Kybella Injectables in Raleigh, NC, is the only FDA-approved treatment that improves your profile by destroying the fat cells under your chin. It is an effective treatment to address submental fullness, which is commonly referred to as a double chin.
Kybella treatments have many benefits including:
The technique is minimally invasive. It consists of a series of small injections under the chin.
The results are intended to be permanent. Once fat cells are destroyed, your body cannot produce new fat cells.
The procedure is fast. Once the quick procedure is done, there is practically no downtime before you can return to your regular activities.
The injectable may help promote a more youthful appearance.
Benefits and results of this injectable treatment will vary for each individual and their goals.
Kybella/Fat Dissolving Injections in Raleigh, NC, works by taking a synthetic form of a naturally occurring molecule in the body, deoxycholic acid, that breaks down the absorption of dietary fat. When it is injected into the skin, it begins to destroy the fat cells so they can no longer store or accumulate fat.
Kybella is the right choice for many people who are looking to improve their appearance. If you fit into any of the following categories, you may want to look into it.
It is important to remember this injectable does not offer any skin tightening benefits.
