It is no secret that a double chin is one of the top trouble areas! Men and women both come to our St. Louis plastic surgery practice concerned with the unfortunate extra padding that forms just under their chins. Fortunately, at Renaissance Plastic Surgery, we have had tremendous success combatting submental (under the chin) fullness with Kybella®!

A double chin and unwanted submental fat are frustrating—and for many, it is downright discouraging. Hard to target and seemingly resistant to the best diet and exercise regimens, a double chin can persistently haunt one’s appearance regardless of all efforts. It makes sense, then, that so many individuals are ecstatic to learn that there is a new and effective way to combat this otherwise hard-to-treat area of fat accumulation. Since its introduction, Kybella has helped many men and women finally achieve the slim and defined jawline they have so long desired.

Kybella Explained

Kybella is the first (and as of now, only) injectable treatment designated to target, treat, and eliminate the dreaded double chin. Kybella takes advantage of deoxycholic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in our bodies, to permanently break down fat cells before they are processed, metabolized and eventually disposed of by the body. Once destroyed, the fat cells are gone for good—no longer storing or accumulating fat in this troublesome area.

Why Patients Choose Kybella

Previously, the only way to treat a double chin was through surgical procedures such as liposuction, a facelift or neck lift. While each of these treatments may be right for some individuals; others do not want to undergo a more invasive surgical procedure. As the first injectable treatment targeting submental fat cells to receive FDA approval, Kybella offers an exciting alternative. With Kybella, patients enjoy the benefits of fat reduction without the side effects that a surgical procedure can have. There is no anesthesia or sutures necessary. Kybella also has a far shorter recovery period.

Our patients enjoy how quickly and easy Kybella is. Kybella is performed at our St. Peters office and requires only 15 minutes to complete, after which, most are able to return to their day without further complications.

Why Patients Love Kybella

For those with a fuller chin, you are sure to understand just how difficult and highly resistant this area is to diet and exercise. Not easily treated through other methods, Kybella is able to achieve results that patients thought otherwise impossible. Our patients love how Kybella can:

  • Reduce the appearance of a double chin
  • Create a slimmer facial profile
  • Define a sleek jawline

More than just slimming the jawline, Kybella is also able to restore a more youthful and balanced appearance to the entire face.

Kybella Is a Beauty Insider Favorite

Since its introduction, Kybella has garnered much praise from patients and beauty insiders alike. Earlier this year, New Beauty Magazine hailed Kybella as “the under-the-chin fat eliminator”. Kybella has previously been included amongst Allure Magazine’s “Best of Beauty” list—honored as one of the year’s “Breakthrough” products.
