Targeted body contouring without surgery Have you got those stubborn little pockets of fullness that just don’t seem to shift, no matter how much you exercise or watch what you eat? You may have heard of Aqualyx, sometimes referred to as Liquid Lipo or injectable fat dissolving. Aqualyx is a specialised injectable medical device used in non-surgical body contouring for selected areas of localised subcutaneous fat. At TruYou Aesthetics in Northland, we offer Aqualyx for clients interested in addressing specific areas of fullness and exploring non-surgical body contouring options.

What is Aqualyx (Liquid Lipo)?
Aqualyx is an injectable solution used in a procedure known as intralipotherapy. It is designed to act on localised fat tissue in the selected treatment area. Sometimes called Liquid Lipo because it offers a non-surgical approach to targeted contouring, Aqualyx is not a weight-loss treatment. It is intended for selected pockets of localised fat rather than overall weight reduction.

What areas can be treated with Aqualyx?
Aqualyx may be considered for a range of localised areas, depending on individual anatomy and suitability.

These can include:

FACE & CHIN
- Double chin
- Under-chin fullness
- Jawline fullness
- Jowl area

UPPER BODY
- Upper arms (often called bingo wings)
- Bra-line fullness
- Back rolls
- Upper and lower back fat
- Chest fullness in appropriately assessed clients

ABDOMEN & WAIST
- Lower tummy
- Upper abdomen
- Stubborn abdominal pockets
- Love handles
- Flanks and waistline
- Hip area
- Legs and lower body
- Inner thighs
- Outer thighs
- Saddlebags
- Inner knee area
- Localised fullness around the knees

Not every area is suitable for every person. A thorough individual assessment is essential to establish whether Aqualyx is an appropriate option.

How many treatments will I need?
The number of sessions varies depending on the area, the amount of localised fat and individual response. A course of treatments may be recommended, with sessions generally spaced several weeks apart. Your treatment plan will be discussed during your consultation. Temporary swelling, tenderness, bruising, redness and firmness can occur following treatment and should be considered when planning your sessions.

Is Aqualyx right for me?
Aqualyx is designed for targeted cosmetic contouring, not general weight loss. Suitability depends on factors including the area being considered, skin quality, the type of tissue present and your individual circumstances. At TruYou, we believe in honest advice and realistic expectations. Sometimes a treatment isn’t the right answer, and we’d rather tell you that than recommend something simply because we offer it.
