What Is Belkyra®?
What Is Belkyra®?
Belkyra® is a non-surgical injectable treatment for reducing submental fat, commonly referred to as a “double chin.” The active ingredient in Belkyra® is deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the submental area, Belkyra® causes the destruction of fat cells, leading to a reduction in the appearance of a double chin. The treatment is typically administered in a series of injections, with each session lasting approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Most people require between two and six treatments to achieve their desired results. A consultation with a qualified healthcare provider is important to determine if the treatment is right for you.
How Does Belkyra® Work?
How Does Belkyra® Work?
Belkyra® works by injecting deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat, into the submental area. The deoxycholic acid in Belkyra® targets and destroys fat cells, leading to a reduction in the appearance of a double chin. When Belkyra® is injected into the fat under the chin, it causes the destruction of fat cells, which are then absorbed and eliminated by the body’s natural metabolic processes. Over time, the treated area becomes smoother and more contoured, resulting in a more defined jawline.
