A Comprehensive Guide for Injectable and Non-surgical Treatment of Belkyra

Many people make light of having a double chin, but the truth is far from humorous. It is, however, not something someone must accept. If you are concerned about the extra skin or fat behind your chin, you should consider if Belkyra therapy is suitable for you.

Belkyra is the first and only injectable therapy authorized by Health Canada and the FDA for adults to enhance the look and profile of moderate to severe fat below the chin.

What is Belkyra?

Belkyra is a non-surgical injectable body contouring method used to reduce the amount of extra fat behind the chin. It reduces the number of fat cells and fat loss by injecting a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid into the afflicted area. The method is widely used since it is non-invasive and has a high level of satisfaction.

How Belkyra Works?

Belkyra contains deoxycholic acid. This naturally occurring chemical in the body assists in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. Belkyra targets and destroys fat cells in the region beneath the chin, restoring shape to the neck and jawline. In-office treatment sessions are typically finished in 15 to 20 minutes.

Who Is a Good Candidate for The Treatment?

Belkyra is used to treat double chins ranging from mild to severe. Belkyra is not recommended for those with a lot of sagging skin or many double chins.

A double chin can also be caused by factors Belkyra cannot address, such as fat deep in your neck or a big neck or jaw muscle.

How Much Belkyra Cost?

The cost varies according to the volume of injectables necessary to obtain the desired treatment effect. Most patients require 2-4 sessions, which cost between $1200 and $1800 for each treatment, depending on the volume of Belkyra necessary to address their sub-mental fullness.

What Are the Steps and Procedures?

The treatment is performed as an outpatient procedure. To alleviate pain, the doctor will apply a numbing medication to the injection site. The number of shots required entirely depends on your circumstances. 

It may take up to six sessions to achieve the desired effects. Patients must wait at least a month between sessions.

What are the Side Effects of Belkyra?

Following the procedure, the patient should anticipate to be red and puffy, as well as bruised. Swelling generally lasts two weeks, although it can last up to four weeks in exceptional cases.

Many people develop patches of hardness that require 6–8 weeks to resolve. Numbness in the treated region is often frequent and progressively improves over several months. The majority of folks aren’t troubled by it.

Very infrequently, swallowing difficulties, skin ulcers, and injury to deeper tissues have been recorded.

When will the Results be Visible?

The outcomes will be evident four to six weeks after the surgery. Before knowing the ultimate outcomes, the patient must allow the body to use the acid and then remove the extra fat cells.

There is no chance of fat developing again in that region because the fat cells have been eliminated. As long as the patient follows a good diet and exercises regularly, there is minimal chance of acquiring a double chin in the future, even though the fat cells have been removed.
