Fat Dissolving Injections - Can You Really ‘Melt Away’ A Double Chin?

Here at Elegant Beauty Clinic we believe that all bodies are beautiful, and we encourage you to be confident in your own skin! However there is nothing more gorgeous than a healthy body and feeling great and, for many of us, abiding by a healthy lifestyle, diet and exercise is the best route to achieving these goals. Whilst we will always suggest looking at your style of living first, we know that sometimes losing weight and meeting your body objectives is not that easy– and there are plenty of factors that might be preventing your progress.

You can read more about why you may not be losing weight in our blog post here.

We’re sure that you’ll all agree that one of the most frustrating places to try and shift excess fat is the pesky ‘double chin’. No matter how hard you try, that stubborn little pouch that loves to make itself seen– particularly in unexpected photos (why is it so hard to get a cute, candid pic for the ‘gram?). Well rest assured, it’s something that many of us struggle with and there are effective solutions at hand.

What are fat dissolving injections?

Aqualyx fat dissolving injections are a simple, safe and non-surgical alternative to liposuction. Used specifically to tackle areas of fat that are reluctant to shift even with consistent exercise and good nutrition, fat dissolving injections are a great option to help overcome weight loss barriers.

Aqualyx injections provide healthy and long-lasting results, which can be made permanent when combined with maintaining healthy lifestyle choices. Aqualyx should not be seen as a weight loss treatment, but instead as a form of ‘body contouring’.

What is Aqualyx?

Aqualyx is a complex micro-gelatinous injectable solution which, when injected into the treatment area, works to dissolve the membranes of fat cells. The fat cells are broken down into fatty acids, which are then eliminated by the liver and immune system.

This fat dissolving treatment is clinically safe, medically approved and can only be administered by a fully qualified healthcare professional. Our clinician, Shikha, is highly experienced and skilled in carrying out this treatment – and will always provide a full healthcare consultation to ensure that Aqualyx is the right choice for you.

The treatment uses a painless injection technique which, with the additional benefit of no surgery required and minimal downtime (although some swelling may occur), makes this a fully non-invasive and comfortable body shaping method. The results are highly effective, and will usually be seen best 6 weeks after the final treatment (the number of treatments will vary depending on the area being targeted).

How can an injection get rid of a double chin?

Our revolutionary Aqualyx treatment is suitable for use in many areas all over the body. We recommend targeting the tough pockets of fat that are difficult to rid of through traditional methods such as around the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, waist, upper arms, jowls and ‘double chin’.

The jowls and chin are one of the smaller areas that may be treated with fat dissolving injections, meaning results will be seen quicker and through just 1-3 sessions. One of the most common areas treated with Aqualyx, eliminating the stubborn fat underneath the chin and jaw will emphasize the contours of your face and create a slimmer silhouette.
