When people glance in the mirror, they often loathe their double chins. Kybella, fortunately, is the solution. It is an FDA-approved injection therapy for the elimination of chin fat. Living with an ill-defined jawline and extra fat behind the chin is a common problem with no obvious solution. Unlike many other types of fat, you won’t be able to lose the bulge with a single fitness regimen or diet.
While increasing weight can give your chin a cushion, many people who live a healthy lifestyle nonetheless have chin issues. You can acquire submental fullness even if you eat well, exercise often, and live an active lifestyle. Genetics and the biological aging process may also contribute to a fluffy profile.
The great news is that you won’t have to live with your chin problems eternally. This groundbreaking surgery is the first and most effective way to remove unsightly facial fat beneath the chin.
The active ingredient in this therapy is deoxycholic acid, a substance produced naturally by the body. This substance enhances the body’s metabolism and fat absorption when administered. Deoxycholic acid binds to fat cells under the chin, breaking them down and supporting the body in their elimination.
What Sets Kybella Apart from Other Fat-Reducing Treatments?
When it comes to non-surgical fat reduction options, Kybella is a very effective treatment that is less invasive than procedures like liposuction. While laser treatments and other methods that remove fat cells beneath the chin (CoolSculpting) are also effective, they are more expensive, require a more extended recovery period, and may cause more discomfort than Kybella.
While CoolSculpting removes fat cells permanently, it does not provide the skin tightening benefits that Kybella does. Liposuction is another common fat-targeting operation; however, it is invasive and can leave a few scars around the entrance.
Liposuction is a treatment in which fat is physically removed from the body by using a suction cannula inserted through a surgical incision. You will see a quick and apparent improvement following liposuction, but you will also have to go through a more prolonged healing phase with more demanding postoperative care and downtime.
Who is a Good Candidate for Kybella?
Kybella is a safe injection for the vast majority of people. If you match the following conditions, you are an excellent candidate:
- You are at least eighteen years old.
- You’re in fantastic shape.
- You have at least a large quantity of fat on your chin.
- You don’t want to go through invasive surgery.
- Diet and exercise haven’t yielded the results you wanted.
Pregnant women and anyone with a history of keloids should avoid using Kybella.
Aside from these concerns, this injection can help most individuals with submental fat.
What Happen in a Kybella Treatment?
When you come to Injectables Clinics for Kybella treatments, master injectors will use an Allergan-supplied marking grid to mark each injection site. Numbing medicine is sometimes given to make the process more comfortable. Injections can be made anywhere between 20 and 50 places behind the chin.
To successfully target all of the fat cells in the area, many injections are required throughout the session. The number of treatments needed to attain your objectives varies from person to person. Three sessions are usually enough, although some people may only need one, while others may need up to six. The treatments are spaced six weeks apart to allow the skin to heal properly in between.
What Happens Immediately After a Kybella Treatment?
Kybella, like any other injection or filler, is a minimally invasive procedure. Following your session, you will almost definitely be able to return to work right away. There are no apparent physical repercussions other than a slight swelling, redness, and the chance of bruising. Kybella may cause minor soreness after injection, although this is easily treated with over-the-counter pain relievers. After a week or two, the bruising, redness, and soreness at the injection site should go away.
Is Kybella only used to get rid of submental fat?
We’ve used Kybella to improve the appearance of stomach fat and fat on the arm where the bra usually rests, in addition to stubborn fat below the chin.
How Long Does Kybella Work?
While Kybella is a permanent fat-reduction method, it’s important to note that it’s not a miracle injection. Although the fat in the treated areas will not return, any residual fat cells may increase if you do not maintain a healthy diet and exercise program. Kybella has a long-lasting effect on your body when used in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle.
When Will You See the Results?
The maximum effects are usually visible approximately six weeks after the initial treatment, so you may need to be patient to get the most outstanding results. It’s not uncommon, however, to experience only a minor improvement after just one session. Most patients report satisfactory outcomes six weeks after the second or third therapy session.
How Do I Begin Using Kybella?
The first step is to schedule a consultation to learn more about how this treatment might help you look and feel better. Your doctor will measure your submental fullness to determine the best course of action. We can help you get the younger, more sculpted jawline you’ve always wanted.
Are there any side effects to Kybella?
The FDA approved Kybella in 2015 because it is a very safe treatment. The most prevalent side effect is possible injection site redness. It’s also possible for the injection site to harden. Another common adverse effect is temporary numbness, which contributes to the comfort of repeated Kybella injections. Swelling is more severe in some people than in others.
It’s relatively uncommon for swelling to last for ten days or more. A strategically placed blanket or face mask will suffice if you want to hide the swelling until it recovers. Skin laxity is another issue that might emerge after therapy.
Excess skin can remain in situ after fat is removed from a particular area. Fortunately, Kybella causes inflammation, which tightens the skin and relieves the drooping symptoms of other fat-removal procedures.
Thanks to Kybella, millions of people have regained their confidence and a leaner, more youthful appearance. In only a few minutes, you may be on your way to creating a unique and intriguing profile. If you’re looking for a reason to keep your chin up, contact Injector Belle.
