You may think liposuction is the only way to get rid of the double chin, but there is a treatment that can do it in just a couple of minutes, and it is called Kybella®. This FDA-approved treatment is made of Deoxycholic acid, a substance that can destroy fat tissue and later eliminate it by your own body.
What areas can be treated?
Kybella® is mainly used to treat the “Double chin,” but it can also treat other areas like underarm fat, upper arm, bra fat, abdominal area, and knee. Once the treatment is done, the fat tissue will be destroyed; however, you should maintain a healthy lifestyle to avoid its accumulation. Lack of exercise and a poor diet can make the remaining fat cells grow again.
When will I see the results?
For most of the patients, more than one session is suggested. You will not see instant results; on the other hand, the area will remain swollen for some days. The waiting time to recommend other sessions is around six weeks. After this period, a re-evaluation must be done by the physician where a new session can be suggested.
Who is a good candidate for a Kybella® treatment?
This treatment works well for people with mild skin laxity as the fat in that area is dissolved and a tightening effect is produced after the fat disappears. If the skin is sagging and the fat is removed, the chances of further sagginess are higher.
