Kybella Double Chin Removal in North Scottsdale
Tired of a double chin? The Beauty Fix Medspa is your go-to for double chin removal in North Scottsdale. At our medspa, we offer Kybella, a non-surgical solution that can help you eliminate excess fat under your chin. Unlike diet and exercise, Kybella permanently destroys fat cells, providing long-lasting results. Scottsdale residents have embraced Kybella for its ability to sculpt a more defined jawline without the need for invasive procedures.
What is Kybella?
Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to reduce excess fat under the chin, often referred to as a "double chin." It's a non-surgical procedure that involves injecting a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a substance naturally produced by the body to break down fat.
When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella destroys fat cells, leading to a noticeable reduction in fullness and a more defined jawline. The results are typically long-lasting as the destroyed fat cells cannot regenerate.
Kybella Before and After
What to Expect
Each patient is unique, with different goals and needs, but here is what you can expect during a Kybella treatment:
Consultation: Before the procedure, you'll have a consultation with your provider. They will assess your chin area, discuss your goals, and determine if you're a good candidate for Kybella.
Preparation: The treatment area will be cleaned and numbed with a topical anesthetic.
Injections: Your provider will inject Kybella into the areas of excess fat under your chin. The injections are typically described as feeling like small pinpricks.
Treatment Time: The procedure usually takes about 15-20 minutes.
Recovery: There may be some redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites after the treatment. These side effects are generally mild and should subside within a few days.
What Areas Can Be Treated with Kybella?
Kybella is primarily approved for treating the submental area, which is the area under the chin. It's designed to reduce excess fat in this specific region.
Ideal Candidates for Kybella Injections
Typically, most patients are ideal candidates for Kybella. If you are seeking cosmetic improvement, without surgery, you are a great candidate for this treatment. While Kybella is a nonsurgical procedure, patients who do not meet the requirements could experience nerve injury and subsequent facial muscle weakness. We believe it is better to reschedule cosmetic treatments rather than rush into them. Feel free to contact our professionals if you have any questions before or on the day of your treatment.
Proper Preparation for Your Kybella Treatment
Kybella can cause temporary swelling and bruising, which typically resolve within a week. To minimize side effects after your treatment we recommend the following:
Avoid medications, supplements, or activities that could aggravate swelling or bruising before and after treatment
Avoid NSAIDs, herbal supplements, smoking, and alcohol
Arnica can help reduce bruising, but consult your doctor first
Shave your chin before treatment.
While Kybella is effective for reducing fat, it has limitations and may require multiple treatments. Avoid intense activity or excessive heat for a few days after treatment.
How Quickly Will I See Results from Kybella?
A Kybella injection destroys fat cells and will deliver visible results in 2 to 4 months. Along with your Kybella treatment, a healthy lifestyle can also help you get faster, better, and long-lasting Kybella results.
