KYBELLA is a formulation of deoxycholic acid that mimics the
same substance that is naturally produced by our bodies in order to help absorb
fats. It works by destroying the tissue’s cell membrane when injected. By
properly injecting KYBELLA into submental fat, the fat cells are destroyed.
Once the cells have been destroyed they can never again store or accumulate
fat.
During initial treatment, the patient receives a number of
injections in the targeted region, which takes about 30 minutes. After
treatment is complete, the patient is asked to ice the treated area and take an
over-the-counter pain reliever. The patients typically need two to three rounds
of injections about 30 to 60 days apart to reach the desired effect.
Kybella really works. Every patient with a double chin due
to fat in what we can the preplatysmal fat pad will see a significant reduction
in that fat without surgery. Recovery after Kybella treatment is much
quicker and easier than after the alternative, liposuction.
After the procedure, the primary side effect you will notice
is swelling. This can be noticeable for as little as two days to as long as
three weeks and is greater in those with larger volumes of treated fat and
higher doses. Older patients, with more skin laxity, will feel that the
swelling takes longer to resolve than those with younger and/or tighter skin.
Other than that, there is some tenderness but patients don't
usually talk about it on their follow-up visit other than to be reassured that
it is normal, since it is fairly mild and mostly only if the area is touched or
prodded. Small areas of firmness, if they occur, resolve quickly.
It’s liposuction without the surgery.” With Kybella one can
achieve the desired effect of chin liposuction with a series of simple,
non-surgical treatments.
KYBELLA treated group of 514 patients compared to the
placebo group (508 patients) as measured by both clinician and patient ratings.
In addition, visual and emotional impacts of submental fat (happy, bothered,
self-conscious, embarrassed, looking older or overweight) were evaluated using
a 6-question survey and 79% of 1 and 2-grade composite responders reported
satisfaction after 12 weeks post final treatment compared with 33.6% of
patients who received placebo.
KYBELLA can cause serious side effects including nerve
injury in the jaw that can cause an uneven smile or facial muscle weakness and
trouble swallowing. The most common side effects are swelling, bruising, pain,
numbness, redness, and areas of hardness in the treatment area.
Kybella results are permanent: once the adipocytes (fat cells)
die, they do not grow back. Any remaining cells will get larger when you put on
weight and smaller when you lose weight, just as all the fat cells in your body
will. Because there are fewer cells to become larger in the treated area, you
will not put on as much fat in the treated area if you gain weight.
