Deoxycholic acid (known as Belkyra in Canada) is a non-surgical, injectable procedure.
These treatments result in reduced double chin fat to highlight the jawline and improve neck contour.
Deoxycholic acid closely resembles a naturally occurring enzyme found in the body that breaks down and destroys dietary fat.
Most patients will require 2-4 treatments although some may prefer up to six.
A Belkyra procedure takes less than one hour, and sessions are typically spaced 1-2 months apart giving patients flexibility and control within their schedules. Once desired results are achieved no long-term ongoing maintenance is required.
Swelling and bruising may occur lasting a few days and patients are reminded to schedule treatments accordingly. Patients may resume their regular daily activities immediately following treatment.
The cost of treatment is customized to each patient and will be established during the first consultation.
