Say Goodbye to Your Double Chin With Kybella Injection Treatments
If you’re ready to get rid of stubborn fat under your chin, Kybella injections are a groundbreaking, permanent solution. At Flora Aesthetics and Wellness, our nurses specialize in Kybella and can help you see the results you’re looking for.
What is Kybella & How Does It Work?
You’ve probably heard the name floating around, but you might still be wondering, “What is Kybella?” Kybella is an FDA-approved, non-surgical injection that treats submental fat cells below the chin. In other words, it’s a shot that gets rid of your double chin.
How Does Kybella Work?
Kybella is a solution containing synthetic deoxycholic acid that destroys fat cells under the chin. In order to receive this treatment, we first meet with potential clients for a consultation.
Consultation
Our goal is to help you look and feel your best, which is why we make sure to go over your expectations ahead of time. We also make sure there’s nothing that may prevent you from receiving Kybella. For example, if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have recently had face or neck surgery, you may not be a candidate for Kybella injections.
Treatment Process
When you come in for your Kybella injections, the nurse will apply a numbing cream, mark the injection sites, and insert the solution into the fat under your skin. Some clients see results after just one treatment, while others may require up to six.
Destruction of Fat Process
Deoxycholic acid is naturally occurring in our bodies as a way to break down fat. Kybella uses a synthetic form of this acid to specifically target and destroy fat cells in double chins. This means Kybella is a permanent treatment, as long as you don’t gain a significant amount of weight following your injections.
Benefits of Kybella
Kybella has been proven to be a highly effective way to eliminate submental fat under the chin. It’s a great alternative to liposuction and other more invasive procedures and requires almost no down time. Most clients who receive Kybella are thrilled with the results, and can say goodbye to their double chin for good.
Kybella Results & Aftercare
Although you won’t need extensive recovery time after Kybella injections, there are still a few side effects to watch for. Some clients experience temporary bruising, redness, swelling, and itching under the chin after a treatment.
You will likely see Kybella begin to work its magic in a week or two, but it can take a few months to see the final results of this treatment. If you plan on receiving multiple treatments over the course of several months, the final results will take longer to sink in.
After Kybella, there are several things you can do to help alleviate swelling and discomfort:
- Avoid alcohol
- Stay away from extreme heat for at least 24 hours
- Try not to sleep on your side or stomach
- Apply cold ice packs or compresses
- Take approved pain relievers
- Avoid touching or massaging the injection site as much as possible
- Rest, and avoid heavy exercise for a few days after treatment
Is Kybella Right for You?
Kybella injections are great for clients over the age of 18 who want to get rid of a double chin. It’s always a good idea to consult with your doctor to make sure Kybella is a safe and responsible choice.
Kybella is not designed to help with loose skin under the chin after weight loss, or sagging skin due to age. Rather than tightening the skin, Kybella injections target fat cells.
Because Kybella hasn’t been studied in conjunction with childbirth, most providers do not recommend these injections if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding. You may also not be a candidate for Kybella if you have certain medical conditions like trouble swallowing or blood clotting disorders.
