10 Jun Eliminate Submental Fullness Without Surgery
At RefinedMD, we’re proud to offer Kybella—a non-surgical injectable treatment designed to reduce submental fullness, commonly known as a “double chin.” Kybella is the first and only FDA-approved injectable that targets and destroys fat cells beneath the chin, resulting in a more contoured and defined jawline.
Submental fullness can be caused by factors such as aging, genetics, and weight gain, and it often persists despite diet and exercise. Kybella provides a safe and effective solution for individuals seeking to improve their profile without undergoing invasive procedures.
Harnessing Deoxycholic Acid for Fat Reduction
Kybella’s active ingredient is synthetic deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the submental area, Kybella destroys fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body’s metabolic processes.
Once these fat cells are destroyed, they can no longer store or accumulate fat, leading to long-lasting results. This targeted approach allows for precise contouring of the chin and jawline, enhancing the overall facial profile.
Quick Sessions with Minimal Downtime
A typical Kybella treatment at RefinedMD involves a series of small injections under the chin, with the entire session lasting about 15 to 20 minutes. The number of injections and sessions required varies depending on the individual’s anatomy and desired outcome.
Patients may experience mild swelling, bruising, or numbness in the treatment area, which typically subsides within a few days. Most individuals can resume their normal activities shortly after the procedure, making Kybella a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.
Visible Results and Long-Term Benefits
Patients often begin to notice visible improvements in their chin profile within four to six weeks after treatment, with optimal results typically achieved after two to four sessions spaced a month apart. The gradual reduction in submental fullness leads to a more sculpted and youthful appearance.
Since Kybella permanently destroys fat cells in the treated area, the results are long-lasting, provided the patient maintains a stable weight. This makes Kybella an excellent investment for individuals seeking a lasting solution to submental fullness.
Ideal Candidates for Kybella
Kybella is suitable for adults with moderate to severe submental fullness who prefer a non-surgical approach to fat reduction. It is particularly beneficial for individuals who are close to their ideal body weight but struggle with stubborn fat beneath the chin.
During your consultation at RefinedMD, our experienced providers will assess your medical history and aesthetic goals to determine if Kybella is the right treatment for you. We are committed to creating personalized treatment plans that align with each patient’s unique needs.
Enhancing Results with Combined Therapies
To further enhance the effects of Kybella, it can be combined with other aesthetic treatments offered at RefinedMD. For instance, pairing Kybella with skin-tightening procedures like Ultherapy or Thermage can address skin laxity, providing a more comprehensive rejuvenation of the lower face and neck.
Our team will work with you to develop a customized treatment plan that incorporates complementary therapies, ensuring that each procedure contributes to your overall aesthetic goals and delivers optimal results.
Safety and Considerations
Kybella is an FDA-approved treatment with a strong safety profile when administered by trained professionals. At RefinedMD, our providers are highly experienced in performing Kybella injections, ensuring precise application and minimizing the risk of side effects.
As with any cosmetic procedure, it’s essential to have a thorough consultation to discuss potential risks and benefits. Our team will provide you with detailed information and answer any questions you may have, helping you make an informed decision about your treatment.
