQUALYX DELIVERED DIFFERENTLY ?
Kybella and Aqualyx and they appear to have a similar mechanism of action and indications for submental fat. However Kybella is administered by a grid like pattern with many small injections while aqualyx is done through a single injection using cannula while moving the needle around ( fanning technique ) depositing the medication
