When people stare at their reflection, many are self-conscious about their double chins. Kybella, fortunately, is the solution. It is an injectable treatment approved by the DFA to eliminate submental fat under the chin.
Uneven jawline and extra fat behind the chin are common problems for which there is now no conventional treatment available. In contrast to many other types of fat, there is no single workout regimen or diet that can help you shed weight.
Although increasing weight may provide you with a little more padding under your jaw, many individuals who lead a healthy lifestyle battle with chin issues; developing submental fullness can occur even when you eat healthful foods, exercise consistently, and lead an active lifestyle. Additional factors, including heredity and the natural aging process, may contribute to developing a fluffy appearance.
The good news is that you must not be forced to live with your chin problems permanently. Kybella’s ground-breaking operation is the first and most effective approach to reducing excessive facial fat in the area beneath the chin.
The active ingredient in this treatment is deoxycholic acid, a substance created by the body on its own. This substance, when injected, promotes the absorption of nutrients and dietary fat, resulting in weight loss. Deoxycholic acid binds with the fat cells under the chin, causing them to break down and aiding the body in the elimination of these fat cells.
Kybella vs. Liposuction
Currently, there are two fundamental therapeutic choices available to patients. Kybella & submental Liposuction are two available procedures. You could wonder which is preferable. The conclusion will be determined by your particular case and your mindset toward surgery.
Both Liposuction and Kybella are effective at removing fat. Liposuction is a procedure that eliminates fat by extracting the fat cells out of the body. Kybella, also known as deoxycholic acid, is a fat-burning medication that works by directly destroying fat cells. However, neither Liposuction nor the Kybella treatment alone will give you the enhanced neck profile you desire.
Instead, following fat removal, the outcome is determined by whether your skin heals back or whether your body rewraps to a healthier profile. You must understand that this procedure will take around three months to complete.
An in-office examination with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon is beneficial in this situation. The doctor will need to check the skin on your neck to determine whether or not you are a suitable candidate for either therapy.
If your skin is excessively loose, the skin will hang free following fat reduction, and you will not be pleased with the results. Alternatively, if your skin is too loose, a neck lift may be more appropriate.
Recovery Time
Kybella may need several therapy sessions, but they’re generally brief, and most patients can return to their normal activities immediately following the procedure. The treatments may be swollen and bruised, but these side effects are usually minor and disappear rapidly.
On the other hand, Liposuction necessitates the scheduling of a day off the workplace for the surgery, and you must take it easy for several days afterward. Although neck liposuction is not regarded as a particularly intrusive procedure, it is still a surgical procedure.
Kybella’s Advantages and Disadvantages
Kybella is the first injectable therapy for excessive submental fullness to be licensed by the FDA. To reduce under-chin fat, your cosmetic surgeon will provide a series of targeted injections containing an active component that “disrupts” the fatty cellular membranes, enabling the fat cells to break down and discharge their fat reserves over time.
Advantages of Kybella: Fixing your double chin using Kybella is a non-invasive technique that does not require an anesthetic. Procedures are completed in less than 30 minutes, and most clients feel very moderate redness and inflammation, allowing them to come back to work that very same day or the next.
Kybella is a long-term therapy for under-chin fat because the cells are left permanently incapable of storing fat in the future after receiving the injection. The results become visible over time, progressively enhancing your appearance to the point where no one will be able to tell you’ve had it done unless you specifically tell them.
Cons of Kybella: Results are produced gradually, and it may take several months and numerous treatments until you get the look you desire with Kybella. Because the specific fat is eliminated over time, your cosmetic surgeon will require substantial experience and understanding of the neck to forecast and attain the aesthetic you desire.
Neck Liposuction’ Advantages and Disadvantages
When you have your double chin fixed with liposuction surgery, fat is eliminated through multiple small incisions throughout a session that can last between one to two hours. Your cosmetic surgeon will gently remove fat tissue from your neck and under-chin region using a thin cannula and a piece of extraction equipment. This will help to sculpt the look of your under-chin area.
Neck Liposuction Advantages:
Neck lipo is a “one-and-done” cosmetic surgery operation. It may be completed in a single session, resulting in significant results that are visible as soon as post-treatment swelling subsides. Your plastic surgeon will carefully shape your chin with precision to get the results you desire.
Neck liposuction Disadvantages:
Even though neck liposuction is a less invasive surgery, you still need to be sedated throughout the process. When you get neck liposuction, you will have some inflammation, and you’ll need to rest for a few days after the treatment before returning to your usual activities. It may also be required to wear a compression bandage for several days following therapy.
While both neck liposuction and Kybella treatments effectively eliminate unsightly fat pockets beneath the chin, the decision ultimately depends on personal choice and the amount of recovery time you are willing to sacrifice.
The Kybella procedure is the best choice for you if you want to undergo many treatment sessions with little or no downtime.
Nonetheless, suppose you desire quick results with a single procedure and don’t mind undergoing minor surgery and missing 10-14 days of work. In that case, Liposuction should then be your choice of weapon since it is the most effective.
