Kybella

Excessive fat around your chin can affect the overall appearance of your face. You can develop extra fat around your chin due to aging, diet, poor posture, genetics, or facial structure. Look no further if you’re striving to get rid of your double chin J’adore Beauty and Aesthetics has found a great solution for your double chin concerns known as Kybella.

Our expert practitioners suggest undergoing Kybella to reduce the excess fat beneath the chin. This versatile method uses a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid to target the fat cells of the area around your chin.

Before starting the treatment, we at J’adore Beauty and Aesthetics ensure our clients must know every aspect of the Kybella so that they can have an idea of its benefits, results, and side effects.

What is Kybella-A Brief Overview?

Kybella is a non-surgical Injectable cosmetic grade treatment specifically designed to destroy the fat cells under the chin. Our providers use a series of deoxycholic acid injections to target the excess fat around your chin. Kybella is a great non-surgical procedure that does not require incision and offers minimal downtime.

This FDA-approved procedure uses deoxycholic acid, which helps to absorb fat. When deoxycholic acid is injected into your skin, it destroys the fat cells beneath your chin area so it can't store any more fat then it naturally metabolizes itself out the body. An ice pack and topical numbing agent is used to ease discomfort during the procedure.

If you are above 18 years and not allergic to any ingredient used in the Kybella procedure, you can undergo this procedure to get rid of a double chin. Our practitioners may ask if you had any prior treatments around your neck, face, or chin so that they can decide whether the procedure is beneficial for you.

A consultation is always required to see if you are a candidate for this treatment because there has to be enough fat in the area. This procedure requires a series of sessions in order to achieve the best results and it is essential that you go with the provider's recommendation in order to achieve these results. It can take up to 4-6 months to see the visible results of Kybella. Kybella offers long-lasting results by destroying the fat cells around your chin and can be used in other areas where fat is present as long as it is approved by the provider.

Kybella Pre & Post Care

AFTER TREATMENT

  • After your treatment, you should expect swelling and redness. You may also experience bruising, pain, numbness, and induration. This will normally last less than 5 days, and for some patients may last up to 14 days. If the symptoms worsen beyond 10 days or if other reactions occur, please contact the office.
  • You may elect to ice the area post treatment but must do so very carefully. Use an ice pack with the fabric side against the skin, or wrap a soft plastic ice pack in a wet thin towel. Apply the ice pack approximately 15 seconds on, and 15 seconds off. Icing too vigorously can cause frostbite and scarring. You may apply a cold compress to the area for 20 minutes per hour, and you may do this hourly for up to 3 days.
  • Do not participate in strenuous activity for 3 days following treatment
  • Sleep with your head elevated on at least 2 and preferably 3 pillows.
  • Do not scratch, pick or traumatize the area in any way. Do not massage or manipulate the injection site.
  • You may apply your normal skin care regimen and sunscreen normally.
  • Call the office if you have any difficulty swallowing, crusting or scabbing, asymmetry of your smile or any other unusual symptoms.

PRE-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS

  • You may not be treated if you are pregnant or nursing, have difficulty swallowing, nerve injury or weakness in the lower face, or an infection in the area. Inform your medical provider if you are on blood thinners, or have had procedures or surgery of your lower face or neck.
  • Avoid blood thinning medications or supplements before your treatment. Examples include aspirin for 10 days, ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil), other non-steroidal medications (Aleve) and Vitamin E, St. John’s Wort, and fish oil supplements for 5 days prior to the procedure, because these medications will make you more likely to bruise. If you have been prescribed one of these medications, ask your doctor before you stop taking it. Tylenol will not cause bruising and is preferred for the week prior to treatment. To avoid possible discomfort, you may take 1g of acetaminophen (i.e. Tylenol) one hour prior to your scheduled appointment.
  • Plan your procedure so that you can have 4 full days before returning to work or important social engagements if you are concerned about noticeable swelling.
  • Have acetaminophen (tylenol) and Zyrtec (an antihistamine) available at home for discomfort and itching that may result from the procedure.

Is It Safe to Undergo Kybella or Not?

Yes, it is safe to undergo Kybella because it is FDA approved and studies have been done showing that this treatment does work if done correctly and if you are a candidate for the treatment. Unlike other non-surgical medical procedures, Kybella also has some common side effects, including;

  • Tightness and discomfort around the treatment area
  • Facial muscle weakness
  • Uneven smile
  • Swelling

The J’adore Beauty and Aesthetics practitioners discuss pre-treatment and post-treatment precautions to avoid side effects. You’re not allowed to undergo Kybella if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have trouble swallowing, have an infection or medical condition near the treatment area.
