Kybella® makes double chin surgery obsolete! This injectable formula can help you eliminate submental fat and regain your gorgeous profile with little downtime. At Holden Timeless Beauty, we make it simple for you to get the results you deserve and feel beautiful again.
Kybella® is often considered a form of “liquid liposuction.” When injected, it works by dissolving the cell membrane of fat cells. This process permanently removes approximately 25% of fat cells per treatment from your body. Get in touch with an HTB location near you to learn more about this miraculous injectable.
How Does a Double Chin Form?
Submental fat can collect under your chin after weight gain. When we eat more calories than we use as energy, the excess gets stored as fat, and that fat can sadly end up just about anywhere. The amount of fat you have in a specific area depends on your genetics and body structure.
Some people store more fat in their bellies, while others develop double chins. These pockets of lingering fat can not only be annoying but can cause us to feel self-conscious about ourselves as well.
What Are the Signs?
The term “double chin” comes from the appearance of an “extra” chin due to the fat. This submental fat can be visible in certain positions or ever-present. This isn’t a medical condition, nor does it cause health complications, but it can be annoying for many.
The best way to address any buildup of fat is through diet and exercise. However, you can’t spot-reduce fat, so there are no exercises that target that specific area. Therefore, a Kybella® treatment may be a great option.
Kybella® Injections for a Double Chin
Here at HTB, our injection process is simple! Your appointment will be scheduled for 30-45 minutes, but the actual treatment will only take 3-4 minutes. The rest of your appointment time will be spent mapping the treatment area, icing, and discussing aftercare. In most cases, 2-4 injections are needed to get the best results.
You may experience redness, swelling, and numbness after your injections. While these side effects won’t prevent most day-to-day activities, some social downtime may be needed.
