Kybella® In Holladay, UT

Kybella® is suitable for adults who are generally healthy and want to reduce fat under the chin or other small areas without surgery. Ideal candidates have localized fat deposits that do not respond to diet and exercise. It is also great for those seeking a minimally invasive solution without incisions or recovery downtime.

You can expect to notice visible results within four to six weeks after your first session. It may take multiple sessions to reach optimal results, depending on your goals and how much fat you want to remove. Most patients see results with 2-4 treatments, though some may require up to 6 sessions.

As soon as fat cells are destroyed and removed, they do not regenerate. Keeping a healthy lifestyle and avoiding significant weight fluctuations will keep Kybella® results permanent. A healthy diet and regular exercise can help you maintain a toned body for a long time.

There is minimal downtime with Kybella®. The most common side effects are swelling, bruising, redness, and mild discomfort in the injection area. Most patients can return to their regular routines the next day, though some prefer to rest for a few days to allow swelling to subside.

Prepare your body to minimize the risk of side effects and ensure a smooth recovery before Kybella® treatment. Avoid taking blood-thinning medications or supplements, like aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, or vitamin E, for at least one week before your appointment.

After your Kybella® session, follow your practitioner’s post-treatment instructions carefully for the best healing and results. Cold compresses applied to the treated area during the first 24-48 hours can ease swelling and discomfort. It’s also recommended to avoid strenuous activity, extreme heat, or alcohol consumption during this time, as these can exacerbate swelling.

Kybella® is administered using a fine needle during the treatment. The session usually takes about 15-20 minutes, and you may experience mild stinging or warmth during the injections. A customized treatment plan will be discussed beforehand to ensure your goals are effectively and comfortably met.
