3 Differences Between Kybella & Chin Liposuction

Tired of trying to hide your double chin? At Akin Aesthetics & Wellness in Riverton, Utah, we see many men and women every year who are interested in treating their double chin and are finally ready to do what they can to be rid of it for good.

During many of our consultations with these patients, we’re often asked about the differences between Kybella and chin liposuction. All client should be well informed of all available options before making a decision about what procedure to get. Here are the 3 key differences between Kybella and chin liposuction.

Kybella Injections are Non-Invasive

Kybella® is an injectable solution that can melt away chin fat and reduce the appearance of a double chin within weeks. Many of our guests are excited to learn that treatment with Kybella® is simple and easy. Because of its non-surgical approach, Kybella® treatments are safe for almost anyone with a double chin.

Chin liposuction is a surgical procedure and requires a surgical facility, incisions, and anesthesia. During liposuction, a plastic surgeon will create tiny incisions in 2-3 areas of the patient’s chin which he will use to insert a cannula to remove fat from under the chin. Then they close the incisions with small sutures. Chin liposuction requires a recovery period, and patients will experience swelling and bruising as a result.

2. Kybella Injections Require No Downtime

A huge benefit of Kybella® treatments over chin liposuction is that they require no downtime. In fact, each treatment takes about 20-30 minutes and can be completed over a lunch break, allowing you to get back to work the same day.

Because chin liposuction is surgical and invasive in nature, it will require anesthesia. When anesthesia is administered and you will be required to have substantial downtime after chin liposuction.

3. Kybella® Results Occur Over Time

Kybella® results are not immediate. Most guests usually see results within 4 to 6 weeks after their initial treatment. This is because your body will need time to break down and eliminate the fat cells in your chin. Even though results can take a little longer to show, the results are amazing and permanent! As long as you don’t gain weight in the future, your new chin will continue looking great!

Results from chin liposuction are permanent and can be seen immediately, with continued improvement occurring over time as the swelling goes down.
