Belkyra™ injections contain deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance that breaks down fat. When injected into the chin area, it destroys fat cells, which can reduce the appearance of a double chin. The body naturally eliminates the treated fat cells over time. Results vary, and side effects are possible. For more information about this treatment, reach out to us at Project Skin MD® Ottawa today.
Ideal candidates for Belkyra™ treatment include those with moderate to severe submental (excess) fat beneath the chin and looking for a non-surgical solution. Generally, candidates should be in good health and hold realistic expectations for results. Book a consultation with us to understand if Belkyra™ is right for you.
As a non-surgical treatment, Belkyra™ provides a less invasive alternative to traditional methods for double chin reduction. The active ingredient, deoxycholic acid, breaks down fat cells for a more contoured profile. The procedure is generally quick with minimal downtime.
A Belkyra™ treatment session usually only takes a few minutes. The exact duration may vary based on individual factors and the specific treatment plan.
While some may experience mild pain or stinging sensations at the injection sites, others report minimal discomfort—it all depends on the person. To enhance comfort, we may apply topical numbing agents before treatment.
There is typically little to no downtime after treatment, and you can resume your daily activities.
Like any cosmetic medicine procedure, Belkyra™ may have potential side effects and risks. These experiences can include mild swelling, bruising, or redness in the treated area. The effects are generally temporary and resolve on their own. To mitigate risks and promote safety and efficacy, ensure qualified professionals like ours administer your Belkyra™ injections.
Generally, just one Belkyra™ session is required to see results. However, the number of treatments can vary among individuals based on factors like the amount of submental fat, personal treatment goals, and overall response to the injections.
To determine how many sessions are right for you, a thorough consultation with our specialists can help tailor the treatment plan accordingly.
Belkyra™ treatment typically results in a reduction of double chin fat. Results are gradual, often noticeable immediately after the first treatment, with continued improvement over time as the body eliminates the fat cells. Individual responses to treatment can vary, so it’s essential to set realistic expectations about results. Consulting with us can help assess your goals and determine the expected outcomes based on your unique characteristics.
Belkyra™ injections are considered long-lasting. Once fat cells in the treated area are destroyed and eliminated by the body’s natural processes, they typically do not return.
However, experiences may vary between individuals, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can contribute to prolonged results.
Belkyra™ is an effective stand-alone treatment but can also work well with other cosmetic procedures. Combining treatments depends on individual goals, overall health, and professional recommendations. To understand possible treatment possibilities and if they’re right for you, book a consultation with us today.
