Double chins, or submental fullness, can be caused by several factors, including genetics, diet, and age. Kybella treatment is a very effective method of treating double chin that’s non-surgical and can give you back your streamlined jawline within a few treatments.
By receiving a series of injections containing a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring stomach bile, your double chin will melt away within weeks. Schedule your free consultation with a board-certified practitioner for your Kybella treatment in Tarzana today!
Your Kybella treatment costs will vary depending on the number of treatments and injections you will need. Larger people typically require more vials of treatment, and how your body responds will dictate how many treatments you will need.
Many clients can expect about one to three sessions, with a four- to six-week break between treatments.
Because our practice covers purely cosmetic treatments, we, unfortunately, are unable to accept insurance. Despite this, we have a variety of financing options available. In addition, our center offers various packages and pricing for each treatment we provide.
Deoxycholic acid is used in Kybella treatments because of its ability to target and destroy fat cells at the body’s injection site. When the bile acid breaks down your chin’s fat cells, they can no longer store fat.
Visible results are not immediate because it takes time for your body to eliminate submental fat; however, if you avoid gaining excessive weight following your Kybella treatment in Tarzana, you can enjoy results for several years.
Kybella is the only injectable adult treatment approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to break up fat molecules permanently.
Deoxycholic acid is a synthetic reproduction of a salt found in human bile. It assists in permanently rupturing and destroying fat cell linings, causing their contents to empty and be removed by our immune cells.
When you come to the center for your Tarzana Kybella consultation, your practitioner will perform a basic test to determine if the fat in your neck and chin is submental. This is crucial because if the fat in your neck is not a submental type, it may pose a challenge for Kybella.
Your practitioner may use an injection or topical numbing solution before treatment to reduce pain during treatment. Next, an injection site grid of dots is transferred over your submental skin. Then, small amounts of Kybella are injected into the fatty tissue following the grid pattern.
The active ingredient in Kybella is deoxycholic acid, which is injected with a micro needle into the chin area. Our bodies already make deoxycholic acid to break up and absorb fat from our diets.
There is little discomfort, and no downtime is required because Kybella is a precise treatment that only targets chin fat cells. As a result, it causes no harm to the surrounding tissues.
Following your one to three treatment sessions, you and your practitioner will decide if your desired results have been achieved. Once you are satisfied, sessions stop and will no longer be repeated. You will start to see results within a few weeks after your initial session.
Your board-certified practitioner will assess the skin covering the submental fat to ensure your skin has proper elasticity and will contract after Kybella treatments in Tarzana.
Unlike liposuction, which can leave loose skin, Kybella gradually dissolves fat, allowing your dermis time to tighten subtly and naturally. Yet, if your neck and chin need further tightening to improve the look of your chin, we offer skin tightening solutions as well.
Kybella is not recommended for everybody, including adults 18 years and older who have lax skin and those who have less than modest fat layers beneath the chin. Also, some people have necklines that are sloped naturally, interfering with possible improvement.
Others that may not be right for Kybella include:
There are many cosmetic methods to consider for achieving smoother skin and a more toned, youthful look. Though, Kybella is regarded as one of the best options available for eliminating your double chin.
Kybella requires no invasive surgery, downtime is limited to a week or so, and treatments often take less than 30 minutes. Contact Glow Aesthetic Center for your free consultation.
With over 25 years of experience, our team of board-certified practitioners will carefully tailor a Kybella treatment plan in Tarzana to fit your goals and last for years.
