Kybella and PCDC

Kybella and PCDC are two remarkable treatments addressing submental fullness, commonly known as “double chin”. Addressing submental fullness can significantly enhance a patient’s facial profile and boost their confidence. Kybella is a prescription treatment designed to improve the appearance and profile of fat below the chin. On the other hand, PCDC lipolysis is also a cutting-edge solution for submental fullness which effectively reduces fullness under the jawline, sharpening a patient’s profile.

What Are Kybella and PCDC?

Both Kybella and PCDC (phosphatidylcholine deoxycholic acid) lipolysis are treatments that are used to address concerns related to fat reduction and contouring. Undergoing Kybella and PCDC treatments should always be performed by qualified practitioners to ensure safety and optimal outcomes. Let’s delve into the details of each treatment:

Kybella

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment specifically designed to target and reduce fat beneath the chin. It contains synthetic deoxycholic acid, which breaks down fat cells. Over time, the fat cells are metabolized and eliminated by the body, resulting in a more defined jawline and reduced fullness. While effective on submental fat, Kybella may not be suitable for other areas of the body.

PCDC

PCDC utilizes phosphatidylcholine deoxycholic acid and shares with Kybella an active ingredient (deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body). This treatment can be used not only for submental fat but also other common “trouble” areas of the body where localized fat accumulates. PCDC lipolysis destroys fat cells and once these are destroyed, they cannot accumulate fat anymore.

How Do Kybella and PCDC Work?

Let’s delve into the detailed processes of Kybella and PCDC treatments:

Kybella

After cleaning and preparing the targeted area with topical numbing, the doctor administers several small injections directly into the submental fat (under the chin). There are no incisions needed and the treatment takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes. The deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body, disrupts fat cell membranes and results in their destruction. Over subsequent weeks, the body naturally eliminates the fat cells through the lymphatic system. The patient will usually typically notice effects on their chin and jawline after 12 weeks or after at least two Kybella sessions. Due to the collagen stimulation, a patient can experience skin tightening. There is initial swelling and mild discomfort but has minimal downtime.

PCDC

PCDC lipolysis is a fat-dissolving treatment that targets localized fat pockets without surgery. PCDC treatments contain no harmful chemicals, as deoxycholic acid naturally occurs in the body. After applying a numbing agent on the treatment site, the doctor will inject a solution of phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholic acid into the target area. The procedure lasts from 30 minutes to an hour. This solution breaks down the fat cells and like Kybella, will be eliminated through the lymphatic system. Simultaneously, PCDC also stimulates collagen production. PCDC treats submental fat on the chin but can also address issues on the inner and outer thighs, back of arms, upper lower back, and abdomen. The side effects are usually mild and resolve within a few days.

Benefits of Kybella and PCDC

Non-Surgical Fat Reduction

Both Kybella and PCDC offer a non-surgical approach to reducing localized fat deposits. Patients can achieve their desired aesthetic goals without the need for invasive procedures and incisions.

Precision Targeting

Kybella and PCDC treatments are highly targeted. They focus specifically on areas with excess fat, such as the submental region (Kybella) or other trouble spots (PCDC).

Minimal Downtime

After the Kybella and PCDC injections, patients can resume their daily activities almost immediately. There is minimal downtime, making these treatments convenient for patients with busy schedules.

Natural-Looking Results

Both treatments lead to gradual and natural-looking results. As fat cells are gradually metabolized, the changes appear subtle and harmonious with the rest of the face and body.

Collagen Stimulation

Kybella and PCDC not only reduce fat cells but also stimulate collagen production. Collagen enhances skin elasticity and firmness, contributing to an overall rejuvenated appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can get Kybella and PCDC injections?

Consultation with a doctor is essential to determine a patient’s eligibility. Fat-dissolving injections like Kybella and PCDC are suitable for patients with localized, stubborn fat deposits, particularly on the submental area (under the chin).

Where can Kybella and PCDC treatments be used?

Common treatment areas include the chin (to reduce the double chin) but can also address issues on the abdomen, thighs, arms, and buttocks. These injections are versatile and can target localized fat pockets in various body regions.

Are fat-dissolving injections like Kybella and PCDC permanent?

Yes. These treatments permanently destroy fat cells. Once the fat cells are broken down, they do not regenerate. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and weight is crucial to prevent new fat accumulation.

How do I measure the results of Kybella and PCDC treatments?

Results vary from person to person but are generally long-lasting. Patients may notice a sharper jawline and more sculpted areas of the body like the abdomen, thighs, or arms. Regular follow-ups with a doctor will also help track progress and optimize outcomes.

How long is the recovery time for Kybella and PCDC?

There is minimal downtime after a Kybella or PCDC treatment. There may be mild swelling, bruising, and redness around the injection sites, but these will subside within a few days. A patient may return to their daily routine immediately.
