Chin Lipo vs. Kybella® for a Chiseled Chin
If you’re struggling with stubborn fat under your chin, you’re not alone. Many people deal with a double chin despite a healthy diet and exercise. Chin liposuction, also known as submental liposuction, is an effective and permanent way to remove fat and sculpt the jawline. At Blue Wolf Transformations, we specialize in FunSculpting for precise fat removal with minimal downtime. But how does it compare to other treatments like Kybella®? Let’s break it down.
What is Chin Liposuction by Funsculpting?
Chin liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure that removes excess fat from under the chin and along the jawline. At Blue Wolf Transformations, we use FunSculpting, which involves a vibrating cannula that breaks up fat cells for easier and more efficient removal. Results can vary based on individual factors, and a consultation is recommended to determine the best approach for each patient. This method allows for smoother results, less trauma to surrounding tissues and excellent skin tightening.
Unlike traditional liposuction, FunSculpting provides:
More precision for permanent sculpting of the jawline
Only 1 session needed with faster recovery times
Less swelling and bruising compared to manual techniques
What is Kybella®?
The active ingredient in KYBELLA® is synthetic deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, KYBELLA® destroys fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin.
KYBELLA® provides:
Permanent results
Deoxycholic acid destroys fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin
Non surgical series of injections
ChinLipo vs. Injectables
How Much Does Chin Liposuction Cost?
At Blue Wolf Transformations, we offer chin liposuction for $3,000, a one-time cost that provides permanent fat removal. Kybella® treatments, while non-surgical, can add up quickly after multiple sessions.
Recovery and Aftercare: What to Expect
Recovery from chin liposuction is relatively straightforward. Most patients experience some swelling, bruising and soreness, which subsides within a couple of weeks. Here’s what to expect:
Compression Garment: You’ll need to wear a chin strap for about a week to help reduce swelling, tighten skin and support healing.
Downtime: Most patients return to normal activities within a few days, though some swelling can persist for 1-2 weeks.
Final Results: Visible improvement is immediate, but full results take a few months as swelling fully subsides.
