Aqualyx

Revolutionize Your Skin with Profhilo Hydration and Firmness Treatment

Aqualyx is a revolutionary, non-surgical treatment designed to reduce stubborn fat deposits in various areas of the body. This fat-dissolving injectable solution offers a safe and effective alternative to more invasive procedures like liposuction. It targets localized fat deposits, helping you achieve a slimmer, more contoured appearance.

How Does Aqualyx Work?

Aqualyx contains a compound called deoxycholic acid, which is a naturally occurring bile acid in the body that aids in the breakdown of dietary fat. When injected into the targeted area, Aqualyx disrupts the fat cell membranes, causing the fat to dissolve. The body’s lymphatic system then naturally processes and removes the dissolved fat from the body.

Treatment Areas

Aqualyx can be used to treat a variety of areas where stubborn fat tends to accumulate, including:

– Chin and jawline
– Upper arms
– Abdomen and flanks
– Thighs (inner and outer)
– Hips
– Knees
– Back of neck (buffalo hump)

FAQ

Does the Treatment Hurt?

A topical anaesthetic is applied prior to treatment, as well as the combining the product with local anaesthetic, to minimise discomfort.

How Long Will It Take to See Results?
Patients typically see visible results after a few weeks, as the body gradually removes the dissolved fat. Optimal results are usually achieved after two to four sessions, spaced about four to six weeks apart. The fat cells treated with Aqualyx do not regenerate, making the results long-lasting, provided you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.
Who Is an Ideal Candidate?
Aqualyx is ideal for individuals who are close to their ideal weight but struggle with localised fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. It is not a weight loss solution or suitable for treating obesity. A thorough consultation is necessary to ensure that Aqualyx is the right choice for your needs and goals.
What Are the Side Effects?
Aqualyx is a well-tolerated treatment with a low risk of side effects. Common side effects include swelling, redness, itching, warmth and bruising at the injection site, which usually resolve within a few days. Serious complications are rare when the procedure is performed by a qualified professional.
