Effective Fat Dissolving Treatments at London Body Centre
Excess fat in stubborn areas can be an issue for many men and women, despite exercise and a good diet. These fatty areas sometimes just do not want to budge, but the likes of liposuction may seem too extreme a solution. That is when Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections can help!
An alternative to liposuction is Aqualyx Lipotherapy: a fat removal therapy which reduces stubborn fat deposits in notoriously tricky areas such as the stomach, outer and inner thighs, and the chin area. It works by attaching to fatty deposits, breaking them down over time. The fat is then naturally dissolved and flushed out by the body. Results are effective, quick, and minimally invasive.
A solution is injected into the localised deposits of tissue into areas which liquefies the fat cell and destroys it permanently. The lipids (contents of the fat cells) are then released and eliminated naturally through the lymphatic system.
Aqualyx is made up from several different plant-based compounds that have been refined in a lab environment. Aqualyx dissolves the membranes of fat cells in the treated area. The fat cells become unstable and break open. The fatty acids contained within the cell are then eliminated by macrophages (part of the body’s immune system) and the liver.
AQUALYX typically requires a course of two to four treatments with four to six-week intervals between each session. Although the procedure does not hurt, you should expect some swelling which can take up to three weeks to subside. Although the fat doesn’t come back, AQUALYX should only be used as a supplement to a healthy lifestyle and is only intended for dealing with small pockets of fat rather than for providing a complete weight loss solution.
Unlike liposuction, AQUALYX normally leads to a degree of skin contraction too, so you are less likely to end up with loose skin around the areas which have been treated.
What we offer at London Body Centre
These fat dissolving injections cause cell lysis. Interestingly, it is non-selective, meaning it lyses all cells. However, it has a greater affinity for fatty tissue than protein tissue, so fat tissue is more susceptible to break down. It prompts a mild inflammation in the skin afterwards, which helps clear the cellular debris.
There are few ways to solve the problem of small pockets of fat. The presence of fat is regarded as a sign of ageing in the lower face. Even with weight loss and exercise, some people cannot achieve the jawline they desire due to hereditary reasons, and with age, this fat compartment becomes fuller. Plain liposuction in the area will remove the fat, but does not give significant tightening to the tissues, and there can be a concern of seeing the platysma muscle bands through the skin following treatment. Fat dissolving injections are an easy, non-invasive way to decrease this fat, while tightening the skin. This treatment does not change facial movement in any way.
Aqualyx® is used to ‘dissolve’ stubborn pockets of fat which remain resistant to diet or exercise.
The Aqualyx® treatment is suitable for tackling areas around the face and the body. For example, areas that may be treated which include:
Abdomen
Hips
Thighs
Knees
Buttocks
Upper arm
Double chin
Jawline and many more
