Belkyra™

Submental fullness, aka chin fat/double chin, plague many of us as we age. BELKYRA, also known as KYBELLA, treatments recontour the chin and jawline, improving your facial profile for good with just a handful of treatments. Surgery used to be the only treatment option to target the chin and neck area, but injectable BELKYRA treatments are now an alternative.

What is it?

Belkyra treatments are strategically mapped injections of deoxycholic acid, a fat-metabolizing agent found naturally in your body, targeted at improving the appearance of your double chin.

Unfortunately, double chins are often unrelated to weight and lifestyle, and can be hereditary marking it very difficult to lose. Fat under the chin can make you look older and less fit.

Most patients require between 2-6 Belkyra treatments over the course of several months for optimal results.

With each appointment, you will notice a reduction in double chin fullness – permanently!

What does it do?

Belkyra causes the destruction of fat cells; once destroyed, those cells can no longer store fat. No maintenance or upkeep is required, unlike Botox or fillers.

Where is it injected?

Belkyra is injected in the chin, jaw, and neck area, and starts by mapping out a series of dots in the target area, using a very tiny needle.

Is it safe?

Yes, Belkyra is Health Canada approved.

What are the side effects?

Most patients can expect a few days of downtime that include minor swelling, bruising, and tenderness.

What to Expect

Before your appointment:

Prior to your first treatment we recommend scheduling a free consultation with one of our technicians. We can go over your goals, budget, and help you set a plan for the best results.

During your appointment:

A Belkyra session is typically 15-20 minutes, and you can return to regular activities after your appointment. Your injector will apply a topical anesthetic prior to treatment.

After your appointment:

The results of Belkyra are permanent, but you may need up to 6 sessions to achieve your desired results.

You may experience a few days of minor swelling, bruising, numbness, or tenderness. You should notice results within 3-4 weeks post-treatment. For best results, gently massage the area twice daily.
