Even with a flawless diet and regular exercise, stubborn fat under the chin (known clinically as submental fullness) can be incredibly resistant to shifting. Often triggered by genetics or natural aging rather than lifestyle, it can mask your natural jawline and make you feel less confident.
Belkyra® (known as Kybella® in the US) is the first and only FDA-approved injectable treatment specifically formulated to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fullness under the chin.
It utilizes a synthetic version of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the human body that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. When precisely injected into the subcutaneous fat layer beneath your chin, it goes to work destroying the targeted fat cells.
Once Belkyra destroys those fat cells, they can no longer store or accumulate fat. Once you achieve your aesthetic goals, no further maintenance treatments are required. Treatment areas can be treated using Belkyra.

Please reach us at info@rxcosmetics.ca if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Directly after your treatment, you will experience localized swelling, redness, and a feeling of firmness or numbness under the chin. This is completely normal and actually means the treatment is working! The swelling typically peaks within 48 hours and resolves over 1 to 2 weeks.

Yes, Belkyra is an extensively clinically tested, FDA and Medsafe approved prescription medicine. It must only be administered by trained medical professionals. At rxcosmetics, your safety and natural-looking results are our absolute priorities.
Belkyra is perfect for adults with moderate to severe submental fat who want a sharper profile without undergoing surgery. It is designed specifically for stubborn pockets of fat; it is not a weight loss solution, nor is it effective for loose, sagging skin caused purely by aging (laxity)
The most common side effects include temporary swelling, bruising, mild pain, numbness, and small areas of hardness around the injection sites. Rare complications like temporary nerve weakness (causing an uneven smile) or swallowing difficulties are minimized by choosing highly trained professionals like our team
