Marlboro, NJ. January 2016 – KYBELLATM (deoxycholic acid) injection, the first and only FDA-approved injectable drug available that contours and improves the appearance of moderate to severe submental neck fullness, sometimes referred to as a “double chin,” is now available in Marlboro, NJ. Double chin is a common, yet under-treated aesthetic condition that is often resistant to diet and exercise alone and influenced by several factors, including aging, genetics and weight gain.
“I am excited to be one of the first Aesthetic Physicians in Monmouth County to be able to offer KYBELLA™ to patients. It’s important to be trained on the proper technique for administering the treatment. So I look forward to finally be able to offer a non-surgical solution to what patients call a “ double chin” or “turkey neck,” said Dr. Cynthia Salter-Lewis.
Each in-office treatment session with KYBELLA™ is typically 30 minutes. When injected into subcutaneous fat, KYBELLA™ causes the destruction of fat cells. Once destroyed, those cells cannot store or accumulate fat. The aesthetic response is usually achieved with 2-4 KYBELLA treatments. Once you reach the desired response, you should not have to retreat because the fat cells are permanently destroyed by KYBELLA.  The treatment sessions are spaced at least 6-8 weeks apart. Treatment with KYBELLA™ is customized by Dr. Cynthia Salter-Lewis to the patient’s aesthetic goals for an improved chin and neck profile.
The most common side effects are swelling, bruising, pain, numbness, redness and formation of areas of hardness in the treatment area. In clinical trials, the incidence and severity of most side effects decreased with subsequent KYBELLA™ treatments. Most side effects resolve in a relatively short period of time. KYBELLATM has been the focus of a global clinical development program involving over 20 clinical studies with more than 2,600 patients worldwide, of which 1,600 have been treated with KYBELLATM.
