Do you have some extra fullness beneath your chin? It could be something you have had your whole life, something that developed over the years, or just something you hadn’t noticed until recently. Well, this fullness has a name. It is a condition called submental fullness, though it is also commonly referred to as a “double chin.”
What is Submental Fullness?
Submental fullness is a frustrating and common condition defined by extra fat along the chin and jawline. It’s also known as the 'double chin' or 'turkey neck.' Submental fullness is often resistant to exercise and healthy eating, so cosmetic treatments like Kybella offer the most efficient way to remove excess fullness.
What is the purpose of Kybella?
Kybella is an injection that’s clinically proven to dissolve extra fat in the chin and neck area. At the same time, Kybella tightens and smooths the skin above the fat, creating a slimmer, more contoured jaw and neck appearance.
How does Kybella work?
Kybella’s main ingredient, deoxycholic acid, exists naturally in the body to break down and absorb fat. When injected into the double chin, Kybella blocks cells from storing and accumulating more fat, while permanently destroying existing fat.
What results can I expect from Kybella?
Kybella delivers dramatic results without surgery, pain, or downtime. Most patients receive 2 to 6 treatments over six months, with visible results after the first few injections. Results can last permanently if a healthy lifestyle is maintained.
