5 Benefits of Kybella® Treatment
Most of us have something we’d like to change about our appearance. But if you have a double chin, it can feel especially frustrating. This cosmetic issue is impossible to hide. Plus, it can make you look heavier and older than you actually are.
Fortunately, you’re not stuck with that excess fat under your chin. At Hanami Medspa in Fort Worth, Texas, Elaine Phuah, DO, MBA, FACOI, offers a targeted treatment to eliminate double chins. It’s called Kybella® and it gives you a convenient way to banish those unwanted fat cells for good.
Is it right for you? To help you figure that out, let’s look at some of the key benefits:
It’s effective
Kybella is an injection-based treatment. When you choose it, Dr. Phuah injects the Kybella solution into targeted locations under your chin. Then, Kybella goes to work.
It uses a synthetic version of the naturally occurring molecule deoxycholic acid. This acid breaks down fat. When it comes into contact with the fat cells under your chin, it destroys them. Your body then starts the process of flushing out the now broken down cells.
Because Kybella was specifically formulated to destroy fat cells under your chin, it’s highly effective. And Dr. Phuah can repeat treatments, spaced a month apart, until you reach the chin of your dreams.
It’s convenient
Because Kybella is a minimally invasive treatment, it can fit seamlessly into your life. The actual treatment process usually only takes about 15 minutes.
You might have a little bruising or swelling right afterward, but it should dissipate in a week or two. And you don’t have any prescribed downtime to worry about. If you want to, you can get your Kybella treatment and head back to work or the next activity on your agenda.
It’s permanent
Kybella doesn’t just affect the fat cells it treats temporarily. Instead, it permanently destroys them. That means that as long as you maintain your results by preventing the creation of new fat cells, they’re permanent.
It’s FDA approved
You don’t need to worry about whether or not Kybella is safe because it was approved by the FDA in 2015. It earned that approval after being tested on more than 1,000 people at more than 70 sites across the continent.
Most people are good candidates
If you’re over the age of 18 and in relatively good health, you’re probably a candidate for Kybella. That means this versatile treatment can help a broad variety of people living with a double chin.
