About KYBELLA
KYBELLA is an innovative non-surgical treatment designed to target and eliminate stubborn fat below the chin, also known as submental fullness or a "double chin." Developed by leading experts, KYBELLA offers a safe and effective solution for patients seeking a more contoured and defined jawline.
How Does KYBELLA Work?
KYBELLA contains a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, KYBELLA effectively destroys fat cells, allowing them to be naturally eliminated by the body over time.
The Treatment Process
During your KYBELLA treatment, a licensed healthcare professional will administer a series of injections into the targeted area below your chin. The number of injections required will depend on your specific needs and desired outcome. The treatment itself is relatively quick and can usually be completed within 15 to 20 minutes.
Benefits of KYBELLA
KYBELLA provides numerous benefits for those seeking to improve their appearance and regain confidence. Some key advantages include:
- Non-surgical and non-invasive: KYBELLA offers a non-surgical alternative to more invasive chin fat reduction procedures. There are no incisions or scars involved.
- Long-lasting results: Once the targeted fat cells are destroyed, they cannot store or accumulate fat again. This means that the results achieved with KYBELLA are typically long-lasting.
- Improved self-esteem: Submental fullness can affect one's self-image and confidence. With KYBELLA, patients can achieve a more defined jawline, leading to improved self-esteem and overall satisfaction.
- Minimally uncomfortable: While every individual's pain tolerance may vary, KYBELLA treatments are generally well-tolerated. Topical anesthetics can be used to further minimize discomfort during the injections.
- FDA-approved and scientifically proven: KYBELLA has been rigorously tested in clinical trials and gained FDA approval. Its safety and efficacy in reducing submental fat have been well-documented.
Am I a Candidate for KYBELLA?
KYBELLA is suitable for adults who are bothered by the appearance of moderate to severe submental fullness. However, it is essential to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine if KYBELLA is the right treatment option for you. They will evaluate your condition and medical history to ensure you meet the necessary criteria for the procedure.
Post-Treatment Care
After undergoing a KYBELLA treatment, it is normal to experience some swelling, tenderness, or bruising in the treated area. These side effects are temporary and should subside on their own within a few days to a week. It is crucial to follow your healthcare provider's post-treatment instructions to ensure optimal results and minimize any potential risks.
