Despite exercise and a good diet, excess fat in localised areas can be an issue for many men and women, These localised fatty deposits are sometimes hard to remove. Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Treatment is an alternative to liposuction which may seem too invasive and extreme a treatment.
Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections is a fat dissolving treatment that targets fat removal from certain areas. Lipolysis is particularly successful when used to treat submental fat in the area beneath the chin. This will improve and refine the patient’s jawline and profile.
Lipolysis consists of an aqueous compound solution, with slow-release sugar that minimises side effects. It contains deoxycholic acid which has been used in various fields of human medicine since its discovery. Present also in the human body, deoxycholic acid is used in the emulsification of fats for the absorption in the intestine.
The time taken for a treatment session will depend upon the size of the area being treated. Treatment can take between 30- 45 minutes and you will typically require 2–3 treatments, 4 weeks apart.
The results of Aqualyx are permanent under the condition of maintaining a constant weight measurement (i.e. assuming you do not gain weight). Once the freed fatty acids have been processed through the body’s lymphatic system, they don’t reappear. However, the procedure is only permanent if you follow a healthy diet and exercise frequently following treatment. If you regain weight, it is likely that the fat pockets will reappear. If a healthy lifestyle is maintained, the results should be permanent. It can take up to 3-4 weeks after the first treatment before you see results a course of is recommended
Local anaesthetic and topical numbing cream.
You can resume normal activity immediately following the treatment.
People treated with Aqualyx will typically experience minimal side effects when compared to more invasive procedures, such as liposuction. Side effects include some redness, swelling and tenderness in the treated area. Some people may experience some light bruising, but this and any other side effects will usually resolve within a few days. You may need to take over the counter painkillers to control any pain-related side effects.
As long as you are generally healthy and don’t have any skin diseases or infections in the area treated, there are few medical reasons why you should not undergo this treatment. However, Aqualyx is not recommended for women who are pregnant or breast feeding; patients with auto-immune disease, diabetics and patients who have had severe anaphylactic reactions and allergies. It is also not recommended for those people who have been diagnosed with lipodystrophy or any pathological conditions.

Immediately after treatment, there may be slight redness, swelling, tenderness and an itching sensation in the treated area. The results directly after the treatment should not be seen as the final result. Avoid touching the treatment area 6 hours after the treatment.

Patient Testimonials
"I am extremely happy with the treatment, and with the standard of care I have received. There is no doubt as to whether this treatment is highly effective. I have had several cosmetic surgeries (although not on my face) but can say in comparing the results of the Spring Thread procedure with other less invasive treatments, the results are more in keeping with the surgical procedures I have had." Spring Thread Patient Review, Cosmetech at Kingsbridge Patient

"Can’t praise Kingsbridge Private Hospital enough!! I had an operation a couple of weeks ago and I was so well looked after. My surgeon Mr Rashid was fantastic, and the nursing staff was also fabulous. I found they communicated very well to each other, so everyone knew when my meds were due, my allergies etc. They were so kind, so lovely, constantly checked to see how I was i.e. my temperature etc. The food was fabulous and the catering staff very helpful having had an operation were very happy to accommodate ...

"I was in your facility yesterday for a day procedure (operation on my left arm). I wanted to write and express how impressed I was with the facilities and more importantly the staff on the Ward.
Everyone was excellent, and I mean excellent, i don't normally write congratulatory e-mails so this is high praise in my view. The Senior nurse was excellent, as was the Theatre nurse and the anaesthetist. Even the assistants that helped with catering and other duties. All came together to form a great impression of the establishment." Jason Carpal Tunnel Surgery, Kingsbridge Patient
