You pay close attention to a wholesome lifestyle by exercising regularly and eating healthy, yet that one pad of fat that troubles you most will not disappear? The cause for this lies within our genetics and the special structure of our fat cells in certain areas. The human body naturally stores fat in order to supply energy in times of restraint. Fat cells located in the subcutaneous fat tissue are difficult to diminish, as only their contents and overall volume can be altered, but not the fat cells themselves. These particular fat cells cannot be reduced and continuously serve as a reliable depot for the body to store fat.

Aqualyx contains deoxycholic acid, a secondary bile acid. With the assistance of bacteria, our body is able to produce this acid itself in the liver in order to aid the digestion of fat. The active substance locks onto the fat cell walls and starts to operate, resulting in the cell wall becoming unstable and releasing the fatty acid that is stored within. Cell residue is removed by the body's defences and the non-attached fatty acids are metabolised and converted into energy.

The number of treatments varies according to the desired degree of amendments, the dimensions of the fat depot and the individual reactions of the fat tissue. On average you will have to expect around 3-5 appointments, with 3-4 weeks intervals, until you can actually perceive the results.
