Kybella Injections in Athens, Lake Oconee, & Gainesville, GA
Kybella® (deoxycholic acid) is the first FDA-approved injectable treatment to improve moderate to severe submental fat, commonly known as a double chin. This aesthetic condition can affect men and women of any age, and body size isn’t always a factor. Though a double chin creates no health concerns, at Georgia Skin Cancer & Aesthetic Dermatology, we understand that how you look on the outside can significantly affect your confidence and how you present yourself to the world. That’s why we are the first dermatology practice in the Athens area to offer this groundbreaking treatment to our patients.
How Do Kybella Injections Work?
Kybella is formulated with deoxycholic acid. When injected into the subcutaneous fat under your skin, Kybella destroys the fat cells in the area. Since deoxycholic acid naturally occurs in your body, it is eventually absorbed and processed by your body. Each treatment takes only 20 minutes and doesn’t require anesthesia, making them quick and easy to perform. You will see steady improvement throughout 2-6 treatment sessions. The total number of sessions needed will depend on the amount of submental fat being treated.Â
Is Kybella Permanent?
If you’re interested in Kybella but are worried the results won’t be permanent, have no fear, Kybella treatments can permanently resolve your double chin. When injected into the area, it destroys your fat cells, and they won’t be able to regenerate. Once you achieve your desired results, no more treatments are necessary. However, it is essential to note that new fat cells can form if you put on weight after treatment, so maintaining a healthy lifestyle is key to continued success.
Am I a Good Candidate for Kybella?
Good candidates for Kybella are healthy adults with moderate to severe submental fat who want to see a change in their appearance without surgery. It is not an option for those looking to lose weight or who aren’t committed to a healthy lifestyle. Having good skin elasticity will help your skin bounce back after the procedure. It is also important to note that while Kybella will provide noticeable results for almost everyone, results vary from person to person. Contact us to find out if Kybella is right for you.
Why do We Like Kybella?
With just a few sessions of this non-invasive treatment, Kybella can provide the same results as surgery with less risk and no recovery time. At Georgia Skin Cancer & Aesthetic Dermatology, we believe in offering the very best and safest treatments available. That’s why treatments with Kybella – and all cosmetic injectable treatments we offer at our practice – are only performed by one of our board-certified physicians, ensuring the highest level of safety and efficacy for our patients.
