The chin is one of the hardest places on your body to tone and tighten. Because of this, it is fairly easy to develop a double chin, even if you are not actually overweight. It can be frustrating and can rob you of your self-confidence when you feel as though you need to hide your chin when talking to friends and co-workers. Thankfully, science has given us an amazing solution called Kybella. Kybella is an FDA approved injectable treatment that is designed to reduce the number of fat cells under your chin and give your face and jawline a sleeker look.
How Does Kybella Work?
The active ingredient in Kybella is a substance called deoxycholic acid. This substance occurs naturally in the body and assists in the breakdown and absorption of fat. When Kybella is injected into the fat beneath the chin, it destroys the fat cells. Once these fat cells are destroyed, they can no longer store or accumulate fat. Once these fat cells are destroyed, they are then flushed out of the body through the body’s own metabolic processes. Once this all occurs, there is a noticeable reduction in the fullness under the chin.
What Is a Kybella Treatment Like?
A Kybella treatment takes roughly 30 minutes to perform. At the beginning of your session, the area will be cleansed in preparation for the treatment. A topical numbing cream will also be applied to minimize any pain from the actual injection. The Kybella is then carefully injected and patients may experience a slight warming sensation during this process. Usually, 2 to 3 vials are used per Kybella treatment. Since this treatment is non-invasive, there is no downtime involved and patients can return to their normal daily routines immediately after the injections are completed.
Will I Need More Than One Treatment?
Kybella begins working right away, and full results are usually seen in 3 to 4 weeks after your session. Generally, two or three treatments are required to get the results that most patients are looking for, especially if they have a double chin, but it could be as many as five treatments. A maximum of six treatments can be administered at one-month intervals with results lasting for years. Your skin care professional will create an individualized plan for you based on your specific needs and goals.
