What is Belkyra/Kybella?
Belkyra™, known as Kybella™ in the US, is a highly effective fat dissolving injection that eliminates submental fat – also known as the double chin. It’s the first minimally-invasive procedure approved by Health Canada to permanently treat stubborn fat cells, helping to achieve a slimmer chin profile and contour.
How Does Lipodissolve/Belkyra Work?
Submental fullness can occur for a number of reasons. Weight fluctuations, aging and even genetics can result in accumulation of fat under the chin. Lipodissolve/Belkyra™ Toronto uses deoxycholic acid, a naturally-occurring molecule, to break down and dispose of unwanted fat cells at the treatment site.
Lipodissolve/Belkyra vs Surgical Treatment
Fat dissolving injections are ideal for women and men who want to get rid of their double chin without going under the knife. A non-surgical alternative to chin liposuction, deoxycholic acid administered through a tiny syringe offers a safer option with less downtime. Another added benefit of fat dissolving injections is a mild skin-tightening effect that occurs due to a boost in collagen production.
