The best med spa for Kybella
near me in Orlando, FL

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed for adults. It specifically targets and treats moderate to severe fullness under the chin, also known as submental fullness.

Everyone's pain tolerance is different. While some discomfort can occur during Kybella injections, we use numbing agent to minimize any pain. Patients often report a hot sensation following the injection, which subsides often within the hour.

Kybella's key ingredient is deoxycholic acid, a natural compound that breaks down dietary fat. When Kybella is injected into the chin's subcutaneous fat, it dissolves fat cells, which the body then naturally eliminates.

Kybella offers a less invasive and sometimes more convenient alternative to liposuction for many individuals. It doesn't require downtime or post-surgical care. However, most patients will require multiple Kybella treatments, while liposuction is normally completed in one treatment and may have more dramatic results. Patients who have a substantial amount of chin fat may be better off choosing to receive a chin liposuction treatment.

he amount of Kybella injections required varies based on the size and severity of the double chin. Typically, two to four treatment sessions are needed, though some individuals may require up to six sessions.

The results of Kybella are long-lasting. After treatment, the destroyed fat cells cannot store fat and are permanently removed from the body. But, additional treatments may be required if new fat cells form due to weight gain.

Kybella is suitable for most adults with moderate to severe submental fullness, provided they are in overall good health and have no difficulty swallowing. It is not recommended for those who are pregnant, nursing, or have a nerve injury or weakness in the lower face.

Please keep in mind that swelling from Kybella can last upwards of a month.

Some of our patients prefer the results of Morpheus8 or chin filler injections over Kybella. Morpheus8 can reduce subcutaneous fat while tightening your skin, while Kybella does not tighten skin. Chin filler can also create a tighter looking chin and jawline appearance from your chin's added projection. Liposuction is also a possibility, though we do not offer invasive treatments such as liposuction.

Patients travel from across Florida to receive their Kybella treatments at our Orlando and Sanford, FL practices.

You should be prepared for significant chin swelling for at least two weeks after your Kybella treatment. You may also experience some bruising, redness, or numbness around the injection site. It's advisable to schedule your treatment when you can allow for potential downtime if needed.
