Kybella

Are you looking for a non-surgical solution for getting rid of a stubborn double chin? Trusted aesthetic specialist Dr. Mona Hardas understands how submental fullness can impact your confidence and appearance. She is proud to offer Kybella®, an innovative injectable treatment that effectively eliminates double chin fat without surgery.

Dr. Mona has helped countless patients in the Detroit area achieve a slimmer, more defined jawline with Kybella®, providing natural-looking results with minimal downtime.

What is Kybella®?

Kybella® is an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to target excess fat that causes submental fullness, commonly known as a double chin. The active ingredient in Kybella® is synthetic deoxycholic acid, which works to break down fat cells. The damaged fat cells are then eliminated from the body via natural biological processes to reveal a more sculpted jawline.

Kybella® is an FDA-approved double chin treatment that has shown to be safe and effective when injections are performed by a qualified medical provider like Dr. Mona.

What to Expect During a Kybella® Treatment

To begin, the treatment area will be sterilized with alcohol, and a topical numbing agent will be applied to minimize discomfort. Dr. Mona will assess your chin and neck area to identify and mark the optimal injection sites. Ten to thirty injections will be administered using a fine needle. A dressing will be placed over the treated area before you leave the office.

What to Expect After Kybella® Injections

Kybella® recovery time is minimal. After the procedure, mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites is normal. These post-treatment symptoms usually peak after two days and dissipate within two to four weeks. Some patients may experience temporary numbness or tenderness in the treated area. While there is little to no downtime, avoiding strenuous activity for the first 24-48 hours is recommended.

Kybella® Results

Results become noticeable within four to six weeks as the body naturally eliminates the damaged fat cells. With multiple sessions, patients experience a gradual improvement in their chin profile and overall facial aesthetics.

Most patients require a series of two to six treatments, typically spaced one month apart, for optimal results. Once the desired aesthetic is achieved, no further treatment is necessary, as Kybella® provides permanent fat reduction.
