Have you become an expert in the “art of disguise”? By that, do you hide your double chin behind scarves, mock necks, or ingeniously draped fabric? If so, you may be well-suited to Kybella®, planned and administered skillfully by the team of skin care professionals at Mitchell Dermatology. They have helped patients in Perrysburg, Fremont, and Northwest OH restore the freedom to wear what they like and the confidence that comes with a healthy, trim, and youthful appearance.
The “submental” region refers to that area between the head and the neck. Submental fat is particularly resistant to weight loss techniques, such as proper diet and regular exercise. That’s because patients of all sizes and shapes can have chin fat due to factors outside of their control – genetics or age-related hormonal changes. Traditionally, patients with double chins were limited to invasive surgical treatments to resculpt a defined jawline and restore a youthful facial shape.
Now, Mitchell Dermatology patients do not have to resort to risky and invasive procedures to look and feel more like themselves again. Kybella® is the first (and only) FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to diminish moderate to severe “submental fullness.”
Instead of surgical cutting, suctioning, and repositioning, fat can be “melted” noninvasively within the treatment areas with Kybella® injections. Here are a few of the details that are “good to know” about this no-downtime, low-risk treatment:
It is important to note that Kybella® does not tighten loose skin. We have other treatments for that! To find out the best treatment to shed your double chin, schedule a consultation at Mitchell Dermatology. 419.871.3737 (Perrysburg) and 419.871.3636 (Fremont).
