Kybella in Sioux City

Deoxycholic acid is the main ingredient in Kybella. You can naturally find this substance in the liver, which your body uses to emulsify fat in your diet. When used in an aesthetic context, this acid can help break down the fat under your chin. The creators of Kybella specifically designed this formula to treat fullness in the submental area.

Once your injections destroy your unwanted fat, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat. These long-term results are what makes it so popular to receive Kybella in Sioux City.

Since the breakdown of your fat cells is not reversible, you can expect not to need further treatment once you finish your sessions with Lacey. However, maintenance is key to ensuring your submentum remains smooth permanently.

While Kybella can destroy your current cells, changes in your overall weight can affect your submental fullness in the future. This is why keeping a healthy lifestyle post-treatment is so essential to sustaining your results. Hormones can also play a role in your chin’s fullness, which may require additional treatment should imbalances occur.

There are certain medications you should avoid before starting Kybella in Sioux City. Starting a week before treatment, avoid the following blood thinners:

• Aspirin
• Ibuprofen
• Ginkgo biloba
• Garlic oil
• Flax oil
• Fish oil
• Vitamin A and E
• Other essential fatty acids

Staying away from these medications and supplements can minimize the risk of bleeding or bruising in the treatment area. If you’re taking any of these substances due to a prescription, talk to your doctor before pausing any current treatments.

If you catch a cold or become sick with the flu in the days leading up to your appointment, get in touch with Lacey to reschedule. You should also reschedule if you develop an infection, blemish, or rash in the treatment area. If you have a history of dysphagia or difficulty swallowing, discuss this with Lacey during your appointment.

During your appointment, we can determine whether your excess submental fat is suitable for Kybella in Sioux City. Ideal patients have been dieting and exercising before receiving treatment, which rules out lifestyle changes that could reduce a double chin naturally.

You’re also a good candidate if your skin still has elasticity. While Kybella can treat a double chin resulting from fat cells, you should not use it to treat sagging skin in the area. For these concerns, Lacey recommends receiving SkinPen microneedling and/or PRP injections to help restore youthfulness to your skin.

Use a cold compress on the treatment area every 10 to 15 minutes multiple times a day to help reduce swelling and discomfort. For at least 3 days after each appointment, do not perform strenuous exercise. This can disrupt your body’s natural healing.

Do not scratch or pick at the injection sites. Any disruptions during the recovery process can affect your results. This includes massaging the treatment area.
