Kybella: Non-Surgical Chin Fat Reduction
In the quest for a more defined facial profile, many people are seeking effective, non-invasive treatments to eliminate stubborn fat under the chin. At St. Julien Aesthetics in Baton Rouge, we offer Kybella, an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to provide a non-surgical solution for reducing chin fat. This blog will walk you through everything you need to know about Kybella, from how it works to its myriad benefits.
What is Kybella?
Kybella is a revolutionary injectable treatment that targets fat cells under the chin. Comprising deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body, Kybella breaks down and absorbs dietary fat. Once these fat cells are destroyed, they can no longer store or accumulate fat, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin. This makes Kybella an excellent option for those looking for a non-surgical chin fat reduction.
The Treatment Process
At St. Julien Aesthetics, the Kybella treatment process is straightforward and minimally invasive. During your appointment, multiple small injections of Kybella are administered under the chin. The procedure typically takes about 15-20 minutes, making it suitable even for those with a busy schedule.
Results usually begin to appear after 2-4 sessions, spaced at least one month apart. For most patients, 2-4 sessions are sufficient to achieve the desired results, but some may require up to 6 sessions, depending on the amount of fat and their aesthetic goals. The best part? The results are permanent because once the fat cells are destroyed, they cannot regenerate.
Benefits of Kybella
One of the primary benefits of Kybella is its ability to reduce chin fat without the need for surgery. This means no incisions, no general anesthesia, and minimal downtime. Other benefits include:
- Permanent Results: Once the fat cells are destroyed, they do not return.
- Quick and Convenient: Each session takes only about 15-20 minutes.
- Customizable Treatment: The number of sessions can be tailored to meet individual needs.
Ideal Candidates for Kybella
Kybella is ideal for adults with moderate to severe chin fat, who are looking for a non-surgical method to reduce this fullness. However, it is not suitable for individuals with infections in the treatment area, those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or those with certain medical conditions. A consultation with our qualified professionals at St. Julien Aesthetics will help determine if Kybella is the right treatment for you.
What to Expect After Treatment
Post-treatment care is essential for optimal results. Patients may experience some swelling, bruising, or numbness under the chin, which usually resolves within a few days to a week. It is advised to avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements for a week before treatment to minimize bruising. Additionally, avoiding strenuous activities, alcohol, and excessive sun or heat exposure for 24 hours post-treatment is recommended.
While Kybella is generally safe, it is crucial to choose a qualified healthcare provider to minimize risks such as infection, nerve injury, and muscle weakness.
Kybella and Other Treatments
Kybella can also be combined with other aesthetic treatments like Botox or dermal fillers for comprehensive facial rejuvenation. At St. Julien Aesthetics, we provide personalized treatment plans to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
