What is submental fullness and how does Kybella™ help?

Submental fullness refers to fat cells that accumulate in the chin area. It can impact a wide range of adults, including both men and women, and is usually an area quite resistant to diet and exercise. According to a survey by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, nearly as many consumers are bothered by submental fullness (68%) as by lines and wrinkles around the eyes (71%). The tendency to store fat in the chin area is influenced by several factors, including age, genetics and weight gain.

When injected into this subcutaneous fat by an expertly trained physician such as Dr. Shaun Patel, Kybella™ causes the destruction of fat cells. Once destroyed, those cells cannot store or accumulate more fat. In fact, the desired response is often achieved in 2 to 4 treatment sessions and after that re-treatment is not necessary or expected.

Many patients notice an improved chin profile in as few as 2 treatments, spaced one month apart, while in some cases as many a 4-6 treatments maybe required. Your Kybella™ treatment will be customized by Dr. Patel to meet your specific aesthetic goals.
