Body Contouring
Non-surgical fat reduction
At Nurse Meicha Cosmetic Clinic in Norwich, we offer advanced body contouring treatments designed to help you acheive a slimmer, more sculpted appearance without surgery. If you struggle with stubborn fat pockets that won't shift despite a healthy diet and excercide, our Aqualyx fat dissolving injections provide an effective, non-invasive solution.
​
Body contouring refers to treatments that reshape and refine the body by reducing unwanted fat deposits. Aqualyx is a fat dissolving injectable treatment that works by breaking down fat cells, allowing your body to naturally eliminate them. This non-surgical alternative to liposuction is ideal for refining specific areas and enhancing your natural shape.
​
Aqualyx contains a specially formulated solution that targets and disolves turbborn fat cells. Once injected into the treatment area, the solution liquifies the fat, which is then naturally processed and removed by the bodies lymphatic system. Over time this results in a more contoured and sculpted appearance.
​
Aqualyx is ideal for contouring and refinging stubborn fat deposits in various areas, including:
​
Chin & Jawline (double chin)
Abdomen (lower stomach)
Flanks (love handles)
Thighs (inner & outer)
Upper arms
Back Rolls
​
Aqualyx is best suited for stubborn fat pockets, resistant to diet and exercide. It is not a weight loss treatment, but rather a body scuplting solution for refining specific areas. During your consultation, we will asses your suitability and recommend the best approach to your desired results.
FAQs
How does Aqualyx work?
Aqualyx is a compound of a substance called deoxycholic acid, which essentially liquidises the fat which you then pass out through the kidneys naturally.
How many sessions will I need?
It can take anywhere between 2-8 treatments.
We recommend 2-4 procedures, depending on the areas being treated and how you progress with the treatment.
Is the treatment painful?
The treatment can be uncomfortable for some patients.
However, we do apply a numbing cream before treatment to make it as comfortable as possible.
What is the downtime?
The treated area will be swollen immediately after treatment.
This swelling can appear extreme to begin with, but will slowly subside within a few days.
The area treated can be uncomfortable for a few days and can feel slightly numb or sensitive and lumpy/hard for up to 4 weeks.
When will I start to see results?
You will see the results after about 4-5 weeks.
You will start to see results once the swelling has settled down.
