What is double chin elimination?

Valencia Medical Center uses FDA-approved Kybella injections to achieve double chin elimination. Kybella is a nonsurgical treatment that destroys unwanted fat cells without surgery or significant downtime, which lasts a lifetime. It’s a simple, highly effective treatment that produces dramatic contouring.

How does double chin elimination work?

Kybella works to improve facial contours by destroying fat cells under your chin. The active ingredient in Kybella is deoxycholic acid, a naturally-occurring substance in the body that breaks down and absorbs fat.

Once destroyed, the treated cells can’t accumulate fat; your body eliminates them over time. The results are long-lasting if you maintain healthy lifestyle habits and ideal body weight.

Is double chin elimination right for me?

To determine if you’re a candidate for double chin elimination, the Valencia Medical Center team reviews your medical history. They examine your chin and the area under your chin, discuss your treatment preferences, ask about your aesthetic goals, and let you know what to expect during treatment with Kybella.

If the skin is in overall good condition, without any sagging skin issues, Kybella could be your best choice. Other skin treatments for sagging skin and severe skin laxity are available.

Candidates for Kybella are patients who may have an excess of fat under the chin and have ruled out alternative treatments like liposuction as an option. The best candidates are also aware of the time commitment required for this treatment: your best results may require six treatments over six months to achieve.

Kybella is a permanent solution for achieving a slimmer and more sculpted facial appearance and an excellent alternative to surgery and other invasive treatments for double chin elimination. 

What can I expect during double chin elimination?

During the procedure, you rest comfortably while your provider cleans and numbs the treatment areas. They carefully and gently inject Kybella into targeted tissues containing excess fat cells. Each injection only takes a few minutes to complete.

You may develop temporary tenderness, swelling, or redness at the injection sites. 

Most patients have significant improvements in facial contours and their chin profiles after completing 2-4 treatment sessions spaced about a month apart.
