Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections to Remove Stubborn Fat

Concerned about stubborn areas of fat on your body that just won’t budge – even if you stick to a clean diet and exercise? It’s common, especially as we age. But thankfully, there’s a treatment that exists, which can help: Aqualyx.

Aqualyx is an injectable compound made up of deoxycholic acids, which works to destroy stubborn areas of fat in the body (and even in the face). As a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment, it uses injections to dissolve localised fat pockets, helping contour specific areas and refine your shape over time.

Fat-dissolving treatment at a glance

  • Non-surgical fat-dissolving injectable treatment with minimal downtime
  • Disrupts fat cell membranes so your body can remove them naturally
  • Removes stubborn fat and contours areas, including the back, hips, knees, thighs, stomach, and chin
  • Results often take several weeks and more than one session may be recommended

 

Aqualyx is a clinically recognised

Aqualyx fat-dissolving injections reduce small pockets of fat that haven’t responded to diet or exercise. Containing a solution based on deoxycholic acid (a molecule that breaks down fat cell membranes), Aqualyx triggers a process where damaged fat cells are gradually removed by your body’s natural metabolic process.

However, Aqualyx should not be relied on as a weight-loss solution alone. It’s recommended in cases where patients need particular areas of their body refined, even when stubborn fat persists despite commitment to exercise and lifestyle changes.

Who this treatment is for

Our practitioners will likely recommend Aqualyx for patients who:

  • Have small to moderate pockets of stubborn fat that won’t go away
  • Want a non-surgical treatment option with a quick recovery
  • Are close to their ideal body weight but want refinement in specific areas
  • Are bothered by a double chin, ‘bra bulge’, tummy rolls, or thigh fullness
  • Want to enhance body shape with a natural-looking result

Common stubborn areas we can target:

  • Lower tummy “pooch” after pregnancy
  • Fat that sits just below the belly button and won’t shift
  • Post-C-section shelf (where fat sits above the scar line)
  • Love handles that linger despite weight loss
  • double chin that doesn’t respond to diet
  • Soft fullness along the jawline

See our before-and-after gallery.

Aqualyx Fat Dissolving treatment process

As with all our treatments at Aventis, your treatment journey will first start with a consultation with Dr Imogen to hear your goals and assess your suitability. This initial consultation is free. Dr Imogen will always take before-and-after photos so you can see and track your progress.

  1. We will clean the area or areas being treated and apply a local anaesthetic.
  2. Dr Imogen will gently and precisely apply the solution to the chosen area (chin, jowls, upper arms and stomach/hips).
  3. Each session usually lasts 20-30 minutes, depending on the size of the area.
  4. The treatment consists of 3-5 sessions, with each session 6 weeks apart.

After treatment, you can typically resume daily activities straight away. Minor swelling, redness, or tenderness are common and usually resolve within a few days.

I've been seeing Imogen for several years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. The whole team at Aventis is always so warm and welcoming, and the clinic itself is beautiful. Over the years I've had Botox, Aqualyx, moved entirely to medical-grade skincare, and laser treatments. The difference in my skin has been incredible. Growing up in Cayman and spending years working on the water, I wasn't always the best at looking after my skin, so having Imogen's guidance has been invaluable. My goal has never been to stop ageing, but to age gracefully, and I'm genuinely so happy with the results so far. Highly recommend Imogen and the Aventis team.

Imogen and her team at Aventis are truly second to none. They are the only people I trust with my Botox, fillers, and facial treatments. They have mastered the art of enhancing natural beauty while always making you feel comfortable and cared for. The office is immaculate yet warm and welcoming—it truly feels like home. I simply love them all and cannot recommend them highly enough!

My Botox and veneer appointment was amazing, so quick, pain free, and the results are more than I could expect. Dr Jonathan Lavington was incredibly professional and my cosmetic dentistry was better than I could expect. Dr Imogen Bexfield work is impeccable and I would highly recommend.

Dr. Johnny is a highly skilled and meticulous professional. He performed my first root canal in under 45 minutes, ensuring I was completely comfortable and pain-free throughout the entire process. Exceptional care from start to finish—I highly recommend this dental practice for any procedure.

I had a very positive experience with Aventis. Their offices are pristine, modern and incredibly calming, which immediately helps to make a dental visit feel less daunting. Our child required a little extra care and patience as he is non-speaking and has significant sensory sensitivities, so finding a dental team that could understand and accommodate his needs was particularly important to us. Dr. Childers and Victoria were wonderful — patient, understanding, gentle and reassuring throughout the entire process. They took the time to work with him at his pace, communicate clearly with us and make what could otherwise have been a very stressful experience feel much more manageable. We genuinely felt that our child was in capable and caring hands. I would highly recommend Dr. Childers and the team at Aventis, particularly to families whose children may need a little more patience, understanding or individualized care during a dental visit.
