Aqualyx and Kybella are non-surgical fat-dissolving treatments designed to target stubborn fat that won’t budge with diet and exercise.

About Aqualyx & Kybella
Aqualyx and Kybella are injectable treatments that target and dissolve stubborn fat deposits in specific areas. Kybella (deoxycholic acid) is FDA-approved for reducing submental fat (double chin), while Aqualyx is used for contouring various body areas, including the stomach, arms, and thighs.
These treatments offer a great alternative to liposuction for those who want to slim down without surgery. The results appear gradually as your body processes and removes the treated fat cells over several weeks.
