At LUXURGERY© in NYC, Dr. Sachin M. Shridharani, a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive academic contributions and global lecturing experience, incorporates Kybella into personalized treatment plans designed to enhance facial balance with precision.
How Kybella Works
Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment formulated with deoxycholic acid, a molecule that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. When strategically injected beneath the chin, it targets submental fullness (often referred to as a “double chin”) by gradually dissolving fat cells. Once treated, these fat cells can no longer store fat, contributing to a more defined jawline over time.
Why Patients Choose Kybella for Jawline Refinement
Kybella appeals to patients seeking a non-surgical approach to contouring the lower face. Unlike surgical procedures, it does not require incisions or anesthesia, and treatments are performed in our office. For many, it offers a convenient option that can be integrated into a busy NYC lifestyle while still delivering meaningful aesthetic improvement. The ability to customize each session based on individual anatomy also allows for a tailored, natural-looking outcome.
What to Expect from the Treatment Process
Kybella is typically performed in a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart. During a consultation, the treatment area is evaluated to determine the appropriate number of sessions and injection pattern. Over time, patients may notice a gradual improvement in contour as the body processes the treated fat. Results develop progressively, helping maintain a natural appearance rather than a sudden change.
The Importance of Expertise and Technique
Precise injection technique plays a significant role in achieving balanced results. Dr. Shridharani was the first plastic surgeon in New York to administer Kybella following FDA approval and has since performed thousands of treatments. His experience also extends to educating other physicians on advanced injection techniques, supporting a thoughtful, detail-oriented approach to facial contouring. This level of expertise is especially important in delicate areas like the jawline, where subtle adjustments can make a noticeable difference.
For those on the Upper East Side and in the greater NYC area considering non-surgical jawline refinement, Kybella offers a well-established option that can be customized to align with individual aesthetic goals.
