Product Information

AQUALYX® was developed by the renowned aesthetic surgeon Prof. Pasquale Motolese in 2002 and has been used for many years in different countries of the European Community and abroad. The manufacturer Marllor states sales of two million vials in two years. No major side effects have been reported and the treatment is well-tolerated and successful. Aqualyx® works by dissolving the fat cells. The body then expels the released fatty acids naturally through the lymphatic system. Aqualyx® is a non-surgical solution to reduce and permanently remove stubborn localized pockets of fat. Aqualyx® is one of the best alternative non-surgical solution available to clients who do not wish to go under the knife (surgical Liposuction).

Important Information

Aqualyx® is mixed with Lidocaine and is injected directly into the subcutaneous fat tissue using a needle / cannula. Within the following weeks the treated fat cells are gradually dissolved.

Aqualyx® is not intended for weight loss, it is used to improve and contour the body. Patient must maintain a stable / healthy weight, eat healthy and continue workout as usual.
