Kybella and Direct Primary Care (DPC): Contoured Confidence, Personalized
You're not alone if a double chin makes you feel bad about yourself; more than 100,000 Kybella treatments are done every year. But many people have to deal with cookie-cutter solutions or hidden costs. Direct Primary Care (DPC) changes this journey by giving you personalized care, clear pricing, and care that puts your aesthetic goals first.
Comprehending Kybella: Getting rid of fat and shaping your body
Kybella (deoxycholic acid) is an injection that kills fat cells under the chin. You need 2 to 6 sessions, with 4 to 6 weeks between each one. Once fat cells are gone, the results are permanent.
Important information for patients:
- Uses: Get rid of submental fat (double chin).
- Safety: FDA-approved; risks include swelling (70%), bruising (30%), or nerve damage (rare).
- Costs: Traditional clinics charge between 1,200 USD and 1,800 USD per session, but DPC lowers fees by 20% to 30%.
Risks of care that isn't connected:
- Uneven injections cause asymmetry.
- Nerve damage that wasn't caught on time, causing temporary numbness.
- Stress from having to pay for unexpected touch-ups.
