About the Treatment
Restore definition to your jawline. BELKYRA™ is a non-invasive procedure that destroys fat cells in the area underneath your chin, reducing and in some cases completely eliminating excess fat and providing a more youthful and contoured shape to your face.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Do you offer complimentary consultations?
Yes! Before any treatment, we offer a complimentary consultation during which we discuss your concerns and goals, outline treatment options, and develop a customized treatment plan.
- Do I need a referral from a doctor?
No, a referral is not required to meet with our clinic’s doctor.
- Who is a good candidate for this treatment?
Patients who are concerned by a double chin or an undefined facial contour may be good candidates. However, talk to your physician if you have had any medical conditions involving the neck area, experience difficulty swallowing, have bleeding problems, are pregnant, or are breastfeeding, as Belkyra is not recommended for people with these concerns.
- How does this treatment work?
A quick and easy treatment, BELKYRA™ involves injecting deoxycholic acid into the area underneath the chin. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring molecule that helps your body break down and absorb dietary fat. In destroying fat cells, BELKYRA™ reduces and even potentially eliminates the fat in this area.
- How many sessions will I need?
Most patients benefit from several sessions, generally two to three. This non-invasive treatment offers dramatic and permanent results without the need for surgery.
- What should I expect in terms of downtime?
Some patients do experience pain, swelling, numbness, redness, or bruising at the injection site. However, these side effects should disappear within a few days to weeks.
