Fotona Laser for double chin

We love Fotona with L-Runner for double chin, as it works on two different mechanisms. The deep heat generated by the long puls ND-Yag Laser eliminates fatty cells (adipose cells) and offers skin tightening by inducing collagen production.

The video below shows part of the session of Fotona Deep laser using L-Runner (Albany Cosmetic and Laser Center is the only clinic in Canada that have this technology).

Results and cost

The Fotona treatment is very comfortable and has no downtime, a session will take 30 min and recommend a series of 4 sessions, 2 weeks apart. The session range between 300-600 dollars according to the severity of the case

Kybella injection for double chin

Kybella is a non-surgical injectable technique used for the reduction of fat on the double chin. It is a treatment used to get rid of fat around the neck. It is a formulation of deoxycholic acid that helps in the absorption and breakdown of fat (liposuction). Kybella is approved by the FDA as an injectable treatment to decrease the appearance of a double chin.

How does Kybella work?

Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps the absorption of dietary fat. It is a bile acid found in the liver and works to dissolve fat cells. Once it is injected into the targeted area (beneath the chin), the acid breaks down, absorbs, and prevents further storage of fat in that area. Kybella injections should be administered by a healthcare professional because the deoxycholic acid can also kill other cells.

How many Kybella’s injections are required?

The number of treatment sessions required depends on individuals but generally speaking, multiple sessions (two to five sessions) might be required for effective treatments. Each session is about 15-20 injections, and the session needs to be properly spaced out by approximately one to two-month intervals.

What are the risks and side effects involved?

In most cases, the recovery process for Kybella is minimal, and the side effects subside within one to two weeks after treatment. Some common post-treatment side effects may include bruising, redness, swelling, and numbness. Severe side effects may include an uneven smile, problems swallowing, facial muscle weakness, and sometimes injury to the nerves. Report immediately any sign of severe side effects you experienced with your healthcare provider.

Therapy for double chin

Ultherapy is a non-surgical and non-invasive method that uses focused ultrasound energy delivered to the dermal and deep layers of the skin to lift and tighten skin on the neck, eyebrows and under the chin. Therapy therapy, unlike lasers, evades the surface of the skin and delivers the ultrasound energy into the deep structural tissues of the skin where collagen resides. It lifts and tightens the skin by stimulating the growth of new collagen which is initiated by a natural regenerative response. The results build over two to three months and continue to improve up to the sixth month after the treatment.

What are the benefits of Ultherapy?

Non-invasive– Ultherapy is the only procedure that uses focused ultrasound technology to lift and tighten without the need for surgery.

No downtime needed – As a result of its non-invasive nature, Ultherapy requires no downtime.

Long-lasting results – It takes two to three months to notice any effective results. The results improve over time and are long-lasting.

Adjustable treatment – The depth of the energy and the length of treatment can be adjusted to the individual’s needs.

Natural look enhancement – Ultherapy causes gradual tightening of the skin through collagen stimulation by the natural regenerative process, resulting in a very natural look. Without the risk and healing process of surgery, you can have an anti-aging result.

Are there any side effects?

Following Ultherapy treatment, some patients may have slight swelling, redness or tenderness for a brief period. These effects are mild and temporary.

What is Coolsculpting?

CoolSculpting is a fat-freezing procedure that uses controlled cooling to get rid of stubborn fats. It is the only FDA-cleared, non-surgical fat-reduction treatment available. The coolsculpting procedure cools and crystallizes targeted fat cells under the skin and the body naturally eliminates the dead cells. Coolsculpting treats larger areas of fats than any other non-surgical treatments.

What are the benefits of Coolsculpting?

Coolsculpting is non-invasive. During treatment, people can engage in other activities like reading a book or taking a nap. There’s no downtime required. One can return to normal activities after treatment.

It is safe and effective

Coolsculpting is a fat freezing technology approved by the FDA. There is no artificial substance involved in the process.

It enhances a natural-looking and long-lasting results.
