How The treatment Works
Say Goodbye to your double chin!
Double Chin Fat Removal Treatment Options
Chin fat can be annoying, unsightly and can deflate your self esteem.
Having a procedure to reduce double chin fat can make you feel more confident and comfortable with the shape of your chin and neck.
At Cosmetic Laser Solutions MedSpa, we offer two choices to remove a double chin.
- AGNES RF Laser is our preferred method for fat removal as we can target areas of fat in a more precise manner.
- Kybella® is an FDA-approved formula that is injected into the chin fat to dissolve the fat cells.
Both options provide permanent results.
AgnesRF is an FDA approved device that liquefies fat with radiofrequency energy.
Both options are for adults with submental (under chin) fullness and will permanently destroy fat cells to improve your profile.
Services are supervised by our board-certified plastic surgeon and Laser Clinical Director.
How does Chin Fat Removal work with AGNES RF?
Utilizing AGNES RF technology, a micro-insulated needle penetrates the skin and eliminates fat deposits by selectively heating the tissue with radiofrequency energy.
The fat cell is permanently eliminated.
The beauty behind this method is the ability to not only remove chin fat but to contour and reshape it for a more chiseled appearance.
Additionally, while getting ride of stubborn fat cells, the energy from the radiofrequency procedure has a tightening effect so you will not have skin laxity. Collagen production is increased as well so improvement continues over 90 days. Fabulous!
We highly recommend Agnes RF as an alternative to the Coolscuplting CoolMini treatment.
The disadvantage of the Coolmini device is that it’s limited by the handpiece size.
However, with AGNES RF, there are no limitations to the size of the area being treated. In addition, AGNES RF includes a skin tightening benefit that further improves the appearance of the treatment area.
How does Kybella Work?
An alternative to AGNES RF is Kybella®. Kybella® treats under chin and neck fat by injecting a compound called sodium deoxycholate.
This substance naturally occurs in the body and aids in breaking down and absorbing fat throughout body areas.
By strategically injecting this molecule throughout the chin, you can naturally eliminate submental fullness without the need for plastic surgery or liposuction.
Treatment with Kybella involves multiple injections into the chin area. It is a little uncomfortable, but tolerable.
Kybella causes the fat cell membrane to rupture. Post treatment there is swelling which subsides over a 10 day period.
Each treatment session includes multiple small injections under your chin area and can take 20-30 minutes.
For optimal results, most patients have 4-6 treatments spaced about 2-4 weeks apart.
