Reducing a Double Chin without Surgery

Does your jaw or chin lack definition due to fatty tissue under the chin? The ‘double chin’ is a common problem for both men and women, impacting the overall appearance of their neck and face. While liposuction surgery can remove excess fat tissue, it also requires recovery and downtime. Another option is Kybella injections, the non-surgical option to reduce a double chin.

What Is Kybella?

Kybella is a synthetic form of a bio-acid that breaks down fat cells in the body. This substance attacks the cellular walls of fat cells, destroying them completely. When injected into fatty areas, the fat cells disintegrate and the fat inside the cells is absorbed into the bloodstream. Since fat cells do not regenerate, once they are gone, they do not return.

How Does It Work?

Kybella injections are designed specifically to help with small fatty deposits like those that create a double chin. A few injections are placed in the area by a plastic surgeon and the bio acid goes to work on destroying the fat cells. Over several weeks, the chin and neck area begin to shrink in size as the fat cells disappear. Depending on the extent of the fatty tissue, additional injections may be needed to obtain the desired effect. Except for slight tenderness or possible bruising after the procedure, there are few known negative side effects of this procedure.

If you are interested in slimming down your chin and neck area to improve your appearance, contact a local plastic surgeon that offers Kybella injections. In just a few weeks you can begin noticing a more defined chin and profile for a more attractive and youthful appearance.
