Aqualyx 10 vials x 8ml
Aqualyx helps in the treatment of reducing localised adiposity.
Aqualyx is a compound solution from the deoxycholate family that has been physically modified and, by creating a slow release sugar-based system, the biological half-life is reduced which results in minimal side effects.
Whoever presents with “localized adiposity”, or accumulations of subcutaneous adipose tissue which are unresponsive to normal metabolic actions (low-calories diet and physical activity), is an ideal candidate for the treatment with ultrasound and Aqualyx.
For example, women can successfully treat unsightly fat pads present in anatomical areas such as hips, “coulette de cheval”, of the inner knee and thigh. Instead, males can easily reduce abdominal fat and double chin. Aqualyx is not indicated in obese or significant overweight patients.
What is Aqualyx® used for?
It used for Aqualysis or Aquaplasty treatment to reduce localised, stubborn fat deposits in areas such as the chin, stomach, outer and inner thighs, hips, knees etc.
How quickly will I see results?
A reduction in fat deposits can usually be seen after just one treatment, however between three and eight sessions are required to see the optimal effect. The speed at which results are seen will vary depending on the stability of the cell membranes; younger patients are more likely to results after a longer period. Results may vary from physician to physician and case by age.
Who is the treatment suitable for?
It is suitable for patients who do not want the more invasive treatments, who do not have large amounts of fat located.
Is the treatment suitable for overweight patients as a weight loss method?
No, Aqualyx is aimed at reducing stubborn pockets of fat.
What are the Aqualyx side effects?
Minimal side effects have been reported globally since its introduction, but patients can expect a little skin irritation, bruising and oedema, which will ease after a few days.
For precautions measures, must not be used in:
- Subjects that present active or systematic acute pathologies in the area to be treated.
- Patients with diseases affecting organs or organ systems in an acute phase or with evident functional deficits.
- Patients with severe autoimmune diseases.
- Immunosuppressed patients.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
The treatment should only be performed by a doctor or surgeon, and specialist training is given to every doctor before they offer Aqualysis™.
Typically, two treatments are required for each area being treated; patients report good tolerance of the treatment.
The treatment will be repeated between two and eight times depending on the number of small pockets of fat tissue to be reduced.
The treatment is repeated every three to four weeks.
After each treatment patients can expect some swelling, redness and skin irritation and tenderness in the area treated, which will subside after four to six days.
