What Is Kybella?
Many people associate a double chin with being overweight, but that’s often not the case. Submental fullness results from excess fat cells around the jaw and below the chin, and it can affect some of the fittest individuals. At Bel Viso Medical Spa in East Greenwich, RI, we offer Kybella, an effective cosmetic injectable that destroys the fat cells causing your double chin to help you achieve a sculpted and more aesthetically pleasing chin profile.
What Is Kybella?
Kybella is the only FDA-approved cosmetic injectable designed to permanently reduce submental fullness beneath the chin, or what is also known as the double chin. This injectable helps slim the jawline by destroying stubborn fat cells below the chin and in the jawline region to help you achieve your aesthetic goals in a way that diet, weight loss, and fitness simply cannot.
What Causes a Double Chin?
Many factors can lead to the development of a double chin. For some, submental fullness is simply genetic. Despite being at a healthy weight, some people cannot get rid of their double chin because that double chin has been genetically predetermined. For others, submental fullness can result from age or weight gain.
As you age, the fat distribution in your face and neck begins to shift, which can lead to the formation of a double chin. If you gain weight, that weight gain may be most evident in some specific areas, the chin included. Whatever the case, Kybella is a powerful cosmetic injectable that can defy genetics, the aging process, and the results of weight gain.
What Are the Benefits?
This treatment is growing in popularity among men and women who lived some or most of their lives with submental fullness that has affected their appearance and confidence. This treatment delivers gradual results, so never at any point during treatment will you look as though you went and had something done to address your double chin. You will slowly develop a more contoured and sculpted chin profile.
No one will know about your Kybella injections unless you want them to. Another benefit is that treatments are quick and only take a few minutes to complete. While you may need more than one treatment to achieve your goals, these treatments will not monopolize your day, and you won’t have to rearrange your entire schedule to attend appointments.
How It Works
Deoxycholic acid is the primary ingredient in this injectable that helps dissolve the fat beneath the chin. Deoxycholic acid occurs in the body naturally, and its primary role is to help the body both break down and absorb the fat you eat on a daily basis.
However, the creators of Kybella realized that deoxycholic acid could be used to do more than break down fat in the body; it could also destroy fat below the chin when administered in injection form. Deoxycholic acid is so effective because it destroys fat cells below the chin to help slim and contour the entire area.
