Aqualyx is a non-surgical (minimally invasive) treatment designed to target and reduce stubborn fat in areas resistant to regular exercise and a balanced diet.
This procedure involves injecting a specialised fat loss solution into localised fat deposits, permanently reducing fat cells in the treated areas. It is important to note that Aqualyx is intended for body contouring rather than weight loss.
In addition to Aqualyx, our clinic offers DesoBody and DesoFace treatments specifically designed for fat reduction in the body and facial areas, respectively.
Aqualyx injections work through a process known as lipolysis. Lipolysis is when the active ingredients in the Aqualyx solution (derived from the deoxycholate family of acids) break down fat cells in specific areas of the body. Once injected, the fat-dissolving solution immediately starts to liquefy the fat. It is then metabolised and eliminated by your body’s lymphatic system.
Aqualyx can be used to treat various areas of the body, including the abdomen, love handles, thighs, back, underarms, and chin and jawline.
Your trained practitioner will conduct a thorough assessment, and photos will be taken to document the results throughout your Aqualyx treatment process. This ensures that every stage of your treatment is carefully monitored. We will evaluate whether you are a suitable candidate for Aqualyx and review your current medical history to confirm that the treatment is appropriate for you before proceeding.
The targeted area is first cleaned during the procedure, and a local anaesthetic may be applied to ensure your comfort. Next, a fine needle carefully injects the Aqualyx solution into the fatty tissue. Most patients can expect to experience a degree of uneasiness and itchiness around the treated areas. However, this is usually short-lived.
It is normal for swelling to occur. It may increase during the first 3 hours after treatment and persist for 3 – 7 days. Some redness may also develop in the treated area. These reactions are typical and part of the body’s natural response to the treatment. If you have any concerns about the intensity or duration of these effects, please consult your practitioner for further guidance and support.
The fat reduction continues over several weeks as your body metabolises the dissolved fat. You may notice improvements within a few weeks, with optimal results visible after a few months. The exact timeline can vary depending on individual factors and the areas treated. Multiple sessions may be necessary to achieve your desired results, depending on your goals. Our team will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

We highly recommend that you avoid any form of heat exposure during your recovery period. This includes saunas, steam rooms, gyms, sunbeds, and natural sunbathing. You should avoid the aforementioned for at least three days following the treatment. The treated area will be somewhat swollen for a minimum of four to seven days. To ensure the best possible healing, it is important to refrain from any activity that could raise your body temperature.
Drinking plenty of water throughout your fat injection journey is never harmful. Staying well-hydrated is essential. It helps your lymphatic system efficiently flush out toxins and dead cells from your body. We recommend that you try to drink about 2 litres of water a day.
The fat cells treated by Aqualyx are permanently destroyed. However, Aqualyx does not inhibit your body’s ability to produce new fat cells over time. You need to eat a balanced and healthy diet to maintain the effects of your fat-dissolving treatment. Keeping your weight within a healthy range is essential, too. Doing so will help prevent the accumulation of new fat in the treated areas (thus supporting the long-term effectiveness of your treatment).
Most patients report experiencing minimal discomfort during the procedure. To ensure a comfortable experience, a local anaesthetic or numbing cream is typically applied to the treatment area beforehand. This approach helps minimise any potential discomfort and makes the procedure as smooth as possible. Our goal is to provide you with a pleasant experience and allow you to undergo the treatment with as little discomfort as possible.
Aqualyx treatments are available at our clinic, conveniently located in Covent Garden, London.

The number of sessions required varies depending on individual goals and the treatment area. Many patients achieve satisfactory results with just 1 – 3 sessions; however, some may need additional treatments to achieve optimal results.
