Kybella®
What is Kybella®?
Kybella® is an FDA-approved injectable treatment specifically designed to target and reduce submental fat, which is the fat that accumulates under the chin. The active ingredient in Kybella® is synthetic deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in breaking down and absorbing dietary fat. Once injected into the submental area, Kybella® destroys fat cells, which are then gradually eliminated by the body, resulting in a more contoured and defined jawline.
Advantages
- Non-Surgical. Kybella® offers a non-invasive method to reduce submental fullness without the need for surgery or anesthesia.
- Permanent Results. The fat cells targeted by Kybella® are destroyed permanently, ensuring long-lasting results.
- Quick Treatment Sessions. Each session typically lasts 15 to 20 minutes, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
- Customizable Treatments. Kybella® treatments are tailored to each individual’s unique anatomy and aesthetic goals.
- Minimal Downtime. Most patients experience only mild swelling, with little to no interruption to daily activities.
- FDA-Approved. Kybella® is a clinically proven, safe treatment with FDA approval.
- Natural Results. The gradual reduction of fat ensures a natural-looking improvement, without drastic changes.
Target Concerns
- Submental Fullness: Kybella® effectively reduces the appearance of a double chin by targeting the fat beneath the chin.
- Jawline Definition: By reducing submental fat, Kybella® enhances the definition of the jawline, providing a more sculpted look.
- Profile Balance: Refining the chin area can improve the overall balance and harmony of facial features.
- Self-Confidence: Many patients report increased confidence after Kybella® treatments, as they feel their appearance better reflects their inner vitality.
What to Expect During Treatment
At AAFE Medspa, your Kybella® treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation to determine the best approach for your needs. During the procedure, small injections of Kybella® are administered into the targeted area under the chin using a fine needle.
The treatment typically takes 15 to 20 minutes, with most patients experiencing only mild discomfort. Mild swelling or redness may occur after the procedure but usually subsides within 2 – 4 weeks.
How Many Kybella® Treatments Will I Need?
Patients often notice results within two to four treatment sessions. While some may need all four sessions to reach their ideal look, once that’s achieved, additional treatments are usually not required.
How Long Do Results Last?
The results from Kybella® are permanent because the targeted fat cells are destroyed and do not regenerate. However, it’s essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle to prevent the formation of new fat cells in the treated area.
Aftercare is straightforward, involving minimal restrictions—patients are advised to avoid strenuous exercise for a few days and follow any specific aftercare instructions provided by the practitioner.
Who Are the Ideal Candidates?
Kybella® is ideal for individuals with moderate submental fullness who seek a non-surgical solution to enhance their jawline. It’s particularly effective for those looking to eliminate a double chin without the downtime associated with surgery.
