Kybella Fat Dissolver

Are you bothered by a double chin? Due to genetics, age, or weight gain, men and women carry excess weight also known as submental fat along the jawline. Much like how excess weight is held in other areas of the body such as the thighs and waistline, these stubborn areas are difficult to lose no matter how much you diet and exercise. If you’re looking to remove stubborn fat and reshape your chin profile without surgery, Kybella may be the solution you’re looking for. 


At SkinMD, we’re excited to offer Kybella which is a revolutionary, FDA-approved, injectable treatment specifically designed to eliminate submental fat and reshape your chin for a more defined and youthful appearance. As a nonsurgical solution to liposuction and facelifts, Kybella’s primary ingredient is Deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of fat cells. Once the fat cells are destroyed, the body gradually flushes them out through its excretory and lymphatic system. Fat cells are diminished and can not regenerate, leading to noticeable results within 4- 6 weeks that last a lifetime!

Benefits of Kybella:


Personalized Treatment: Our expert team at SkinMD will assess your needs and provide a customized treatment plan. The number of treatments may vary from patient to patient, depending on the severity of the target area.

Non-invasive and Quick: You can achieve the same results without general anesthesia and incisions. Administered in office by a trained Kybella specialist, each treatment consists of multiple small injections under the chin. The procedure is relatively quick, between 15-20 minutes making it convenient for those with busy schedules.

Minimal Pre-treatment: Surgical solutions require strict pre-treatment guidelines to prepare your body along with post-treatment to manage care and sensitivity. At most, with Kybella, it’s recommended to avoid foods high in sugar and sodium before treatment.

Minimal Post-treatment Downtime: Patients can expect some tenderness, swelling, and possible bruising, which usually subsides within a few days. It’s best to avoid vigorous physical activity for 48 hours, apply an ice pack for any discomfort and stay hydrated. While results last a lifetime, many see this as an opportunity for a fresh start so it’s best to incorporate or continue a healthy diet and exercise routine to maintain results and confidence.

It usually starts with the hair. Most men come into SkinMD because they’ve noticed a receding hairline or a thinning crown and realized they aren't ready to let go of their youthful edge. But once we’ve addressed the hair with an FUE Hair Transplant , many of our patients realize that their hair was only one part of the equation. If you’ve restored your hair but your face still looks tired, haggard, or soft in the jaw, you’re only halfway to the finish line. Modern aesthetics for men isn't about looking pretty; it’s about looking capable, energized, and sharp. It’s about ensuring that the face you see in the mirror matches the energy you still feel inside. Improving Professional Perception by Softening Facial Fatigue In the professional world, appearance matters more than we like to admit. Deep forehead furrows or those 11 lines between the brows don’t just make you look older—they make you look stressed, angry, or permanently exhausted. When you’re leading a meeting, closing a deal, or interviewing for a new position, you want to look like the person who has everything under control. This is where Brotox, or Botox for men, comes in. The goal of this treatment is never to freeze your face into an expressionless mask. Instead, we use precisely measured doses to soften those deep ruts while maintaining enough movement to look natural. We focus on the areas that make you look tired, such as the crow's feet and the heavy lines on the forehead. It’s the difference between looking like you have had work done and looking like you just had the best eight hours of sleep of your life. It’s a subtle shift that changes how people perceive your mood and your vitality. Sculpting a Masculine Profile with Jawline and Chin Contouring While women often seek fillers for high cheekbones or plump lips, men have a different anatomical goal: a strong, defined jawline. A chiseled jaw is the universal hallmark of masculinity and physical fitness. Unfortunately, as we age, we naturally lose bone density and our fat pads shift, leading to a soft jaw or the beginning of jowls. This can make even a fit man look like he carries extra weight in his neck. Using structural fillers like Juvederm Voluma, we can literally sculpt a stronger chin and a sharper mandibular angle. By reinforcing the bone structure of the jawline, we create that sought-after superhero profile. This isn't just about vanity; it’s about restoring the masculine proportions that time has taken away. It’s a 30-minute procedure with zero downtime, providing an immediate improvement that can last up to two years. It defines the transition between your face and your neck, which is often the first place to show signs of aging in men. A Tailored Approach to Male Aesthetic Maintenance At SkinMD MedSpa in Dearborn, we understand that men have different skin and different aesthetic goals. Male skin is generally thicker, more vascular, and has different muscle density than female skin. You want results that are effective but discreet. You want to walk into the office on Monday morning and have people think you look great, without them being able to put their finger on exactly why. If you’ve already taken the leap to restore your hair, don't stop there. Frame that new hairline with a face that looks just as rejuvenated. We offer a private, professional environment where we can discuss your goals and build a maintenance plan that fits your lifestyle. From laser skin polishing to subtle injectables, we help you stay at the top of your game. Ready to sharpen your look? Call us at (248) 662-5544 to book a consultation at our Dearborn, MI office. Let’s talk about a plan that fits your goals and keeps you looking as sharp as you feel.

The Chemical Approach with Medical-Grade Peels Chemical peels are one of the oldest and most reliable tools in dermatology, but they have come a long way since the days of peeling like a lizard for two weeks. Modern formulations allow us to target specific layers of the skin with incredible precision. The VI Peel: The Heavy Hitter for Acne and Scars If you’re struggling with active acne or the memory of acne in the form of pitted scars and dark spots, the VI Peel is our gold standard. It’s a medical-grade peel that reaches the deeper layers of the dermis to stimulate true cellular turnover. It doesn't just exfoliate the surface; it suppresses melanocytes—the cells that cause pigment—and clears out the debris that leads to chronic breakouts. It’s the best choice for those who need a total reboot for their skin texture and want to see a dramatic change in their complexion's clarity. The BioRePeel: The No-Downtime Glow On the other hand, if you have a wedding, a gala, or a big presentation coming up and you want that red carpet radiance without the actual peeling, the BioRePeel is a game-changer. It uses a patented biphasic technology that bypasses the outer layer of skin to work its magic underneath. You get all the collagen stimulation and brightening without the social downtime. It’s the perfect peel for those who are always on the go but still want to maintain a high level of skin health. The Mechanical Approach with Microneedling Microneedling uses your body's own healing power to rebuild the skin from the inside out. By creating thousands of microscopic injuries, we trick the skin into producing a massive amount of fresh collagen and elastin. Sylfirm X: The Evolution of RF Microneedling Standard microneedling is great, but Sylfirm X is in a league of its own. By adding Radiofrequency (RF) energy to the needles, we aren't just improving texture; we are tightening the skin. As the needles penetrate to a specific depth, they release a burst of heat that shrinks the underlying tissues and tightens the skin's scaffold. This makes Sylfirm X the ultimate choice for several difficult concerns: Deep Acne Scars: The combination of physical needles and RF heat helps break up stubborn, fibrous scar tissue that other treatments can't reach. Skin Laxity: It tightens the jawline, neck, and even the delicate skin around the eyes better than needles alone. Rosacea and Redness: Sylfirm X is one of the few RF devices that can actually target abnormal blood vessels to reduce chronic flushing and redness. The Light Approach with Advanced Lasers Laser resurfacing uses specific wavelengths of light to vaporize imperfections or heat the tissue to force renewal. It is the most high-tech way to achieve an even skin tone. Lutronic Ultra: The Professional Polishing Tool Think of the Lutronic Ultra laser as the ultimate skin polisher. It’s a Thulium laser that is specifically designed to hunt down and destroy excess pigment. If your primary concern is melasma, liver spots, or that dull, dusty look that comes with age, the Ultra is your best bet. It creates tiny micro-channels in the skin that can also be used to infuse medical-grade serums deeper than they could ever go on their own. It’s fast, incredibly effective, and has significantly less downtime than older CO2 lasers, making it a favorite for our Michigan patients. The Glass Skin Maintenance Routine Resurfacing is a major event for your skin, but what happens between those big appointments is what determines how long your results last. That’s where DiamondGlow comes into play. Achieving the Glass Skin Aesthetic You have likely heard the term glass skin trending on social media. Originating from Korean beauty standards, glass skin refers to a complexion so smooth, hydrated, and even-toned that it appears translucent and reflective, much like a pane of glass. While many try to achieve this through a 10-step routine, the true look comes from within the skin itself. It requires a lack of visible pores, an absence of dead skin cell buildup, and deep, dermal hydration. You cannot simply paint glass skin on; you have to build it through consistent resurfacing and deep-tissue infusion. DiamondGlow as Your Connective Tissue DiamondGlow is the primary tool we use to maintain that glass skin finish. It isn't just a standard facial; it’s a medical-grade resurfacing treatment that uses a real diamond-tip wand to exfoliate, extract, and infuse serums simultaneously. By getting a DiamondGlow every four to six weeks, you maintain the results of your more intensive peels and lasers. It prevents the dulling buildup of dead skin and ensures your surface texture remains incredibly smooth and reflective. When your skin is this clean and hydrated, light bounces off the surface evenly, giving you that natural, filter-free radiance every day. The Decision Matrix: Which Treatment is Right for You? With so many options, how do you choose? Here is a simple guide we use at SkinMD to help patients find their starting point: If you have deep acne scars or sagging skin: Choose Sylfirm X . The combination of needles and heat is the only way to remodel that deep tissue and provide a lifting effect. If you have sun-stache, melasma, or brown spots: Choose the Lutronic Ultra . Its wavelength is specifically tuned to target melanin and clear up pigmentation. If you have active acne and uneven texture: Choose the VI Peel . It’s the most effective way to kill bacteria, calm inflammation, and smooth the surface simultaneously. If you have a big event and want a filter look: Choose the BioRePeel or DiamondGlow . These provide high glow with zero downtime, making them perfect for last-minute prep. And don’t forget: you won’t be making these decisions alone! Our team of aesthetic experts is committed to ensuring each of our patients is given a bespoke treatment plan designed to help you reach your specific skincare goals. Why Investing in Your Skin Quality Matters Healthy skin reflects light, while damaged, textured skin absorbs it, making you look older and more tired. When we fix the surface of your skin, you don't just look younger—you look healthier and more vibrant. At SkinMD MedSpa, we don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. We often combine these different modalities to create a custom skin quality plan that addresses your specific scars, spots, and pores. The journey to perfect skin texture starts with an expert conversation. Whether you’re in Dearborn, Detroit, or the surrounding Michigan communities, our team is ready to help you build your personal resurfacing roadmap.

Your best skin is just one treatment away

Let’s be honest: most of us want the results of a high-intensity laser, but we absolutely dread the red and raw recovery that usually comes with it. We want the sunspots gone and the melasma faded, but we can’t exactly take a week off work to hide in a dark room while our skin heals. If you’ve been sitting on the fence about laser resurfacing because of the downtime, it’s time you met the Lutronic Ultra. At SkinMD MedSpa in Dearborn, MI, we often call this our glow getter treatment. It’s a sophisticated Thulium laser, often referred to as LaseMD, that bridges the gap between a relaxing facial and an aggressive surgical laser. It’s the secret weapon for Michigan residents looking to hit the undo button on years of sun damage and seasonal dullness. Understanding How the Thulium Laser Rebuilds Your Skin Most traditional resurfacing lasers are ablative, meaning they remove the top layer of your skin to force it to regrow. While effective, it’s a heavy commitment that involves significant peeling and discomfort. The Lutronic Ultra is different because it is a non-ablative fractional laser. Instead of burning the surface, it uses targeted energy to create thousands of microscopic channels deep within the tissue. This triggers your body’s natural healing response and kickstarts massive collagen production without destroying the surface layer. Because the laser is so fast and precise, it treats only a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue intact. You get the deep-tissue benefits of a powerful laser, but your skin stays protected, meaning your recovery is measured in hours rather than days. Identifying the Best Candidates for Laser Pigment Correction If you look in the mirror and feel like your skin has lost its light, or if you’re frustrated by specific patches of pigment, this laser was designed for you. It is particularly effective for several different skin struggles that we see frequently in our Dearborn office: Sun Damage and Age Spots: If those summer days at the lake left behind brown reminders on your cheeks and forehead, the Ultra specifically targets that excess melanin. Melasma Management: Many lasers produce too much heat for melasma and can actually make it worse. The Ultra is gentle and fast enough to treat hormonal pigmentation safely without the risk of rebounding. The Winter Skin Slump: Michigan winters can leave skin looking grey, sallow, and dehydrated. This laser polishes the surface to restore that glass skin radiance that usually requires a heavy makeup routine to achieve. Fine Lines and Prevention: Even if you don't have heavy pigment, the collagen boost from the Ultra helps soften the early signs of aging and keeps the skin barrier resilient. Fast Treatment and Minimal Downtime for Busy Schedules The biggest hurdle for our patients is usually a packed schedule. The beauty of the Lutronic Ultra is its sheer efficiency. A full face treatment usually takes about 20 minutes from start to finish. You might leave the office feeling a little warm, almost like a mild sunburn, and perhaps a bit pink for the rest of the afternoon. By the next morning, you can typically apply your normal skincare, put on your makeup, and go about your day. Over the next week, the damaged pigment will subtly flake away. This exfoliation is often so fine that you won't even notice it happening—it just feels like your skin is slightly textured for a day or two. As that old, damaged skin sheds, it reveals the fresh, bright, and even-toned complexion underneath. It’s the perfect way to reset your skin without putting your life on hold. Your Path to Glowing Skin in Dearborn You don’t have to settle for a dull complexion just because you’re too busy for a week of recovery. Whether you’re prepping for a big event like a wedding or just want to feel more confident without a heavy layer of foundation, the Lutronic Ultra is the gold standard for modern resurfacing. Our team specializes in customizing the intensity of the laser to match your specific goals and your skin's tolerance.  Ready to see why this is the favorite treatment of the SkinMD team?
