Welcome to Skinly Aesthetics

Are you looking to reduce your double chin or enhance the appearance of your chin profile and jawline? You may be an excellent candidate for Kybella, the revolutionary non-surgical treatment designed to eliminate submental fat and refine your facial contours.

Kybella is the first and only FDA-approved non-surgical injectable treatment that targets and destroys fat cells beneath the chin, leading to a noticeable reduction in submental fullness. Commonly referred to as a “double chin,” submental fullness contributes to an older and heavier appearance in both men and women.

At Skinly Aesthetics in New York City, Dr. Schwarzburg offers expert Kybella injections tailored to your unique needs, providing a safe, effective, and minimally invasive solution for achieving a more defined and sculpted facial profile. Whether you’re looking to diminish a double chin, or enhance your jawline our personalized Kybella treatment ensures results that align with your aesthetic goals.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How Does Kybella Work?

    Kybella is an innovative treatment that uses deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body, to target and break down fat cells. When injected into the submental or other targeted area, Kybella disrupts the cell membranes of the fat cells, causing them to release their contents. The body then naturally processes and eliminates these destroyed fat cells, leading to a permanent reduction in fat in the treated area. Once the fat cells are destroyed, they cannot regenerate, although the remaining fat cells can expand with weight gain.

    How Do You Develop a Double Chin?

    A double chin, medically known as submental fat, is a common condition where a layer of fat forms beneath the chin. This can be caused by a variety of factors including genetics, weight gain, and aging. Despite being a natural part of the body’s aging process, a double chin can be a source of self-consciousness for many individuals. Unlike other areas of the body, submental fat can be particularly resistant to diet and exercise. This makes treatments like Kybella an appealing option for those looking to achieve a more defined jawline and neck profile without undergoing surgery.

    Who Is a Good Candidate for Kybella?

    Kybella is best suited for adults over 18 with a noticeable double chin, good health, and realistic expectations regarding the non-surgical nature of this procedure. Ideal candidates have good skin elasticity and are not pregnant or nursing. Those considering Kybella should have no allergies to its components and should consult with Dr. Schwarzburg for a personalized assessment.

    What Are Contraindications to Kybella Injections?

    Consultation with a professional is crucial before deciding on Kybella. Contraindications include pregnancy, nursing, active skin infection in the treatment area, bleeding disorders, and a history of severe allergic reactions to Kybella’s components. It is also not recommended for individuals with minimal fat under the chin.

    What to Expect During Kybella Treatment?

    Your Kybella journey begins with a thorough consultation where Dr. Schwarzburg reviews your medical history and examines your facial structure. During the treatment, a local anesthetic is applied, and Dr. Schwarzburg marks precise injection points on the skin. The Kybella solution is then injected, with the entire process taking about 15-20 minutes.

    What Is the Aftercare After Kybella?

    Post-treatment, Dr. Schwarzburg will provide ice packs to minimize swelling and discomfort. Over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like Ibuprofen or Naproxen may be recommended to further alleviate any tenderness. Patients can resume regular activities shortly after treatment but should monitor the treated area for a few days to ensure proper healing.

    How Long Is the Downtime?

    Most patients experience minimal downtime, with possible swelling and bruising resolving within a few days to weeks. However regular activities can be resumed within a few days after treatment, making Kybella a convenient option for those with busy schedules.

    What Are Kybella Side Effects?

    Common side effects include swelling, bruising, temporary numbness, and mild irritation at the injection site. Rarely, more serious side effects like nerve injury or under-skin lumps may occur. However, all possible complications fully resolve with proper follow-up care.

    How Soon Will I See the Results?

    Results from Kybella treatments gradually become visible over weeks to months. Initial swelling may mask the effects, but noticeable improvements usually appear around three to four weeks post-treatment, depending on individual factors like metabolism and adherence to aftercare guidelines.

    Are Results Permanent?

    Yes, the results of Kybella are permanent because the treated fat cells are destroyed and cannot regenerate. However, maintaining a stable weight is crucial to ensure long-lasting results.

    How Many Treatments Will I Need?

    The number of Kybella treatments you may need varies based on individual needs and goals, as well as the amount of submental fat present. Clinical studies have shown that a single Kybella session can reduce up to 20-25% of submental fat. However, to achieve optimal results, you may need between two to six sessions, spaced about a month apart. The specific number of sessions needed depends on factors such as the initial amount of fat, the desired outcome, and your individual response to the treatment.

    Is Kybella Painful?

    You may experience mild discomfort during Kybella injections, often described as a brief sting or burn. Dr. Schwarzburg applies strong lidocaine cream to the skin and sometimes injects lidocaine directly into the skin for smooth experience. After the injections over-the-counter painkillers will help with post-procedure discomfort.

    Is Kybella Safe?

    Kybella has been FDA-approved for submental fat injections since 2015 and is considered safe when administered by an experienced professional. The success of the treatment largely depends on the expertise of the injector, making it crucial to choose a qualified specialist.

    What Are Kybella Before & After Results?

    Kybella treatments not only reduce submental fullness but also boost confidence and self-esteem. Patients often experience a significant improvement in their facial profile, leading to enhanced self-assurance and a positive impact on daily interactions and overall outlook.adaptability in cosmetic treatments.

    How Much Does Kybella Cost?

    The cost of Kybella treatments ranges from $600 to $3,000 per session, depending on factors such as the clinic’s location, the provider’s expertise, and the number of vials needed for treatment. Urban areas like New York City tend to have higher prices due to increased demand and higher living costs.

    Using Kybella Beyond the Double Chin

    While Kybella is primarily known for treating submental fat, its versatility extends to other fat-prone areas as well. It can help achieve a youthful, chiseled look by minimizing neck fat and eliminate back fat and the notorious “armpit puff” for a smoother silhouette. 

    Kybella is also effective in slimming down legs by targeting the knee region and pesky thigh pockets. Additionally, it can sculpt beneath the buttocks for a firmer appearance and tackle minor stomach bulges for a more contoured look. 

    This adaptability makes Kybella a valuable option for addressing various stubborn fat deposits, providing a comprehensive solution for those seeking overall body contouring without surgery.

    Will I Have Loose Skin After Injections?

    A common concern with Kybella is whether it will cause loose skin after fat elimination. While Kybella destroys fat cells, it doesn’t directly affect skin elasticity. The results depend on your skin’s ability to contract and conform to your new facial contours. Those with good skin elasticity typically see smooth, firm results. However, if your skin is less elastic, additional treatments may be needed.

    What Additional Treatments to Consider With Kybella?

    To enhance the results of Kybella, you can consider several complementary treatments. Morpheus8 radiofrequency therapy is an effective option to tighten loose skin after Kybella. For those with more significant fat deposits under the chin, CoolSculpting Mini can be used to further reduce the double chin. Additionally, jawline fillers can sculpt and add definition to the jawline after deoxycholic acid eliminates the fat. Combining these treatments with Kybella can lead to more comprehensive and long-lasting aesthetic improvements, ensuring a refined and contoured facial profile.
