Kybella
What is Kybella?
Kybella is a non-surgical treatment designed to reduce submental fullness, commonly known as a double chin. At A New You Skin & Body Clinic, we offer expert Kybella treatments to help you achieve a more defined and contoured jawline. This comprehensive guide covers everything you need to know about Kybella, including how it works, its benefits, the procedure, and aftercare.
Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that utilizes a synthetic version of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring property in the body that aids in breaking down and absorbing dietary fat. This treatment is specifically formulated to target and eliminate fat cells beneath the chin, effectively reducing the appearance of a double chin.
How Does Kybella Work?
Kybella operates by employing deoxycholic acid to break down and eliminate fat cells in the submental region. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella causes the fat cells to be destroyed, after which they are metabolized and removed by the body’s natural processes. Once these fat cells are eliminated, they are no longer able to store or accumulate fat. This results in a reduction in the appearance of a double chin.
Kybella was developed by Allergan and received FDA approval in 2015 for the treatment of moderate to severe submental fat. Since its introduction, Kybella has become a popular non-surgical option for individuals looking to improve their chin and jawline contours.
Benefits of Kybella
Non-Surgical and Minimally Invasive: Kybella offers a non-surgical alternative to liposuction for reducing submental fat. A Kybella treatment consists of a series of injections with nominal downtime, allowing patients to resume their daily activities quickly.
Permanent Results: Once the fat cells are destroyed in the targeted area, they are permanently eliminated from the body.
Quick and Convenient: Each Kybella treatment session typically takes 15 to 20 minutes, making it a convenient option for individuals with busy schedules.
