Kybella injections are cosmetic procedures that reduce fat in the neck and chin. This involves 20-50 injections under each chin. The Kybella's acid slows down the destruction of fat cells. The body then removes the fat cells in a matter of weeks. Typically, patients need multiple treatments to see optimal results. Kybella treatments may last from one to six weeks. Patients are required to wait at the least one month between each session.
Cost of Kybella-injections
Kybella injections are expensive. It all depends on the treatment area and how many you need. The average treatment can cost between $800 and $1,200. Dr. Preminger can help you make Kybella affordable by offering payment plans and financing options.
The average treatment session requires two to four injections. The amount and type of submental excess fat that you want removed will affect the number required sessions. Some patients may require up to six sessions. Your provider will bill you according to the number of vials that you use during each session.
To determine if you are a suitable candidate for Kybella, consult your doctor before you schedule a treatment. Kybella can be used for double chin correction in those who are unhappy with the appearance of their skin. The best way to reap the benefits of Kybella is to be in good physical, mental, and emotional health. Be sure to not become pregnant, not smoke, and maintain a healthy weight. Additionally, your skin must be elastic. If you have poor skin elasticity, you may be a better candidate for another procedure such as a neck lift.
Side effects of Kybella injections
Kybella injections may be safe, but side effects can occur. These include swelling around the injection site and bruising. Sometimes, patients experience pain, numbness or erythema. These side effects can be mild and usually go away within a few hours.
Some patients may experience a reaction to the deoxycholic acid used in Kybella injections. Although it is uncommon, some patients may experience difficulties breathing, swelling, skin reactions, or watery eyes. Patients are advised to avoid strenuous exercise and not to do any strenuous activity for at least 2 days following treatment. Kybella injections may cause bruising. Arnica can reduce this.
Kybella injections may need to be repeated depending on the amount of fat deposits. Each session lasts between 20 and 30 minutes. Treatment sessions are usually scheduled at least 4 to 6 weeks apart. Patients may feel mild discomfort after one to two treatments. These are usually temporary and can be treated with ice, or a cold compress.
Candidates for Kybella injections
Kybella is cosmetic treatment that reduces the appearance or fullness around the eyes. It is safe and effective for a variety of skin types and ages. The procedure is only available to patients who are at least 18 years. The procedure involves 12 to 20 injections over a period of 6 months. The risk of infection is low and scarring is not possible.
Kybella injection candidates should be healthy and stable in weight. They should also have realistic expectations about their results. People with significant submental fullness may not be good candidates, as they may look heavier or older. People with significant submental fullness may want to avoid surgery. Kybella injections could help them achieve the look that they want, without complications.
Kybella injections destroy fat cells under the chin so they can't grow back. Side effects may occur after the treatment takes several weeks. After a few days, the side effects should disappear and you will see a more attractive contour.
