Aqualyx Aftercare

Aqualyx aftercare is important to reduce swelling, avoid complications, and help the fat-dissolving process work properly. Here’s the typical guidance clinics give after treatment.

First 24–48 hours

• Use cold compresses for 15–20 minutes at a time to reduce swelling and discomfort.

• Do not touch or massage the area for at least 6–12 hours. 

• Avoid makeup or skincare on the area for 12–24 hours. 

• Avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen) for about 48 hours.

• Stay hydrated to help your body process the broken-down fat.

First week

• Expect swelling, tenderness, and bruising.

  • Swelling often peaks in the first 48–72 hours and can last 3–7 days or sometimes up to 2 weeks depending on the area.

• Avoid intense exercise for about 5–7 days. 

• Avoid heat exposure (saunas, hot baths, sunbeds, steam rooms).

• Compression garments may be recommended for body areas to reduce swelling.

  
  

After the first week

• Some clinics recommend gentle massage for 1–3 weeks to help distribute the product and lymphatic drainage.

• Maintain a healthy, low-fat diet and good hydration while the body metabolises the dissolved fat.

• Final results usually start showing after 4–8 weeks, and treatments are often spaced a few weeks apart.
