Fat Dissolving Injections

At SkinSense Private GP Chelmsford, Fat Dissolving Injections safely target stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise. This minimally invasive treatment helps contour and sculpt the body for a smoother, refined appearance. Experience expert care that enhances your confidence and restores youthful definition.

Procedure

Aqualyx is an injectable solution which is capable of dissolving stubborn areas of subcutaneous fat resistant to diet and exercise. It contains a substance called desoxychol-acid which is found in bile salts in the human body, where it is responsible for digestion of fat. The Aqualyx molecule attaches itself to the membrane of fat cells in the area of injection, and starts to dissolve the membrane surrounding the cell. This causes the fat cell to become unstable and to break open. The fatty acids contained within the cell are then eliminated by macrophages (part of the body’s immune system). The fat is ultimately eliminated from the body by the liver.

In principle Aqualyx can be injected over the entire body except the area around the eyes. Some areas that are particularly suitable for treatment are shown in the picture.

There are some other interesting uses for Aqualyx:

  • For those people who are regular gym goers but cannot shed the last bit of fat to define a six pack, Aqualyx can be used very successfully to give that definition.
  • For people with lipomas, Aqualyx can be injected into these.
  • For people with a buffalo hump, Aqualyx can be used to reduce the size of this.
  • People with uneven lumps of fat after other treatments such as Vaser or liposuction can have smoothness restored with Aqualyx.
