Kybella

Kybella is an injectable treatment designed to reduce fat and double chins. It’s a non-invasive procedure and a great alternative to surgery or liposuction. The Kybella formula is a deoxycholic acid that targets and destroys fat cell walls. It is the only FDA-approved formula that permanently destroys fat cells and gives you long-term results.

Kybella is a cosmetic treatment designed to give you slower, long-lasting effects. It’s not an overnight fix, but you will enjoy the results for many years. Most clients will begin seeing results after a few weeks, and additional injections can be done two or three months after your initial session. Maximum results are noticed after six months and can last for years.

Depending on your goals, you can book multiple sessions for Kybella injections. You may just want one treatment session, but you can get up to six. Before your appointment, you’ll discuss what’s best and how to achieve your desired results.

Frequently Asked Questions

This fat reduction treatment has many benefits worth considering if you are looking to improve your appearance. This type of cosmetic injection can give you a more defined jawline, which can make you look younger and more attractive. Since this is a minimally invasive treatment, there is no need for liposuction surgery or general anesthesia. This also means that there is less downtime and fewer risks associated with KYBELLA compared to traditional surgical procedures. KYBELLA offers long-lasting results because once the fat cells have been destroyed, they cannot come back. This means that even as you age or gain weight, your double chin will not return to its previous state.

Kybella works by using deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, to break down and absorb fat cells. When Kybella is injected into the submental area, it targets and destroys fat cells, resulting in a slimmer and more defined jawline. Over time, the body naturally metabolizes the destroyed fat cells, leading to a noticeable reduction in submental fat. The result is a more sculpted and youthful appearance to the neck and jawline.

The administering process begins with a consultation with our certified KYBELLA experts who will assess if you are an ideal candidate for the treatment. During your appointment, they will numb your neck area using ice or topical anesthesia before administering KYBELLA injections. Most patients require multiple treatments at four to six-week intervals to achieve their desired results. After each injection, patients may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort at the injection site. These side effects usually subside within a few days after treatment. Kybella treatments typically take about 15-20 minutes to complete. The exact duration of the treatment may vary depending on the size of the treatment area and the number of injections needed to achieve the desired results.

Kybella is a safe and FDA-approved treatment, but like any medical procedure, it carries the risk of potential side effects. The most common ones include swelling, redness, and pain at the injection site. Patients may also experience numbness or hardness in the treated area for a few weeks after the procedure. Other possible side effects of KYBELLA include trouble swallowing, nerve injury that causes facial muscle weakness or uneven smile, and an allergic reaction that manifests as itching, rash, hives, or difficulty breathing. These side effects are rare and typically resolve on their own within a few days or weeks after treatment.

Kybella is an ideal option for people who are struggling with submental fullness or double chins. Generally, good candidates for Kybella are individuals who have a moderate amount of excess fat beneath their chin. Kybella can be an effective treatment for both men and women who are in overall good health and have realistic expectations about the results they can achieve. People who have loose skin around their neck area may not be ideal candidates for this treatment as it only targets fat cells. It’s important to note that Kybella should not be used on individuals who have infections in the treatment area or those with bleeding disorders. Pregnant women and nursing mothers should also avoid using Kybella until after breastfeeding has ended.
