With the escalating demand for non-invasive cosmetic procedures, injections intended to ‘‘dissolve fat’’ have attracted interest from physicians and the general public. Many names have emerged in the surge in Mesotherapy and the use of Phostphatidylchloline for the removal of localised fat had been coined many terms; Lipodissolve, Mesosculpt, Thinject, Mesoplasty.
How does fat dissolving mesotherapy works?
Fat cells are spherical cells with its fatty content contained in a membrane – just like a water balloon. The lipo-dissolve injection is based on the natural polyene phosphatidylcholine, which is mixed with a certain formulation and directly injected to subcutaneous fat deposits. Lipid is the main content of the cell membrane and when it touches the lipo-dissolve ingredients, it bursts – like popping a water balloon. The injection will damage the cell membrane of adipocytes, thus rendering the necrosis of adipocytes, followed by automatic emulsification and lysis. Then they will be excreted into the lymph circulation and metabolised outside the human body by the liver.
The main product used is Aqualyx:
If you are of an ideal body weight but have difficulty with stubborn pockets of fat, then Aqualyx could be for you (see pinch test module).

It is a CE approved product for use in the UK which means it meets health & safety standards required.
Since 2009 this product has been used in over 2 million treatments in over 49 countries. It has a strong safety record supported by sound medical science.
AQUALYX™ is an injectable treatment of 12alfa-dihydroxy-5beta-24-oico cholanic acid sodium salts, which is a modified compound of cholanic acid. It is not a simple solution of deoxycholate. It is being marketed for ‘Aqualysis’ or ‘Aquaplasty’ treatment as a means of body contouring. This is a form of injection lipolysis, lipotherapy or intralipotherapy.

AQUALYX was developed to treat localised pockets of fat underneath the surface of the skin.
It can be used to treat fat pockets on the back, chin, stomach, underneath the buttocks, hips, thighs, and knees. It can also be used to treat pseudo-gynaecomastia, the development of fatty tissue around the nipple, resulting in a “breast”-like appearance in men, (due to weight gain rather than the growth of actual breast tissue as seen in genuine male gynaecomastia).
Clinical data shows that the application of AQUALYX is effective and safe, leading to an increasingly contoured appearance.
AQUALYX is an aqueous compound solution, with slow-release sugar that reduces the biological half-life of the solution, minimising side effects, there for being SAFE!
The ingredients are a polymer from 3, 6-Anhydro-L-Galactose and D-Galactose (0.5%), buffer systems (4.2%), sodium salt of (3α, 5α, 12α) – 3, 12-dihydroxy-5-cholan-24-acid (7.5%), water for injection purposes (87%) and sodium chloride (0.8%).
The buffer system within AQUALYX ensures that the 12alfa-dihydroxy-5beta-24oico cholanic acid sodium salt is delivered to the target area.
Deoxycholic acid has been used in various fields of human medicine since its discovery. Present also in the human body, deoxycholic acid is used in the emulsification of fats for the absorption in the intestine. The mixed cocktail containing phosphatidylcholine combined with its emulsifier, deoxycholate, are effective in removing small collections of adipose tissue. Cell lysis, resulting from the detergent action of deoxycholate.
Phosphatidylcholine – There are 8 well known studies regarding Phosphatidylcholine injections for localised weight loss or fat reduction. All these studies show positive results. Some outcomes ranged from vast majority of patients had reduction in fat thickness, Improvement occurred in all subjects.
Here is what you need to know about localised weight loss from phosphatidylcholine injections…….
Phosphatidylcholine is the primary fat molecule the outer cell wall of every cell in your body is made of. Injectable phosphatidylcholine is made in Europe under the name Lipostabil and many other names. Physicians usually make their own mix by combining phosphatidylcholine with deoxycholate, a bile salt. This localised weight loss technique was first presented in 1988 at the Congress of Mesotherapy in Paris. Initially it was used mainly to treat vascular disorders where it was used to dissolve fatty deposits in the veins, then they started to use for fat pads under the eyes, most often with exceptionally good results.
When you get injected with phosphatidylcholine for localised weight loss there is an immediate burning sensation that subsides in about 30 minutes. There may be some oedema or mild swelling that can last several weeks. The typical dose is 0.2cc to 0.4cc. It is possible to experience some nausea or stomach pain, some clients may experience a heavy feeling or itchiness of the area.
