July 24, 2023

Kybella®, the breakthrough cosmetic treatment, has revolutionized the world of facial aesthetics with its ability to target and reduce stubborn submental fat, commonly known as the "double chin." As experts in facial injectables and cosmetic treatments, we at Becker Cosmetic are excited to introduce you to the wonders of Kybella®. In this informative blog post, we will delve into the definition, safety, and mode of action of Kybella®, providing valuable insights into this transformative procedure. Join us as we explore how Kybella® can help reshape and contour your chin and jawline, giving you a more defined and youthful appearance.

Understanding Kybella®

Kybella® is an innovative cosmetic treatment designed to address stubborn submental fat commonly called the "double chin." This non-surgical injectable is a game-changer in facial aesthetics, providing an effective and safe solution for individuals seeking a more sculpted and defined chin and jawline.

How Does Kybella® Work?

Targeting Submental Fat

Kybella® contains a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body responsible for breaking down dietary fat. When injected into the submental area, Kybella® specifically targets and destroys fat cells, reducing the appearance of the double chin.

Gradual Fat Elimination

Following the Kybella® injection, the body's natural metabolic processes kick in, gradually eliminating the targeted fat cells. During a span of several weeks, the treated region gradually undergoes a subtle metamorphosis, leading to a more defined and sculpted chin and jawline.

Is Kybella® Safe?

Kybella® is an FDA-approved treatment, and extensive clinical studies have demonstrated its safety and efficacy in reducing submental fat. The synthetic deoxycholic acid used in Kybella® injections mimics the body's natural fat absorption process, making it a safe and well-tolerated option for facial rejuvenation.

Advantages of Kybella® Treatment

Non-Surgical and Minimally Invasive

Kybella® offers a non-surgical alternative to the traditional chin and jawline contouring procedures. The minimally invasive injections mean no incisions, scarring, or lengthy recovery periods, allowing you to resume your daily activities with minimal downtime.

Customized Treatment

Each Kybella® treatment is personalized to address the individual's unique needs and desired results. Our experienced practitioners at Becker Cosmetic will assess your facial anatomy and develop a customized treatment plan to achieve your aesthetic goals.

Natural-Looking Results

The gradual elimination of fat cells by Kybella® ensures natural-looking and subtle results. As the targeted fat diminishes, the contours of your chin and jawline become more defined, enhancing your facial harmony and profile.

Long-Lasting Effects

Once the fat cells are destroyed and eliminated, they do not return. The results achieved with Kybella® are long-lasting, provided you maintain a healthy lifestyle and weight.
