Even with a healthy lifestyle, some pockets of fat can be resistant to change. Whether it’s a soft jawline, double chin, love handles, or inner thighs, these areas can impact your overall silhouette and self-confidence. Aqualyx is a clinically developed injectable treatment that breaks down fat cells in specific areas, allowing your body to eliminate them naturally over time.
This makes Aqualyx an ideal option for non-surgical body sculpting, offering permanent fat reduction in treated areas with a course of sessions tailored to your needs.
What Is Aqualyx?
Aqualyx is a biocompatible injectable solution containing deoxycholic acid, a compound that’s naturally produced in the body to help break down dietary fat. When injected into a targeted area, Aqualyx causes fat cells to rupture, releasing their contents to be flushed out through the lymphatic system.
Over several weeks, the area becomes slimmer, firmer, and more defined — without the need for anaesthesia, incisions, or liposuction.
What Areas Can Aqualyx Treat?
Aqualyx is effective on small, localised pockets of fat in both the face and body. Common treatment areas include:
- Double chin / jawline
- Jowls
- Upper arms (bingo wings)
- Bra bulge or back fat
- Abdomen and flanks (love handles)
- Hips
- Thighs (inner and outer)
- Knees
This treatment is not for overall weight loss, but rather for sculpting and refining areas where fat lingers despite diet and exercise.
Can Aqualyx Be Combined With Other Treatments?
Yes — Aqualyx works particularly well as part of a body contouring plan, alongside treatments such as:
- Skin tightening (e.g. radiofrequency, HIFU)
- Lymphatic massage, to support drainage
- Muscle toning technologies (such as EMSculpt)
- Facial dermal fillers or chin sculpting, for definition after fat reduction
Your practitioner will advise the best treatment combination based on your body and goals.
Will Aqualyx Work for Me?
If you’re looking for a targeted, non-surgical fat reduction treatment that works gradually and naturally, Aqualyx may be a great option. It’s particularly effective for clients wanting to fine-tune their shape without committing to more invasive options.
