Kybella Treatments at Rejuve Anti Aging
If you’re bothered by a double chin that’s affecting your appearance, Rejuve Anti Aging provides Kybella® treatments to eliminate excess fat beneath the chin. This procedure unveils a beautifully sculpted neck and jawline area, helping you achieve a more youthful and defined look.
What is Kybella?
FDA approved since 2015, Kybella represents a groundbreaking approach by specifically targeting and eliminating fat beneath the chin. Prior to Kybella, the sole effective method to address a double chin was through liposuction. The advent of Kybella as an injectable, non-surgical treatment for excess submental fat has made it highly sought-after due to its convenience and effectiveness.
Key benefits of Kybella
Eliminating fat beneath the chin can pose a significant challenge. However, Kybella offers a highly effective solution for this area, gradually reducing fat through a series of injections. The key benefits of Kybella include:
- Quick, convenient, non-surgical treatments
- Minimal pain and little downtime
- A beautifully sculpted chin and profile
- Boosted self-esteem and confidence
- Results are permanent
How does Kybella work?
Kybella’s active ingredient is a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally-occurring molecule responsible for breaking down and absorbing dietary fat in the body. When injected into the excess fat beneath the chin, Kybella effectively destroys fat cells in the area, preventing further fat storage.
Kybella treatment details
Upon your arrival for your Kybella appointment, we will capture “before” images for documentation. As you prepare for your treatment, you will receive numbing cream beneath your chin to ensure your comfort. Subsequently, a temporary tattoo dot grid will be applied to aid your specialist in precisely targeting the treatment area.
During the treatment session, you can anticipate receiving approximately 10 to 50 injections over several minutes. While you may feel some sensation, discomfort is typically minimal thanks to the numbing cream. You might experience a mild burning sensation from the chemical itself, but we provide ice packs to alleviate any discomfort. Most patients find the treatment very tolerable. Following the procedure, you’ll be wrapped with a compression bandage, and you may experience slight soreness in the treated area. Kybella typically delivers optimal results after 2 to 4 treatments, spaced six weeks apart.
Recovery
Following a Kybella treatment, many patients experience swelling, which can give the sensation of a growing double chin; however, this is a normal part of the process. Once the swelling subsides completely, the targeted fat cells are permanently eliminated. Swelling typically peaks around 24 hours post-treatment and can last from a couple of days to several weeks. Throughout the recovery period, you may also encounter bruising, burning sensations, or numbness.
Results
It’s crucial to understand that while Kybella delivers significant results, they may take some time to fully manifest. Typically, 2 to 4 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart are required. Most patients notice visible improvements after 2 to 3 sessions. The number of treatments necessary depends on the extent of fat removal required. Once you achieve your desired outcome, maintenance treatments are unnecessary. Once Kybella eliminates the targeted fat cells, they are permanently eradicated.
