WHAT IS FAT REDUCTION?

Reduce the bulge! When stubborn fat just won’t budge with diet and exercise, Kybella and CoolSculpting can take you further.

Kybella (deoxycholic acid) injections work by breaking down and permanently destroying fat cells specifically in the submental area under the chin to reduce fullness and improve jawline contour.

CoolSculpting uses controlled cryolipolysis (fat-freezing technology) to target and permanently eliminate stubborn fat cells in areas such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, upper arms, and under the chin.

Both Kybella and CoolSculpting provide non-surgical, targeting fat reduction by permanently eliminating stubborn fat cells, helping contour and define areas like the chin and body with little to no downtime.

WHAT WE DO

Our philosophy at Skin Bio is tailored towards providing a balanced, natural look for our patients using Kybella and CoolSculpting.
During your Kybella or CoolSculpting consultation, our Medical Practitioner will provide a thorough history and physical examination assessing your body composition (fat, skin, muscle, bone). We will tailor an individual treatment plan based on your needs and goals.
During your Kybella procedure, our Medical Practitioner will cleanse the skin and apply a topical anesthesia numbing cream for comfort. Next, our Medical Practitioner will inject small amounts of Kybella into targeted areas under your chin strategically placed to ensure the best outcome. After injections, ice may be applied to minimize potential swelling. The number of vials needed will vary from person to person, and the procedure takes approximately 30-60 minutes.
During your CoolSculpting procedure, our Medical Practitioner will cleanse the skin and apply a clear gel pad to the treatment area. This creates a barrier between the cooling panel and your skin. Next, our Medical Practitioner will attach the CoolSculpting applicator onto targeted areas of your body strategically placed to ensure the best outcome. You’ll feel a slight sucking sensation as the applicator adheres to your body. At this time, you may experience sensations of pulling, tugging, mild pinching, and intense cold at the treatment site. These sensations subside within 6-8 minutes as the area becomes numb. During the treatment you will be able lay back and relax. After the applicator is detached, the area is massaged to break up the treated fat cells and enhance the fat reduction. The number of applicators needed will vary from person to person, and the procedure takes approximately 35 minutes per area.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Most patients experience minimal downtime after treatment. After Kybella injections, you can experience injection-site redness, swelling, or bruising, which may last a few days to a week.
Immediately after the CoolSculpting applicator is detached, the skin will appear flushed but this quickly subsides within a few hours. Swelling and bruising is not common.
After Kybella and CoolSculpting treatments, you may immediately return to work. No exercise is permitted for the rest of the day, and you may resume exercise the following day. Some patients experience tenderness and numbness in the treated area, this is normal and subsides with a few days to weeks.
Results can be seen between 4-12 weeks after treatment. Please allow 2 weeks for swelling or bruising to subside. One treatment permanently reduces up to 20-25% of fat cells in the treated area. You may need 3-6 treatment sessions spaced about one month apart to reach your desired results and get the most out of your fat reduction experience.

COOLSCULPTING FAQs

Am I a candidate for CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting is a fat-reduction treatment for men and women who want to get rid of stubborn pockets of fat in certain areas of their body that are resistant to diet and exercise. CoolSculpting is not a weight loss procedure, instead it helps sculpt your body in certain areas. You’ll find clothes fit better and feel better on you.

CoolSculpting is not recommended if you have a history of cryoglobulinemia or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. Tell your Nurse Practitioner if you have any medical conditions including recent surgery, pre-existing hernia, and any known sensitivities or allergies.

CoolSculpting is ideal for fat reduction for targeting areas on your lower body. If you want to get rid of a double chin, you might want to consider Kybella.

Kybella is an FDA approved injectable solution that can enhance your profile by getting rid of excess fat under your skin (submental fullness). This type of injectable is a synthetic deoxycholic acid that breaks down fat and improves fat absorption.

By injecting Kybella into specific areas along your jawline and under our chin, fat cells immediately begin to shrink and break down. Over the following few weeks, you should notice a visibly more defined profile.

Yes! While results with both CoolSculpting and Kybella are permanent, fat deposits can come back if you gain weight.

You might need additional follow up treatments depending on how your body responds. You may need to treat the surrounding area–such as your flanks or upper stomach if you had your lower stomach done- to provide even better results.

NO! CoolSculpting is also FDA-cleared to provide tightening to loose skin, and improve the appearance of lax tissue with submental area treatments.
