Kybella Chin Contouring FAQs
Are Results From Kybella Permanent?
The deoxycholic acid substance causes the elimination of fat cells. This is different from shrinking cells with weight loss. You do not grow more fat cells, so the only way a double chin could return is if existing fat cells in the area expand.
Is Kybella An Alternative To Chin Liposuction?
In many cases, Kybella can be a wonderful solution to submental fullness. Before treatment, we discuss what treatment can do, and what it cannot. A thorough assessment of your skin will determine if Kybella will achieve your desired result. When there is a great deal of fat and sagginess beneath the chin, liposuction or skin removal surgery may be the most appropriate solution.
What Is Kybella Recovery Like?
The mild swelling and tingling that occur after Kybella treatment should last only a few days. The injected area may feel slightly “full” as the solution is absorbed. Redness at injection sites will diminish over several hours.
How Do We Know That Kybella Is Safe?
Researchers have studied deoxycholic acid, the primary ingredient in Kybella, for eight years before FDA-approval was obtained. Over 1,000 people participated in clinical trials, and no safety issues or severe side effects occurred.
