Let’s be real, a double chin is NOT sexy. If you have one, you likely want to get rid of it. Sadly, you can’t spot reduce fat through exercise, so hitting the gym to dissolve submental fat isn’t a good option. What is a good option is KYBELLA®. This injectable treatment is dubbed “liquid liposuction” for a good reason – it eliminates submental fat after only a handful of injections. The process is simple and can be handled by Kirin right here at Emerald Aesthetics!
What Is KYBELLA®?
KYBELLA® is an injectable made of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that breaks down dietary fat. This injectable might be a good option if you don’t want surgery or feel that area under your chin is heavy and doesn’t quite go away, no matter how healthy you are. Everyone’s chin profile and goals differ, so a consultation is recommended before you opt for treatment.
What Does KYBELLA® Address?
This injectable treatment is ideal for stubborn fat under the chin but can work on other parts of the body too. When injected, it dissolves targeted fat and allows it to be absorbed by the body later. This is a great alternative to surgery because it doesn’t require as much downtime and can make a big difference in your profile. Other areas that can be targeted include:
- The jowls
- Armpit/bra fat
- Banana roll
- Stomach pouch
What to Expect
Most people need about 2-6 sessions of injections over 2-6 months to get the best outcome. The appointment time is usually about 30 mins, including numbing time. The actual injections are small, but there are many sites typically, and the injections tend to sting. For the first 48 hours, ice and Tylenol can help, and keeping your head elevated while you sleep can also be helpful.
KYBELLA® Liquid Liposuction Results
Some results can be seen after 2-4 treatment sessions. In clinical trials, 59% of patients needed six treatments for the best results. Kirin will discuss possible side effects and recovery time during your consultation at Emerald Aesthetics.
