Shrink Your Double Chin Fat With Kybella

Shrink Your Double Chin Fat With Kybella

You cannot stop aging and the effects of aging on your face, such as fine lines, sun spots, wrinkles and sagging. The skin sags around the chin with age, filling with fat and creating a ā€œdouble chin.ā€ The appearance of multiple chins is medically known as convexity, associated with accumulation of bothersome submental fat. This curse of middle age, the ugly double chin can be banished with injections of Kybella. For years the only alternative to get rid of the double chin was going under the knife of a plastic surgeon for a chin tuck, but no longer! Help is at hand with simple injections of Kybella ATX 101 by Kythera. Kybella is the first and only FDA-approved non-surgical treatment to help contour and reduce the appearance of submental fullness.

Ā 

KYTHERA Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. announced the US availability of Kybella injection on June 19th 2015, to treat double chins. The magic formula was developed by researchers at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Centre in Dallas and patients can get the treatment in a cosmetologist or dermatologist office on an outpatient basis.

What Is Kybella?

Kybella is a prescription medicine containing ATX 101 which is a cytotoxic drug synthetic-similar to deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid helps the body to absorb fat naturally. Kybella is injected into the fat layer of skin to destroy the cell membrane of the fat cells and improve the appearance of fat below the chin commonly referred to as the ā€œdouble chin.ā€ The fat is permanently destroyed and absorbed into the body, which results in visible improvement in the under-chin area. Patients can receive multiple injections in the submental area and up to six treatments may be administered, with a gap of one month in between treatments.

Kybella is remarkably safe, as proved by clinical trials, according to FDA. Apart from FDA clinical trials, KYTHERA Biopharmaceuticals also conducted 20 clinical trials on 2600 patients worldwide, with more than 90% of patients happy with the results post injection. There may be some side effects such as pain, swelling and bruising with KYBELLAĀ treatments but they are transient and resolve within 7-10 days of swelling. Kybella is safe as long as it is administered by a trained professional, following drug dosage instructions and proper injection procedure. Ā The best results from a treatment are noticed at 6-8 weeks post injection.

If you have a double chin or want to reduce fat from under chin, you are a prime candidate for Kybella treatment. It is ideal for a man or woman of any skin type or ethnicity. Each chin treatment session with KYBELLA lasts typically 15 to 20 minutes, and is easy to have done at anytime of the day. You must be over 18 years old, with moderate to severe submental fatty tissue, in overall good health. You should understand how Kybella procedure works and have reasonable expectations from it. Kybella is not for patients who are pregnant, or those with an active infection or bleeding disorder.

Calista Skin and Laser ClinicĀ offers a free consultation for KYBELLAā„¢ treatment for anyone concerned with their ā€œdouble chin.ā€ A consultation with an examination of the under chin fat will help evaluate if you can undergo KYBELLA procedure and how many injections you will need. Most patients generally need 2-4 treatments with a month apart between each but larger ā€œdouble chinsā€ need more treatments, with up to 6 treatments of KYBELLA allowed.
