Having a double chin is one problem that has haunted people for generations. Whether you eat a lot, sleep the wrong way or have grown old enough for your neck to start accumulating extra fat, a double chin is a problem that has been craving solutions for years. Yet, it was only since 2016 that an easy non-surgical procedure for it came into the market. Before this, the only way to get rid of a double chin was to undergo surgery.
Yet, now there is an option of having to get rid of your double chin without a surgery, simply using the Kybella injection to your double chin, which will dissolve the fat and give you a, nice and healthy jawline and chin. Here is a list of some fast and some not so fast facts about Kybella and a double chin that you have always wanted to know.
- Double chin has a scientific name and it is known as sub mental fullness.
- The only other way pre Kybella to get rid of a double chin was undergoing surgery known as liposuction, which required a few days’ recovery time and tended to be expensive and left scars.
- Kybella is a naturally occurring molecule which can help metabolize fat which has a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid (gallbladder acid).
- This was created by Kythera Biopharmaceuticals which is a company based in California and creates cosmetic products
- The injection melts away the fat in your double chin.
- The melting though, is not like putting a cube of butter in the microwave and seeing it liquefy, it’s a little more than that. The fat cell membranes are disrupted by injection. As soon as the molecule in the injection hits the cell membrane, it destroys it, releasing the fat contents and as a result allowing the body to metabolize the fatty contents.
- Kybella is an FDA approved treatment for double chin.
- Surprisingly enough, this kind of treatment has been made use of outside the US for decades.
- The idea actually was born in France, with some people making their own cocktails to inject.
- The drug is available to almost all kinds of people who suffer from a double chin, irrespective of their age limit. The only people who cannot make use of this are individuals under the age of 18.
- It is also important for doctors to ensure that the double fat that the patient is suffering from is indeed a result of fat and not some other underlying medical condition.
- Kole evaluated and personally injects all Kybella patients himself.
