Eliminate unwanted double chin

Kybella is an injectable that treats submental fullness, commonly known as a “double chin.” Unlike surgical methods, Kybella offers a minimally invasive approach to eliminating excess fat beneath the chin. Its active ingredient, synthetic deoxycholic acid, breaks down fat cell membranes upon injection. Once administered, deoxycholic acid disrupts the integrity of fat membranes, leading to the removal of excess fat by the body’s natural metabolic processes.

This innovative process effectively reduces the volume of fat tissue in the treated area, resulting in a more sculpted and defined jawline. Over time, the body metabolizes the dissolved fat, resulting in a noticeable improvement in chin contour and overall facial appearance. By precisely targeting submental fat deposits, Kybella offers patients a safe and efficient solution to enhance their facial profile without requiring invasive surgery or prolonged recovery periods.

Kybella can treat the following:

  • Submental fullness (double chin)
  • Excess fat deposits beneath the chin
  • Lack of definition in the jawline
  • Unwanted accumulation of fat in the submental area

Your personalized Kybella treatment at SVSS

During your initial consultation, Rachel will assess your concerns and aesthetic goals regarding submental fullness. She will also inquire about your medical history to ensure Kybella is a suitable option for you. Expect a thorough examination of your chin and neck area to determine the extent of treatment needed. Rachel will discuss the treatment process in detail, explaining how Kybella works and what you can expect during and after the procedure.

The number of Kybella injections required depends on factors like the amount of submental fat and desired results. Rachel will cleanse and numb your skin and administer the appropriate units of Kybella using ultrafine needles into targeted tissues. Most individuals need up to six sessions spaced a month apart for optimal results. Rachel will recommend the appropriate number of sessions based on your unique goals to ensure optimal results.

FAQs

What can I expect during the Kybella treatment?

During the treatment, Rachel will administer a series of small injections into the fat beneath your chin. While discomfort levels vary from person to person, most individuals report only minor discomfort during the procedure. Some may experience swelling, bruising, or numbness in the treated area following the injections, but these side effects resolve within a few days to a week.

How long does a Kybella treatment session take?

A Kybella treatment session typically takes around 15 to 20 minutes to complete.

How many Kybella injections will I need?

The number of Kybella injections needed varies depending on factors such as the amount of submental fat and the desired results. However, most patients require three to six treatments spaced approximately one month apart.

When will I see the results from Kybella?

The results from Kybella injections are not immediate, as it takes time for the body to metabolize and eliminate the destroyed fat cells. Most patients begin to notice an improvement in their chin profile within two to four treatment sessions, with the full results visible after several months.

How long do the results of Kybella last?

The results of Kybella are long-lasting, as the treated fat cells are permanently removed from the body. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and stable weight is important to prevent the existing fat cells from expanding in the treated area.
