The FDA has now approved Kybella treatment. With this approval, Kybella becomes the first and only non-surgical treatment to have an FDA approval for the reduction of double chin.

    Keith Leonard, President and CEO of Kythera, says that Kybella is a fantastic and salient solution that can be tailored to meet the unique aesthetic goals of a patient for an enhanced chin profile. Higher rates of patient satisfaction are typically achieved because of the non-invasive nature of Kybella treatment.

    Leonard says: “For the first time, people have access to an FDA-approved, non-surgical treatment for submental fullness, a condition that can negatively impact the overall appearance of the face and can result in a person feeling older and heavier. With Kybella, physicians can offer a clinically-proven treatment that is customized to the patient and their treatment goals for an improved chin profile.”

    Procedure

    Kybella treatment is administered through injections directly into the specific fatty tissue below the chin. The treatment program will be customized according to the unique condition of the patient. One treatment session will typically last for about 20 minutes. Two to four treatments are usually required to achieve visible results. A maximum of six treatments of Kybella may be administered as the patient’s needs.

Dr. Edwards says it is critically important to choose the right surgeon to receive an advanced injectable solution such as Kybella.

    The advantage with Kybella is that the procedure avoids all the typical risks and complications that may be associated with a surgery. The downtime is minimal and the patient does not have to undergo a prolonged treatment or recovery process.
