Kybella in San Mateo, CA
Kybella Treatment
Kybella is a treatment used to reduce fat under the chin, commonly known as submental fullness or a double chin. The injections contain a synthetic version of deoxycholic acid, which is a naturally occurring molecule that breaks down and absorbs fat cells. When Kybella is injected, it targets and destroys fat cells in the treated area. It prevents them from producing fat again. While it is primarily used for the chin area, it can also treat small pockets of fat in places like the jowls, armpits, and other localized fat deposits, depending on individual needs.
Kybella in San Mateo, CA, is ideal for individuals who want to reduce stubborn fat in specific areas without surgery. If you don’t want to undergo invasive surgery under your chin but have moderate to severe fat under it, then this treatment is right for you. You can typically expect visible improvements within 2 to 4 sessions, with results becoming noticeable after the first few weeks.
