Kybella Fat Dissolver

Eliminate Your Double Chin with Kybella at SkinMD!

If you're struggling with a double chin or submental fat that doesn’t seem to go away, even with diet and exercise, you're not alone. Many people experience stubborn fat in this area, but fortunately, Kybella provides a safe and effective solution. As the first and only FDA-approved injectable treatment for reducing submental fullness (the fat under your chin), Kybella can help you achieve a slimmer, more defined chin profile—without surgery.


At SkinMD, medspa in Dearborn, Michigan, we offer this treatment to help you look and feel your best.


How Kybella Works

Kybella contains Deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps break down and absorb fat. When injected into the targeted area, Kybella works to destroy fat cells in the submental area (under the chin). Once these fat cells are eliminated, they cannot return, which means the results are permanent, as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle.


This treatment is specifically designed to target stubborn fat in the chin area, which can be challenging to reduce with just diet and exercise. If you're looking for a more contoured, youthful profile without the need for invasive surgery, Kybella is a fantastic option.

What to Expect During Kybella Treatment

The procedure is quick and relatively simple. During your appointment at SkinMD, one of our injectable experts will use a series of small injections to deliver Kybella directly into the submental fat. The entire process typically takes around 15-20 minutes, making it easy to fit into your busy schedule.


Kybella treatments are minimally invasive, however, some mild discomfort or a slight burning sensation may occur during the injection, which usually subsides quickly. We take care to ensure that your comfort is prioritized throughout the treatment.


Recovery and Aftercare

After your Kybella treatment, you may experience some swelling, tenderness, or bruising in the treated area. This is completely normal and should subside. It’s important to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your SkinMD practitioner to maximize results and minimize discomfort.


You’ll be advised to avoid vigorous exercise for at least 48 hours, or until any swelling has gone down. Most people can resume normal activities the same day or within a few hours of the procedure. While there’s no significant downtime, you may notice swelling and discomfort for the first few days.


How Many Treatments Will You Need?

The number of Kybella treatments you’ll need varies depending on the amount of fat in the targeted area. Most patients require two to four treatments, spaced about one month apart. Your practitioner at SkinMD will assess your specific needs and create a personalized treatment plan for you.


When Will You See Results?

Results from Kybella treatment are gradual. While you may begin to notice changes as early as four weeks, it typically takes up to six months to see the full effects. As fat cells are destroyed and your chin profile refines, you'll enjoy long-lasting results that enhance your overall appearance.

Hair Transplant Treatments: Reclaim Your Confidence at SkinMD

April 15, 2025
Hair loss is a natural part of life that many people face, whether it’s due to aging, genetics, or other factors. It’s something that affects both men and women, and while it’s common, it can still feel frustrating and even impact your self-esteem. The good news? You don’t have to accept hair loss if you're not ready to. Thanks to advancements in hair transplant treatments, you now have the opportunity to restore your hair and regain your youthful appearance. Embrace Your Youthful Look with Hair Transplant Treatments Hair loss doesn’t have to define you, and it certainly doesn’t have to stop you from feeling as young and vibrant as you are. Whether you're dealing with a receding hairline, thinning hair, or more significant bald spots, a hair transplant can offer a permanent solution. This treatment gives you the chance to reclaim your natural hair, boost your confidence, and maintain the look you desire for years to come.  Why Hair Loss Happens Hair loss can occur for a variety of reasons, but the most common cause is androgenetic alopecia, or male and female pattern baldness, which is typically genetic. Other factors, such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, or hormonal changes, can also contribute to thinning or falling hair. While these factors are often out of our control, they don’t have to be the end of the road when it comes to maintaining a full, healthy head of hair.

Before and After Care for Botox and Filler Treatments at SkinMD

March 1, 2025
Botox and dermal fillers are popular treatments that help reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss, providing a youthful, refreshed appearance. To get the best results, it's crucial to follow the proper pre- and post-treatment care. Here’s what you need to know for your Botox and filler treatments at SkinMD. What Do Botox and Fillers Do? Botox is an injectable neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes the muscles causing wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines. Dermal Fillers restore lost volume and smooth deeper wrinkles, commonly used on areas like the lips, cheeks, and nasolabial folds. Before Your Appointment To ensure a smooth treatment and optimal results, follow these tips before your appointment: Avoid Blood Thinners : Refrain from taking NSAIDs like aspirin, ibuprofen, or Aleve for one week before your appointment, as these can increase bruising. No Alcohol : Avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior to treatment to reduce bruising risks. Cold Sores : If you have a history of cold sores, especially around the mouth, inform your provider a few days before your appointment. Medication can be prescribed to prevent an outbreak. Dental Procedures : Avoid dental work for at least two weeks before and after dermal filler treatments to avoid complications. Hydrate and Eat : Be sure to drink water and eat before your appointment to avoid feeling lightheaded. Pre-Treatment Supplements : Consider taking Arnica or Bromelain to reduce bruising and swelling, and Tylenol 1 hour before the procedure for added comfort. Health Restrictions : Botox and dermal fillers are not recommended for pregnant or nursing individuals or those with certain neuromuscular disorders. After Your Appointment Proper aftercare is essential for the best results. Here’s how to care for yourself after treatment: Swelling and Bruising : Mild swelling, redness, and bruising are common but should subside within a few days. A cold compress can help reduce swelling during the first 24 hours. Hydrate : Drink plenty of water to support healing. Eating pineapple or continuing Arnica and Bromelain supplements may also help with recovery. Elevate Your Head : Sleep with your head elevated for the first few nights to minimize swelling. Makeup : Wait 24 hours before applying makeup to reduce the risk of infection. Be Patient : It can take up to two weeks for the full effects to appear, so be patient as your results settle. Follow-Up Treatments : Follow-up treatments may be recommended to maintain or enhance your results. Consult your provider for guidance.
