At each treatment, you will receive multiple small injections under your chin, and the injection process takes about 15 to 20 minutes. The exact number of injections will depend on the amount of fat you have under your chin and your desired profile.
KYBELLA
Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to reduce moderate to severe fat beneath the chin, commonly known as submental fullness or “double chin.” Composed of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat, Kybella works by destroying fat cells in the targeted area. This non-surgical procedure offers a convenient alternative to invasive methods such as liposuction, providing patients with a more contoured and defined jawline without the need for extensive downtime. However, it’s important to note that Kybella may require multiple sessions for optimal results, and side effects such as swelling, bruising, and numbness are possible. Overall, Kybella has emerged as a popular option for individuals seeking a more sculpted profile and increased confidence in their appearance.
Since everyone’s chin profile is different, the number of treatments varies from patient to patient. At VitaLuxe, we will help you determine how many treatment sessions you need based on the amount and distribution of your submental fat and your personal treatment goals. Each Kybella treatment session is given at least 1 month apart, and you should not receive more than 6 treatments. In clinical studies, 59% of patients received 6 treatments.
