KYBELLA® in South Bend to Outwit a Double Chin!

A double chin consisting of excess fat underneath the chin, in addition to being a source of frustration, can be even more daunting in its immunity to change from a healthy diet and rigorous exercise. Why is the double chin such a formidable foe in the face of a healthy lifestyle? Double chins consist of submental fat that simply doesn’t dissipate despite a nutritious diet and regular fitness regimen. This is one of the main reasons that individuals seek the aid of a plastic surgeon.

A traditional or mini facelift are facial plastic surgery procedures that address excess fat in the lower portion of the face, including a double chin. As discussed earlier, however, not everyone is ready for invasive measures or the recovery time often associated with surgical treatments.

That’s where KYBELLA® comes in. KYBELLA® contains an active ingredient referred to as “deoxycholic acid.” This naturally occurring molecule in the body helps to target submental fat and destroy it. Among the many benefits of KYBELLA® as an alternative to surgery are:

1. It’s FDA approved, safe, and effective
2. Only minimal downtime is required
3. Treatments only take a few minutes to administer
