Kybella: An Effective Double Chin Treatment

Kybella: An Effective Double Chin Treatment

If you are tired of dealing with a double chin, you may be thinking about using some of the fat removal treatments and procedures that are currently available. We would like to tell you why Kybella® is the ultimate double chin treatment.

Specifically Designed for Submental Fullness

It is true that individuals have been able to get satisfying results using other treatments in order to get rid of a double chin. However, these treatments were not specifically designed in order to address submental fullness. Many of them were designed in order to treat larger areas of the body, like the thighs, hips, or belly area.

Kybella® is only used as a double chin treatment. The active ingredient in the product is called deoxycholic acid. This is a substance that occurs naturally in the body. It is used in the stomach to break down fat and help the body to absorb nutrients. When it is injected into the fat under the chin, it will break down the fat cells. However, the other cells will not be affected.

Since other processes for getting rid of a double chin are more bulky and invasive, there is the potential for bruising, scarring, and swelling. When Kybella® injections are used, many of these risks completely disappear. The area under the chin is quite fragile. Using these simple injections is a great way to get rid of unwanted fat in a much more gentle way.

No Recovery Time

We understand that our clients are busy. They have families to take care of, jobs to do, and lots of responsibilities. One of the things that is especially appealing to our clients about a double chin treatment with Kybella® is the fact that there is no recovery time. When you have this injectable treatment performed, you are going to walk right out of our office and get back to normal life.

The number of treatments you may need can vary, which is something we can discuss with you at your personalized consultation. Treatment times typically range from 15 to 30 minutes.

Permanent Results

This product is designed to break down fat cells under the chin. Since the fat cells are broken down and then removed naturally from the body, individuals who use these injections can expect permanent results from the treatment. It is good to know to that there will still be fat cells left under the chin. So in order for the results to be permanent, an individual will need to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

We know that a lot of the double chin treatment options out there just aren’t practical, which is why we offer Kybella® at MedSpa 22 in Fort Myers, FL. We would be happy to speak with you more about the benefits that come from using this product. Contact us today to schedule your consultation!
