Double Chin Solution with Kybella

Kybella FillerThe double chin is a common problem that affects both men and women. The accumulation of fatty tissue under the chin can give the impression of being overweight and add years to one’s appearance. A double chin can be frustrating and also cause a negative impact on an individual’s self-image. Sometimes, dieting and exercise just can’t fix the problem. In the past, expensive surgical procedures were carried out to get rid of that pesky double chin, like liposuction. Recent breakthrough for the treatment of the double chin has emerged – Kybella!

Kybella made by Allergan is a drug that has been approved by the Food and Drug Authority (FDA) for the treatment of the reduction submental fullness, or fat under the chin. Minimizing or removing fat in this region can now be done with this minimally invasive procedure. There are minimal side effects and a high success rate with Kybella treatments.Kybella before and after by RajaniMD in Portland, OR

How does Kybella work?

Kybella  basically follows the natural principles of fat dissolution in our own body. The body produces a substance known as deoxycholic acid which is responsible for destruction of the excess adipose tissue in the body. Deoxycholic acid specifically targets the cell membranes of adipose tissue, or fat cells. It penetrates the fat cells causing them to burst. Kybella works along the same lines. Deoxycholic acid in Kybella injections causes the fat cells to burst, thus reducing the fat accumulated in the submental space.

Kybella treatments are recommended for those who are displeased with fatty deposits under the chin that give the impression of a double chin. For many people, this false double-chin make them seem overweight and throw off their facial shape. Kybella is for those who wish to eliminate this pocket of fat without having to undergo surgery. Kybella is effective for all skin types and tones. Patients who do not have control of their weight may not be good candidates as future fluctuations in weight can have a negative impact on their results. With Kybella you can achieve a slimmer, more youthful and contoured chin and neck.

What to Expect

Before your treatment, we recommend you come in for a consultation with one of Dr. Rajani’s experienced aesthetic injectors to ensure your safety and make sure Kybella is right for you!  During this one-on-one time, we will assess your treatment area and review your medical history. The Kybella treatment, expectations of the procedure, and aftercare will also be discussed. Together, we will determine the best treatment plan for you to remove the stubborn fat under your chin.

Kybella will injected by Dr. Rajani or one of his expert nurse injectors. Prior to your Kybella injections,the chin will be thoroughly cleaned and prepped, and a topical numbing agent and ice will be applied to the treatment site for your comfort.  The exact number of injections used will vary depending on the patients, ranging from at least twenty to thirty small injection sites. This technique gives a balanced and evenly spread out treatment and targets fat cells across a wide area. Most patients report very minimal discomfort during the injection process.  More than one treatment may be required if the amount of accumulated fat is high.

The entire session can take as little as fifteen to thirty minutes from start to finish. Most patients will experience swelling or redness of the area under the chin. Multiple injection sessions are typical and will vary depending on how much fat reduction is desired. Six sessions, no less than a month apart is a commonly recommended course. You will have noticeable swelling for 3 to 5 days. After this time, you will have swelling noticeable to your eye for 3 to 4 weeks after.

What results can I expect from Kybella treatment?

Kybella treatment can give patients a lifted, leaner, more youthful neck and can also help with skin tightening.  The best and most noticeable results are visible within 3 to 6 months.  At Style Aesthetics, you can expect to always receive the best care and treatments Portland has to offer.

How long will my results last?

When injected into fat under the chin, Kybella causes permanent destruction of fat cells. Once destroyed, those cells cannot store or accumulate fat.  More than one treatment session may be required if the amount of accumulated fat tissue is high.

How long does the procedure last?

The Kybella procedure takes about 30 minutes from start to finish.  Kybella as a treatment is proficient, quick and doesn’t take much time to do.  A treatment with Kybella is fast and destroys fat cells permanently.

How many treatments will I need?

During your consultation, we will create a tailored treatment plan based on your profile. At each treatment, you will be given multiple small injections under your chin. You may receive up to 6 treatment sessions, spaced at least 1 month apart.  In clinical studies, 59% of patients received an average of 6 treatments.

Is there downtime with Kybella treatment?

It is common for some patients to experience swelling, redness, or bruising at the area of injection for a few days to a week and ice packs can help with the healing process. Give yourself a minimum of 2 weeks before any events/vacations.

Can Kybella treat other areas of fat?

Kybella causes permanent destruction of fat cells and can be injected to destroy fat tissue in areas such as the double chin, jowls, abdomen/flank area, bra bulge, and inner thighs.

How much does Kybella cost?

There are several factors that will determine the cost of your Kybella treatment such as the number of sessions and amount of vials required for your aesthetic goals.  At Style Aesthetics pricing starts at $800 for a single vial of Kybella and ranges to $450 per vial when 6 or more are purchased. A thorough discussion of pricing will be done during your private consultation.  At our Portland practice, Style Aesthetics strives to make each session more affordable by accepting cash, all major credit cards, and healthcare financing through CareCredit.

Why should I choose Kybella over liposuction?

Kybella is a viable chin sculpting alternative to liposuction. Both treatments are great for reducing fat from underneath but are not the same. Liposuction is a well-known method for fat removal but is a more-demanding process since it is an invasive surgical procedure with a recovery period that can last a few weeks.  On the other hand, Kybella treatments only require a series of tiny injections during a session that can take as little as fifteen minutes with no anesthesia required.  Kybella treatments are less taxing on the body and patients can quickly resume their daily activities soon after treatment.
