Kybella® in Commack, NY
Kybella® is a FDA-approved injectable treatment for reducing the appearance of submental fullness “double chin.” This non-surgical procedure involves breaking down fat with deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance. Once injected, Kybella® targets and kills fat cells in the treated area, which are then eliminated naturally through the body’s lymphatic system. As these fat cells are permanently removed, the results are long-lasting. In addition to treating the chin area, Kybella® can also address stubborn fat in other small areas, making it a versatile option for clients seeking a more contoured appearance. Glow Wellness Care in Commack, NY, offers Kybella® as part of their comprehensive aesthetic services.

How does Kybella work?
Kybella® contains deoxycholic acid, a substance that the body naturally produces in order to break down dietary fat and absorb it. When injected into areas with unwanted fat, such as under the chin (submental area), Kybella® targets and destroys fat cells; subsequently, the body eliminates them naturally through the lymphatic system. Since the fat cells are permanently eliminated, fat cannot be stored or accumulated in the treated area, providing long-lasting results. For optimal results, multiple treatment sessions are usually recommended.

FAQs
Who is a good candidate for Kybella®?
Kybella® is ideal for adults with moderate to severe submental fullness (double chin) who prefer a non-surgical solution. Individuals with good skin elasticity typically achieve the best results.
When will I see the results from Kybella®?
The results of Kybella® treatments are usually visible after two to four sessions, with full results appearing within six months as the body gradually eliminates the destroyed fat cells.
How long do Kybella® results last?
Kybella® results are permanent because the treated fat cells are destroyed and cannot return. As soon as these fat cells are removed, they are unable to store fat. Maintaining a stable weight helps preserve the results. Most patients enjoy long-lasting improvements after completing their treatment plan.
Is there any downtime or side effects with Kybella®?
Kybella® typically has minimal downtime, but some side effects are common. After treatment, you may experience swelling, bruising, redness, or tenderness in the treated area, which usually resolves within a few days. Some patients might also feel numbness or firmness at the injection site, but this will only last for a short time. Most people can return to their normal activities shortly after treatment.
What should I do before and after this treatment?
Before Kybella® treatment, avoid blood-thinning medications such as aspirin and ibuprofen to prevent bruising. Discussing your medical history and any medications with your provider is also important. The area treated should be iced after the treatment to minimize swelling and avoid strenuous activities for a few days. Follow your provider’s specific aftercare instructions for the best recovery and results.
What can I expect during Kybella® treatment?
During a Kybella® treatment, your provider will clean the treatment area and may apply a numbing agent for comfort. This procedure involves injecting tiny amounts of fat directly into the fat under your chin. The process usually takes about 15 to 20 minutes. It is possible for patients to experience mild discomfort, swelling, or warmth at the injection site, but these effects typically subside shortly after the session.
