Have you heard about Kybella yet?
My Dear Patients,
Kybella is an innovative non-invasive solution that removes excess fat from underneath the chin. A non-surgical alternative to traditional procedures such as a neck lift, lower facelift, or neck liposuction, Kybella is the only FDA-approved injectable that reduces submental fat cells that contribute to the appearance of a “double chin.”
Submental fat can be caused by numerous factors, including excess weight gain, aging, and genetics. This type of fat has shown to be resistant to traditional fat loss methods, such as diet and exercise. The struggle ends now with the help of Kybella!
Made from a naturally-occurring substance known as deoxycholic acid, Kybella begins targeting excess fat cells upon injection and removes them from the body. When Kybella is injected, the membranes of the targeted fat cells are destroyed. Once destroyed, the cells are no longer able to store fat, and are naturally eliminated from the body in the next 4 to 6 weeks.
Most patients need 2-4 treatments depending on the size of the area. Treatments last about 15 minutes and most patients report minimal to moderate discomfort. The best part is that once the fat is removed, it is gone forever and does not require retreatment!
