Kybella® Injections in Latham, NY
Kybella® Injections
Our Kybella® treatments in Latham, NY, offer a non-surgical solution to reduce submental fat, commonly known as a “double chin.” This treatment contains deoxycholic acid, a substance naturally found in the body that aids in breaking down and absorbing dietary fat. When injected into the submental area, Kybella® targets and destroys fat cells, metabolized and naturally eliminated by the body over time. The treatment effectively minimizes the appearance of a double chin and can be customized to target varying levels of fat under the chin.
Kybella® in Latham, NY, provides an excellent non-surgical option for individuals looking to reduce stubborn fat under the chin. Ideal candidates are those who have moderate to severe fat below the chin but prefer to avoid surgical procedures. Initial results may take a few weeks to appear, and patients typically need several sessions, spaced about a month apart, to achieve their desired outcome. The results are long-lasting once the fat cells are destroyed, as these cells cannot store or accumulate fat again. To explore how Kybella® can help you achieve a more contoured jawline, book an appointment with Ehden Medical Aesthetics today.
