Debunking 6 Common Kybella Myths

Struggling with a double chin? For many people, excess fat underneath the chin is a struggle that just doesn’t seem to go away no matter how hard they exercise or how they you eat. If you struggle with extra submental fat, you need to try Kybella Injections available at Dermfx. In this blog post we will get to know Kybella more by debunking common myths!

MYTH: Kybella is temporary

When Kybella is injected into the submental area, it permanently destroys the fat cells. When those fat cells are destroyed, it is not able to store fat. Once you get your desired look, you do not need to continue getting Kybella injections.

MYTH: Kybella is painful

Kybella may feel a little uncomfortable but we provide ice and numbing cream to make the treatment as comfortable as possible. You may feel a stinging sensation when the Kybella is being injected but it should go away shortly after. If there is any discomfort, it is generally very mild.

MYTH: Kybella is only for people who are overweight

You do NOT have to be overweight to be a candidate for Kybella. If you have extra fat under your chin, you may be a good candidate for Kybella. Your provider will assess at your complimentary consultation to see if Kybella would be a great treatment option for you.

MYTH: Kybella is invasive

Unlike other treatments such as liposuction or surgery to get rid of submental fat, Kybella is a non-invasive and non-surgical treatment option. No incisions are necessary with Kybella, there will only be a couple of injections needed for the treatment.

MYTH: You can’t notice Kybella results

Kybella dramatically reduces fat under the chin and improves the appearance of the jawline in most patients. The amount of Kybella treatments you need may vary depending on the amount of submental fat present under the chin.

MYTH: Kybella can treat sagging skin under the chin

Kybella only treats the excess submental fat, NOT sagging skin. Kybella is NOT a skin tightening treatment. If you are interested in tightening the skin under your chin, check out Morpheus8 or Ultherapy!
