Aqualyx in the Face

For small areas of fat, such as the jowls and chin, just two to three treatments of Aqualyx can dramatically reduce fat deposits to give a more youthful and defined facial contour. Dermal Filler can also lift the jowls which are due to sagging skin.

Aqualyx in the Body

Aqualyx can work very well for stubborn pockets of fat on the body that are resistant to diet and exercise. It is not a substitute for diet and exercise nor is it a weight loss programme. An ideal client could be a man or woman who has a “muffin top” despite having a slim frame. Or it could be a young mother, who has been left with an area of fat on her abdomen that refuses to budge. Other common areas for treatment are the knees, hips, back, waist, buttocks and “bingo wings”. For larger areas like abdomen, thighs or buttocks you may need up to 5 treatments to see noticeable results.

Aqualyx With Other Treatments

Aqualyx works well as a stand-alone treatment and also in combination with other treatments. If your jowls consist of both fat deposits and sagging skin, Aqualyx can be used in conjunction with a thread lift or with Dermal Filler to create and even more attractive result. In some cases, when the fat has gone from the area, the skin may be left looking a little loose. To remedy this, a treatment with the Plasma Pen will tighten the skin. In some cases, a final treatment of an injection with a skin tightening product may be used.

Why does Kybella cost so much?

There is some factors to why Kybella is so expensive. It is a new treatment, it is also the only non-invasive injectable approved for submental fat treatment. The company who developed Kybella is the only patent holder and until other companies can develop competing alternatives Kybella will continue to be expensive.

Kybella is ~$600 a vial depending on location and this may require 1-2 vials per treatment. Treatments are individualized per patient and may also require 1-4 visits of the 1-2 vials to obtain maximal results. However, this innovative FDA approved in-office injectable is a great way to permanently get rid of fat in an area without having to do surgery. This may be a great alternative for patients who do not want to have downtime, may have a small area of concern they want to treat, have bad reactions to anesthesia, and/or populations who do not prefer anesthesia.Liposuction pricing would also depend on the area being treated, but this procedure requires patients to have to be cleared for surgery, go under anesthesia, have downtime from work, and can a hassle for some patients. After consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon, you will be able to see price differences and individualized options. Ultimately it is your decision which would work better for your lifestyle, time, money, and overall goals.Best of luck!
