The Science Behind Kybella's Double-Chin Reduction?

 KYBELLA’s Double Chin Reduction, THE SCIENCE BEHIND IT AND EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW!

 

Why do I have a double chin and how can I fix it?

 

It is perfectly normal to dislike the fat or fullness you have under your chin. Submental fat otherwise known as a ‘double chin’ is an extremely common occurrence that can be treated by Kybella treatment. You could have a double chin due to a number of reasons. Could be genetic and might run in your family. Could be because as you age your skin starts to sag and the skin under your chin might also sag and accumulate fat. It could even be because you indulge in junk food or take out a bit too much and don’t have the healthiest lifestyle. No matter the cause, a double chin can be unappealing to you when you take a look in the mirror and justifiably so, but luckily, it’s not untreatable. Kybella treatment is all the rage when it comes to chin fat removal and for good reason.  

 

Let’s dive into the science behind this revolutionizing treatment and how it works as a double chin treatment.

 

What is the Kybella treatment and how does it contribute to double chin reduction?

 

Kybella is a non-invasive treatment for any double chin. Kybella injections contain an active ingredient called Belkyra or deoxycholic acid that essentially reduces the appearance of a double chin. This is a molecule that has chemical similarities to bile that is produced by the liver in our body naturally. Bile is used for the digestion and breakdown or more specifically emulsification of the fat in our body. So similarly, deoxycholic acid also works to digest or break down the fat in areas where it is injected. 

 

When Belkyra is injected into the submental area it works by disrupting the cellular membrane of fat cells and in turn, causes apoptosis or ‘cell death of those fat cells. The debris (dead cells) left behind after the death of these chin fat cells is cleared out by our body’s natural waste removal system leaving behind a fat-free area. If there is any excess deoxycholic acid left in the area, it is also removed by your body’s circulatory system.

 

The process of achieving your desired results can take up to 6 months after your Kybella treatment. Depending on the amount of submental fat you have and what you’re looking to achieve you might need a number of treatments. This chin fat removal treatment is an excellent option for almost everyone as it does not require surgery and gives you the results you’re looking for.

How is the Kybella double chin treatment performed and by whom?

The best thing about this treatment is it takes barely any time at all (some minutes) and is very simple to perform. Now with that said, it is still extremely important to make sure that the person performing this procedure is a professional aesthetician with great expertise. Do your research and come avail a free consultation with the Lip Doctor to see if this treatment is the right fit for you. 

Once you reach the clinic for this double chin treatment the first step would be to clean the area. Your aesthetician will skillfully clean the area under your chin and around it to minimize the risk of infection post-procedure. Depending on your need and pain tolerance you might be given some local anesthetic to numb that area. After this, the Kybella injections are going to be injected skillfully under your chin to target your chin fat. The amount and location of injections will be determined by your performing aesthetician according to what you would have discussed with them in your consultation about your desired results. The more fat under your skin the more will be the quantity or frequency of injections you’d need. 

 

What does the aftercare situation look like after a Kybella treatment?

After the procedure, you might experience mild swelling and pain but nothing too serious so you can resume your day-to-day activities like any other day. If the pain is too much you can always take a painkiller medication and ice the area for the swelling. Rest assured, these mild symptoms if they even happen will be gone in no time. It is suggested though that you try to schedule the procedure at a time when you can take the next day off. This is because even though the treatment requires almost no downtime post-procedure, you might want to take a day’s rest in the rare case of redness, discomfort, swelling, or bruising. 

 

How much does this treatment cost? 

 

In and around the area of Toronto, the injections of Kybella price at a varying rate that depends on a number of factors. The amount of chin fat you have, the results you’re looking for and the number of sessions you would require. There might be some additional factors to consider like if you have a large amount of fat under your chin, the skin might sag after your treatment. You might end up needing treatment for the loose skin as well for that proper jawline definition so the price increases in this scenario. These questions about Kybella price can be answered by your performing aesthetician. 

 

Is Kybella double chin reduction a permanent solution?

 

One of the best things about the Kybella treatment is that it is definitely a permanent solution for your chin fat removal. Once you achieve the results you were looking for, you won’t require re-treatment and will be able to maintain those results in the long run. However, keep in mind that this is a permanent solution for your current submental fat as that fat will be removed but if you were to gain weight in that area again, you would be needing another treatment. So, I would recommend keeping a healthy lifestyle if you want to keep your results.

 

So, if you want to see a double chin reduction in your face and are a candidate for this procedure, you should definitely take the leap. Book a free consultation with Lip Doctor and let’s discuss how we can help you achieve those goals.
