This FDA-approved injectable targets and destroys stubborn fat cells beneath the chin, reducing the appearance of a double chin with a minimally invasive treatment and long-lasting results.
An FDA-approved injectable treatment, Kybella in Langhorne, PA, targets and eliminates fat cells beneath the chin, commonly called a “double chin.” This non-surgical procedure utilizes a synthetic form of this naturally occurring molecule called deoxycholic acid, which helps break down fat and absorb it. As a result of Kybella being injected under the chin, fat cells are destroyed, resulting in a very noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin.
Kybella® is an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to reduce stubborn fat beneath the chin, commonly known as a double chin. It provides a non-surgical option for creating a slimmer, more defined chin profile. Kybella® uses a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a molecule that helps break down and absorb fat.
When injected beneath the chin, it destroys targeted fat cells, reducing fullness in the area. Once destroyed, these fat cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, providing long-lasting results. According to Dermalign Medical Aesthetics, visible results are typically achieved after 2–4 treatment sessions, generally spaced about one month apart.
Individuals with moderate to severe fat under the chin who prefer a non-surgical solution are ideal candidates for Kybella. Additionally, those looking for a treatment with lasting results and minimal downtime will find Kybella a suitable option.
Most patients observe visible results after 2 to 4 treatment sessions, with sessions spaced a month apart.
The results are long-lasting once the desired outcome is achieved since the treated fat cells are permanently destroyed and cannot store fat.
Some patients might experience swelling, bruising, or numbness under the chin, but these side effects are typically temporary and resolve independently.
Before the treatment, avoid taking anti-inflammatory drugs or blood thinners. After the treatment, avoiding strenuous activities for 24 hours and following any post-care instructions provided by Dermalign Medical Aesthetics are essential.
