Belkyra

Fullness under the chin often referred to as a ‘double-chin’, is a common, yet difficult and under-treated facial aesthetic concern for many people, both women and men. Among the common causes of excess chin fat include aging, genetics and weight changes. This area is commonly very difficult to treat and is often resistant to exercise.

The impact on someone’s confidence and persona is that it can detract from an otherwise balanced and harmonious facial appearance. A double chin creates an older and heavier look, affecting how a person feels about themselves and may lead to feelings of negative self-impression.

Belkyra™, also known as Kybella™ in the U.S., is a revolutionary new non-surgical treatment for improving the appearance of fullness under the chin. When injected into the tissue, the active ingredient, deoxycholic acid, targets and eliminates fat cells. Belkyra™ is an innovative, non-surgical cosmetic injectable designed to reduce fatty tissue in this area.

This is the first non-invasive procedure focussed on treating submental fat, and we are really excited to introduce this wonderful treatment to our Whistler Clinic. Complimentary consultations are available now from our skilled physician Dr Sarah Kennea.
