Get That Unwanted Extra Chin Out of There! You’ve been working out and are feeling great about your body, but that stubborn area beneath your chin won’t budge. It’s discouraging, but don’t get frustrated! There is a treatment that can help. Kybella is a nonsurgical injection treatment that specializes in targeting the double chin. There’s a naturally occurring type of bile acid in humans called deoxycholate acid that helps dilute and dissolve the fats we ingest. This bile mixes with the fats we eat every day, making them usable while eliminating what our bodies don’t need. The Kybella treatment uses a chemical nearly identical to deoxycholate acid. This synthetic chemical copy is injected directly under the chin where people have moderate or excess amounts of fat. The acid does the rest, destroying the fat cells located in the area and decreasing the chance for them to be stored there again. Before you undergo the procedure, you must first qualify for the treatment and meet with our expert team to find out which treatment is right for you. They will make sure that you’re healthy and

qualified for Kybella. It’s important to discuss all of your medical history and any other cosmetic procedures you may have had on your upper body and face. Be sure to tell us if you plan on becoming pregnant, are with child, or are nursing, as the effects of Kybella in these circumstances are still unknown. Treatments involve 20–30 injections across the timeline and can sometimes go up to 50, depending on the patient. The number of injections and treatments varies from person to person. While it’s a quick and easy procedure, you may experience swelling and redness after Kybella, so it’s advised not to get treated before any major events to give yourself time to heal and recuperate. The treatment works quickly — patients receive up to six treatments with about a month between each — and the results can last a lifetime. Eager to find out if Kybella will work for you? Call Beautique Medical Spa at 956-664-1234 today for more information!
