Fat Dissolving Injections (Aqualyx / Deso)
Deoxycholic acid is the active ingredient in Aqualyx, Kybella, Bellkyra & Deso. When deoxycholic acid comes into contact with adipose (fat) cells, it causes the cell wall to breakdown, allowing water to be drawn into the cell until it bursts. By a mechanism of secondary inflammation, the body then removes the resulting debris, leaving behind all of the non-adipose cells, which are completely untouched by this process.
On this course we offer 90 minutes of online learning in Aqualyx and Deso, then a 90 minutes face-to-face assessment and one-to-one practical session in London.

Aqualyx Course
I thoroughly enjoyed doing this course. Michael, the trainer was extremely helpful and instilled a great deal of confidence in me. The video work and theory was excellent as was the practical. I would highly recommend Visage Aesthetics.
Aqualyx/Deso course! 14/01/2020
Dr Aicken thank you so much for today’s Deso/Aqualyx course. Perfectly structured with online content and also good hands on practical training. I would highly recommend this course to anyone wishing to further expand their aesthetic career! Thank you again!
Fat Dissolving Course - Highly recommended
First of all, I want to say a big thank you to Dr Aicken and his team at Visage. I have been searching for a place to complete some injectable training for some time, and have looked at many training centres, but none have matched the experience, knowledge base and support that Visage offer.
The online content is in-depth, the slides & narration were clear and concise, and the videos displayed the different methods in which the procedure could be performed. It gave me good confidence after watching these in preparation for the practical day at their clinic.
On the day of the practical, Dr Aicken’s assistant was very welcoming. I was introduced to the patient having the fat dissolving treatment, and we covered consent information with some good recommendations, especially the online system they use (Flourish).
Dr Aicken questioned my knowledge throughout the practical on what I had learnt online and made me feel very comfortable while performing the procedure with plenty of guidance, where needed. I felt I could ask any questions I needed to, without pressure, and I felt confident with what I was doing by the end of the session. It was then followed by a one to one to ask any further questions, and to receive my certificate of competency.
Overall I am very pleased with my training, with the offer of continued support and assistance with products too, I couldn’t ask for anything more.
Definitely, worth the travel from Rotherham, I can confidently say I will be completing more training with Visage in the future.
Thank you.
