The results of Kybella injections last a lifetime, which is one of the most significant benefits. While individual physiologies differ, most adults are no longer able to produce new fat cells by the time they reach 25. A large percentage of fat cells in the treatment areas are destroyed by the deoxycholic acid in the formula. You get rid of dead fat cells by flushing them out with your lymphatic system over time.

There are fewer risks with Kybella (deoxycholic acid) injections compared to surgery for fat removal. Kybella injections, however, do have side effects, and swelling following an injection is one of them.
 
During the process of breaking down fat cells in the chin, deoxycholic acid may cause your skin to become inflamed. Over a few weeks, the swelling should gradually decrease. Kybella swelling is one of the normal side effects, but it can be uncomfortable and an overall inconvenience. Fortunately, the swelling is only temporary. A month is the average recovery time for Kybella. As a result, it’s recommended that you wait at least one month between treatments.

Injectable Kybella eliminates the appearance of a double chin caused by excess submental fat and is FDA-approved. These procedures are performed on patients who wish to achieve a slimmer chin profile without undergoing liposuction.
 
Dietary fat is broken down in the body by deoxycholic acid, Kybella’s main active ingredient. The procedure hence boasts a high success rate in people with mild to moderate fat beneath the chin.
 
Kybella was extensively studied before it was released in the US market, as with all FDA-approved drugs. With a qualified injector, Kybella is a remarkably safe treatment that destroys fat cells without damaging skin or other tissues.
 
It was previously necessary to undergo chin liposuction to remove excess submental fat. Most patients will be required to make a small incision beneath their chin, although some may need to make one behind each ear as well. However, surgery requires anesthesia, recovery, and additional risks, which may deter some people. As a result, the arrival of Kybella has been well received by doctors and patients alike since it offers an alternative to surgical procedures to eliminate the appearance of double chins.
 
With a safe procedure and permanent results, Kybella can be an excellent option for anyone who wishes to repair the appearance of a double chin.

In general, you can expect to see your ideal results within one to seven months. As part of your initial consultation, we will discuss your cosmetic goals, evaluate your current aesthetic, and recommend how many treatment sessions you will need in order to achieve your desired results. It is generally recommended that you undergo one or two treatments if poor posture or sagging skin is contributing to your submental fullness. Submental fullness is an accumulation of fat beneath the chin, commonly referred to as a “double chin.” It can be something you’ve always had genetically, or it can develop as you age or gain weight.
A mild or moderate amount of excess fat can cause submental fullness that requires three or four treatments. You will need five or six treatment sessions if your submental fullness is caused by excessive fat. Approximately four to six weeks separate each treatment session, and it may take up to six weeks afterward for all the fat to disappear.
Boosting your lymphatic system’s efficiency is the only way to see your final results faster. Dehydration can be overcome by drinking enough hydrating fluids that your urine becomes pale. It may not feel like you’re thirsty, but until your urine turns pale, you have not consumed enough fluid.
