    Double chin treatment with Deoxycholinic acid

Getting rid of your double chin can be done naturally with Belkyra, a quick and effective treatment for a double chin that is too thick. We inject an acid into your double chin. Belkyra is deoxycholinic acid, this acid breaks down fat cells in your chin. These fat cells can then no longer absorb fat, and your double chin disappears.

Does your double chin bother you? You are not alone in this. A recent survey showed that 67% of people are bothered by the "fullness" of the double chin. This fullness usually consists largely of fatty tissue.

There are a number of reasons why adipose tissue on the double chin thickens, namely predisposition (mother or father has it too), someone has gained weight or aging.

The treatment of the double chin with Belkyra

The procedure takes an average of 30 minutes, depending on the degree of fullness of the double chin and how many injections it needs to be treated with. After the skin is cleaned with alcohol, the area under the chin is accurately outlined with a skin pencil and an "injection grid" is applied (see images below). The product is then injected into the fatty tissue with a series of punctures.

Preparation double chin treatment

In preparation for treatment to remove your double chin, you will first have a no-obligation consultation with our cosmetic doctor. During the consultation, you will be told that you do not need a surgical procedure with a plastic surgeon to have excess fat removed from your double chin. You can have your double chin removed for permanent results with the Belkyra method.

It is recommended (not mandatory) to start taking 3 Arnica D6 tablets 4x daily for 2 weeks before the procedure, which reduces bruising. You can stop this again 7 days after treatment with Belkyra.

  • Where possible, avoid alcohol and blood thinners starting one week before the procedure. Always consult with a doctor beforehand.
  • Do not use body lotion or cream on the area to be treated the night before and on the day of the procedure.
  • You do not need to be sober and fast for the procedure, have breakfast and/or lunch as you are used to.

Immediately after treatment, due to the efficacy of deoxycholinic acid, the double chin will swell and become red. As far as pain symptoms occur during the treatment, they disappear quickly by cooling immediately after the injections. Some bruising may also occur. The swelling, redness and bruising disappear after 7-10 days. Your skin is going to recover quickly.

In principle, you can resume your daily activities immediately, the only thing you have to take into account is visibility of the swelling of the double chin. It is recommended to take 2 tablets of 500 mg paracetamol 3 times a day for the first day, then you will be least restricted after the treatment. This is not strictly necessary. The next morning, or the same evening you can shower as usual.

Different ways of removing a double chin

A double chin correction can be performed in several ways. In case of a very full double chin, we recommend undergoing a double chin liposuction treatment first. The treatment can possibly be combined with the NeckTite treatment. This is a neck elevator without surgery using the NeckTite technique.

The results of double chin liposuction are immediately visible. Combined with NeckTite, neck tightening will be a process that continues for more than one year.
