Eliminate your Double Chin without surgery.
Home » Kybella Double Chin Treatment
Battling a double chin? Fullness beneath the chin is attributed to a number of factors including weight, diet and genetics. With Kybella you can now get rid of your double chin in a quick, in-office procedure that requires no downtime.
Kybella contains deoxycholic acid which is a synthetic version of a naturally occurring molecule in the body that normally helps in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When Kybella is injected into submental fat beneath the chin, it destroys the fat cells. These cells are then no longer able to store fat and hence the end result is a noticeable reduction in the appearance of a double chin and improved profile. Kybella is best suited for those with mild to moderate amounts of fat beneath the chin.
Just as Coolsculpting precisely targets unwanted body fat, Kybella only targets fat that is directly under the chin. The procedure only takes minutes and requires no downtime. It is best suited for firm, younger skin as it will not tighten the skin but only removes volume. Typically 2-3 sessions are required.
Safely eliminates submental fullness without a neck-lift, liposuction or laser procedure. There are no sutures or downtime required.
Since fat cells destroyed by Kybella are eliminated forever and can no longer accumulate fat, results are permanent.
Kybella is injected into target tissue in just 20 minutes, requires only a few sessions and is well tolerated by our patients.
Advanced technique adds contour and definition, creating a firmer and slimmer jaw line for a more youthful appearance.
Men and women who are over the age of 18 and in good health will likely benefit from Kybella if they want a safe and effective way to reduce their submental fat.
Before and during the injection we ice the under-chin are to numb the skin. Immediately after the injection the area can feel warm, like the feeling of a sunburn. This is a temporary side effect which settles over the next hour.
Expect swelling around the treatment area. Swelling means that the body is destroying fat cells. We recommend icing the skin and resting at home after treatment rather than going back to work. The swelling can last from five to seven days.
The body has to break down and metabolize the ‘melted’ fat, which takes time. It takes up to 6-8 weeks to see results.
Kybella is administered by injections into the fat under the chin through a series of treatments spaced 6-8 weeks apart. The treatment plan is tailored to meet the individual needs of each patient. The total number of treatments can vary based on a myriad of factors, patients may need 2 to 4 treatments to achieve their desired results.
I inherited my double chin from my family. I was so frustrated because it felt out of my control. Even when I lost weight the double chin remained. Kybella was right for me. I am a busy professional and wanted quick, easy treatments. I did experience swelling for a couple of days after each treatment but my beard covered it up. So, no big deal. I finally have a defined jaw line!
