Belkyra® may be right for you if you:

• Have mild to moderate fullness under the chin that doesn’t improve with diet or exercise

• Are bothered by a “double chin” appearance in photos or profile

• Want a non-surgical option for jawline contouring

• Prefer gradual improvement with little to no downtime

Are at or near your ideal weight

Belkyra® contains deoxycholic acid—a naturally occurring molecule in the body that breaks down dietary fat. When injected into the submental area:

• It destroys targeted fat cells, which are then eliminated naturally by the body

• Injections are completed in under 30 minutes

• A series of 2–4 treatments is typically recommended for optimal contouring

Our injectors use mapping techniques to ensure even, symmetrical improvement and will space treatments at least 4–6 weeks apart for safety and effectiveness.

Book Your Personalized Contouring Plan

While Belkyra® works beneath the skin, overall results can be enhanced through skin-tightening treatments and supportive care. Our team may recommend:

• Sciton SkinTyte™ or BBL® for post-treatment firmness and skin tone

• Dermal fillers or biostimulators to define the chin or jawline contour

• Medical-grade skincare to support hydration and elasticity

This holistic approach ensures your outcome is balanced, elegant, and in harmony with the rest of your features.

Belkyra® requires minimal downtime, but some swelling and tenderness are common in the days following each session.

• Swelling typically peaks within 48 hours and may last 5–10 days

• Gradual fat reduction becomes visible over 4–6 weeks

• Results are long-lasting once desired contour is achieved

• Touch-up sessions may be considered depending on aesthetic goals

Our team will provide post-care instructions and check-in as needed to support your recovery.

What to Know Before Your Belkyra® Treatment

Belkyra® is a clinically proven, non-surgical treatment for submental fat—but like all injectable procedures, it comes with specific considerations. Our experienced team ensures that every treatment is safe, informed, and tailored to your unique profile.

Common, Temporary Reactions:

• Swelling and tenderness at injection sites (most noticeable 1–3 days post-treatment)

• Redness, bruising, or firmness under the chin

• Mild numbness or tingling (typically resolves within a few weeks)

• Temporary difficulty swallowing or tight sensation in the neck area (less common)

These effects are expected and will be discussed during your consultation and post-care process.

Less Common but Important Risks:

• Nerve injury leading to temporary facial weakness or uneven smile (rare; generally resolves)

• Small, firm nodules or areas of hardness under the skin

• Infection or skin ulceration (extremely rare with proper technique and hygiene)

Who Should Avoid or Delay Treatment:

• Individuals with active skin infections in the treatment area

• Patients with prior neck surgery or significant neck laxity (evaluation needed)

• Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals

• Those with unrealistic expectations for non-surgical results
