The Non-Surgical Solution To Get Rid Of Your Double Chin For Good

Kybella is a new injectable treatment that has been shown to be very successful in reducing the appearance of saggy, jowly skin. Kybella works by treating the underlying cause of sagging, not just the appearance of it. Kybella is FDA-approved and can be used on both men and women. It is a safe and effective treatment that has minimal side effects.

KYBELLA® is an injectable filler used to define and sculpt the jawline. The treatments are purposefully created using an innovative approach called Selective Intraseptal Injection to target the fat cells and break them down. KYBELLA ® is made of a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that helps disintegrate fat. KYBELLA ®injections help reduce excess fatty tissue under the chin resulting in a more contoured appearance.

Kybella is a procedure that destroys fat cells by freezing them, and this results in the shrinkage of the chin area. The dead cells are then naturally removed by the body, eventually reducing the appearance of the double chin. Kybella has been shown to be safe and effective for treating double chin in patients who have not responded to other treatments such as diet and exercise. For continued, prolonged results, however, it is necessary to try to avoid gaining lots of weight after you’ve received a Kybella treatment.

The complete treatment course consists of two to four injections per treatment area and requires a few weeks between each procedure.
could see results as early as two weeks after treatment.

At Mirror Mirror Med Spa, we have dedicated experts that can help you decide if KYBELLA® is right for you based on your chin profile and an examination.

The process of treating your submental fat and fullness will take between 2-4 treatments with 1 to 2 vials per treatment depending on how much you need to be treated. A package price ranges anywhere from $800-$1200 dollars, but prices may vary based upon location; let’s talk about what this means!

This treatment is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with moderate to severe convexity or fullness associated with submental fat, also known as a “double chin.” Non-surgical treatments are not a substitute for surgical procedures. Patients should understand that KYBELLA® is not intended to replace liposuction.

KYBELLA® is a deoxycholic acid that is used to destroy fat cells. Once the cells are destroyed, they cannot store or accumulate fat. The results are permanent provided you maintain your weight and do not gain a lot of weight after treatment.

Consultation is key to finding out if you’re a good candidate for KYBELLA®. An experienced provider will take the time needed and make sure that your needs are met, whether it be cost or location!

KYBELLA® treatment sessions generally last between 15 and 20 minutes. The number of sessions you need depends on how much fat needs to be removed and will be determined by your doctor. Most people need 2-6 treatments, depending on how much excess fat they have.

The Kybella procedure is considered safe when performed by a qualified physician, but like all treatments, there are potential side effects. Common side effects can include pain, swelling, and bruising at the injection site, although these are relatively minor and typically resolve within a few weeks. Patients should also be aware that the effectiveness of Kybella may vary from person to person.

In an event where a Kybella treatment is carried out by an unqualified individual, serious side effects are to be expected. These can range from non-stop bleeding to infection to nerve damage or even death. As such, it is important to get the procedure done at a certified place like Mirror Mirror Med Spa, where you can be 100 percent sure that you will be in good hands.

As a side note, Kybella is also not currently approved for use in children or pregnant women, so if you are pregnant or underage, you may need to wait before you can go through with the process.

Some people prefer to get their Kybella cosmetic surgery during the colder months. As people wear scarves during the colder months, people who have their Kybella done at this time may cover the minor bruising on their chin with a scarf during this time. 

Other people prefer to have Kybella during the warmer months. This is because the bruising is so minor that many won’t even notice. Besides, all the bruising often goes away in less than a week. Plus, many people are happier and ready to show off their new look right away.

If you are considering when might be the right time for you to get your Kybella done, you should talk to us at Mirror Mirror Med Spa. We will be happy to discuss your specific needs and pick out a time of the year that might work best for you.

There are a few people who should not undergo Kybella. These individuals include those who are pregnant, have any kind of major medical condition, or have active skin cancer. 

Other people who should avoid surgery to reduce chin fat include those who do not want to permanently alter their appearance.

As with other cosmetic procedures, you must also be of the age of majority to be accepted as a candidate for Kybella.

The recommended waiting period between Kybella treatments is 6 to 8 weeks. So, if you are getting more than one Kybella treatment, you would need to wait at least 6 weeks before having another Kybella injection. 

Patients should avoid strenuous activity or contact sports for six to eight weeks after receiving Kybella treatment.
