How To Reduce Swelling After Kybella®
Have you ever wished for a non-surgical treatment to reduce chin fat and define your profile? Then look no further than Kybella®, a non-surgical procedure that targets fat under the chin for long-lasting and natural-looking results. At Rejuve Med-Spa, we provide Kybella® treatment with experienced injection specialists and a luxury spa environment.
What is Kybella®?
Kybella® is an FDA-approved injectable that targets fat under the chin (submental fullness) to give you a more defined profile. Kybella® utilizes a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid to gradually break down fat cells in the chin, leaving surrounding cells untouched. Once Kybella® breaks down the cells, your body will naturally flush them out. The result is reduced chin fat and a natural-looking, slimmer jawline.
How To Reduce Swelling After Kybella®
After treatment with Kybella®, you will likely experience some swelling which typically fades within two to three weeks. You should avoid strenuous exercise for at least 48 hours to minimize swelling. To help reduce swelling, you can gently apply cold packs to your chin after treatment. You may then use a warm compress after the first few days.
Another effective method of reducing swelling is to wear a chin strap shortly after your procedure to apply pressure to the area. Lightly massaging the treated area and taking over-the-counter pain medications may also help reduce swelling. You can contact our team if you have any questions during your recovery.
