Fat-dissolving injections have been around for decades but the fat-busting non-invasive treatments available now like Lemon Bottle and Aqualyx can give similar results to traditional liposuction without the downtime.
Lemon Bottle and Aqualyx are both body contouring treatments, offering an effective way to eliminate fatty tissue that is exercise-resistant and hard to shift even with a healthy lifestyle. Many of us have isolated stubborn areas of fatty deposits in various parts of the body, like double chins or love handles. The inner thighs and upper arms are also prone to storing unwanted fat. Fat-dissolving injections are an ideal way to reduce fat in these areas.
Are Aqualyx and Lemon Bottle the same?
Both Aqualyx and Lemon Bottle are highly effective fat dissolvers which break down fat cells and then exploit the body’s lymphatic system to remove the fat cells from the body.
Aqualyx is a tried and tested product that has been used with great results worldwide for over a decade. Lemon bottle is the new kid on the block and has caused an internet sensation with the speed of its results and the minimal amount of downtime required after treatment.
Let’s explore the similarities and subtle differences between these popular fat-dissolving products.
Formulations
Aqualyx is a gel formulation in which the main active ingredient is deoxycholic acid.
Deoxycholic acid is produced naturally. Its role in the human body is to break down dietary fat in the stomach which is then absorbed and flushed away by the lymphatic system.
The deoxycholic acid in Aqualyx is synthetic with an enhanced ability to break open fat cells by destroying the cell membrane. The fatty acids contained in the cells are liquified and removed from the tissues by the body’s immune system.
Lemon Bottle is a liquid formulation that contains a range of natural active ingredients and different plant-based compounds in a high-concentration solution. The quality of the natural ingredients means that lemon bottle is less likely to cause an inflammatory reaction.
Lemon bottle acts on the fat cells in the same way as Aqualyx. However its unique formula contains riboflavin for enhanced fat cell response. This means that Lemon Bottle boosts fat cell metabolism and shifts fat fast.
Number of sessions required
The buzz around Lemon Bottle is that it has an immediate positive impact after just one or two treatments. However, everybody responds differently and we find that most clients need a few sessions to see the best results.
Aqualyx may take several sessions to have a noticeable effect.
Other benefits
Not only do Lemon Bottle and Aqualyx reduce fat cells but they both stimulate the tissues to produce more collagen and elastin.
These are the proteins that keep skin strong and smooth and so high levels will make the skin firmer and reduce the appearance of cellulite on the body.
Downtime
Lemon Bottle might cause redness or subtle bruising around the injection site and the treated area but this disappears after a few days. This minimal downtime is another reason for Lemon Bottle’s popularity as treatment causes less disruption to clients’ busy lives.
The deoxycholic acid in Aqualyx can cause some swelling, redness or bruising which sometimes lasts up to five days.
Are Aqualyx and Lemon Bottle good for weight loss?
If you are interested in body contouring and treating small stubborn pockets of fat, then Aqualyx or Lemon Bottle may be for you.
Fat-dissolving treatments work best on people of ideal body weight who need help with stubborn fat that won’t shift.
