Kybella

This depends on the extent of your submental fat and how many injections are required. Typically, however, the Kybella® procedure will take between 15 minutes and half an hour. After the skin is prepared, Dr. Batniji only has to administer the product into your under-chin fat.

You will begin to see a difference after two to four treatments. However, certain patients may need as many as six sessions in order to obtain the results they want. Each session is generally done one month apart, and these can be scheduled to suit your needs.

Because Kybella® is minimally invasive and doesn’t require anesthesia, there is no need to alter your normal routine after treatment. You may go about your daily life as usual, including exercise.

While Kybella® melts fat and can provide significant results; it does not do it immediately. In most cases, you will begin to notice a difference after two treatments. The full scope of the results tends to become apparent over the proceeding weeks as the fat continues to dissolve.

Unlike many other treatments for submental fat, Kybella® ensures that it will not return. No additional treatments are needed after the first series of treatments. This ensures a more youthful chin permanently.

There is a potential for side effects with almost any treatment. With Kybella® injections, side effects are rarely serious. Most patients will only experience localized bruising, swelling, and soreness that go away on their own after a few days. In rare cases, patients may have excessive bleeding, temporary numbness, or difficulty swallowing.

You can go back to your job whenever you feel ready. Many patients choose to have the Kybella® treatment over their lunch break and can return to work right away.
