Do you ever feel frustrated or depressed when you look in the mirror or at pictures of yourself and see more than one chin? Have you tried various gadgets that were advertised as fixes for your double chin, only to be disappointed that they didn’t work? If you answered yes to either of these questions, then this news is great news for you! There are safe and non-surgical ways to help you lessen the look of your double chin! Read on!
Meet Kybella
Kybella is an FDA approved injectable treatment that is designed to reduce the number of fat cells under your chin. Kybella contains a substance called deoxycholic acid, which is a natural compound that eats away fat cells but leaves the other tissue unharmed. Any fat cells that are destroyed will be flushed out of the body through the body’s own natural processes. Since this treatment is non-invasive, there is no downtime involved and patients can return to their normal daily routines the day of their treatment.
A Kybella treatment takes roughly 30 minutes to perform. When you arrive for your appointment, the area will be cleansed in preparation for the treatment. The Kybella is then carefully injected and you may experience a slight warming sensation during this process. Kybella begins working right away, but results are usually seen in 3 to 4 weeks after your session. Some patients will need more than one treatment to achieve their desired results as individual results vary.
Meet CoolSculpting
Another amazing non-surgical way to get rid of a double chin is with CoolSculpting. CoolSculpting is an FDA approved treatment that freezes and crystallizes fat cells which are then flushed away over time by the body’s own metabolic processes. With Coolsculpting, a typical treatment lasts about one hour per treatment area. During this treatment, a technician places a gel pad over the area to be treated to act as a barrier between your body and the CoolSculpting device. Next, the device is cooled to its appropriate temperature and placed on the gel pad. The fat underneath the pad freezes, but not any of the surrounding organs, nerves or tissue since they freeze at a much lower temperature than the fat cells. Patients can return to their daily routines immediately after the CoolSculpting session.
Results will begin to show in 4-12 weeks after the first treatment. The average client needs one or two treatments to achieve their ideal results. That is a relatively short amount of time considering there is no recovery time as there would be with invasive surgical methods. Once fat cells are removed the treatment areas will look 20-25% smaller and those fat cells will not come back.
