Belkyra Treatment Oakville: Non-Surgical Fat Reduction for Double Chin and Jowls
Belkyra, internationally known as Kybella, is an injectable medication developed specifically to treat localized areas of stubborn fat.
Approved by Health Canada in 2015, Belkyra treatment has become a trusted non-surgical option for effectively reducing submental fullness—often referred to as a double chin—as well as other small, persistent fat deposits along the jawline, abdomen, bra-line area, flanks, and thighs.
Belkyra’s active ingredient is deoxycholic acid, a molecule naturally produced by the body to aid fat breakdown and absorption. When injected directly into targeted fat deposits, Belkyra disrupts fat cell membranes, causing their permanent destruction.
Patients typically notice visible improvements after just a few weeks, with many seeing clear Belkyra results after just one treatment, though multiple sessions may be recommended for optimal outcomes.
