Endolift + Kybella: Non-Surgical Fat and Skin Tightening
Are you struggling with stubborn fat under the chin or skin laxity? You’re not alone. Many people seek solutions for these common aging concerns but want to avoid the risks and downtime of surgery.
Endolift and Kybella work together. They are a non-surgical pair that targets extra fat and loose skin, helping you achieve a more defined and youthful appearance.
At Nuceria, we provide these advanced treatments with the help of Samantha Fonte, FNP-BC. She is a skilled nurse practitioner with much experience. Let’s explore how this combination works, why it’s so effective, and why it’s one of the best alternatives to facelifts.
What Is Endolift?
Endolift is a modern skin tightening treatment. It uses laser energy to refresh the skin and boost collagen production. An exemplary laser fiber is inserted just beneath the skin, where it stimulates tissue remodeling, reduces skin laxity, and even melts small amounts of fat.
Key benefits of Endolift include:
- Non-surgical and minimally invasive.
- Effective for mild to moderate skin laxity on the face and neck.
- Stimulates collagen, improving skin firmness and elasticity over time.
- It targets small areas of excessive fat, offering both contouring and tightening effects.
The procedure is quick, requires no incisions, and involves little to no downtime. It is an ideal solution for those seeking a natural yet noticeable improvement.
What Is Kybella?
Kybella is an FDA-approved injection that targets submental fat, which is the fat under the chin that causes a double chin. The active ingredient, deoxycholic acid, is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps break down dietary fat. When you inject Kybella into the treated area, it destroys fat cells, and your body naturally flushes them out.
Benefits of Kybella include:
- Permanent removal of fat deposits under the chin.
- A non-surgical alternative to liposuction.
- Gradual, natural-looking results that improve over several sessions.
Most patients require 2–4 sessions about a month apart for optimal results.
Why Combine Endolift and Kybella?
While both treatments are effective on their own, combining them addresses multiple concerns simultaneously. Here’s why this pairing is so powerful:
Comprehensive Results
- Kybella eliminates fat cells, but loose skin can sometimes remain when fat is removed. This is where Endolift shines—it tightens the treated area, ensuring a smooth and contoured appearance.
- Non-Surgical Alternative to Facelifts
- Surgery, such as a facelift, can be daunting because of cost, recovery time, and potential complications. Combining Endolift and Kybella provides similar results without the risks or extended downtime.
- Tailored for You
- At Nuceria, we customize every treatment plan. Whether you need more focus on fat removal, skin tightening, or both, our expert team, led by Samantha Fonte, FNP-BC, ensures your results align with your goals.
What Is the Treatment Process?
Here’s what you can expect when undergoing Endolift and Kybella treatments at Nuceria:
1. Schedule a Consultation
Before starting, you’ll schedule a consultation with our team. We’ll evaluate your concerns and goals, whether it’s a double chin, skin laxity, or both. Based on this, we’ll design a personalized treatment plan for you.
2. Kybella Injections
The first step often involves administering Kybella injections to the fat deposits under the chin. Each session lasts about 15–20 minutes, during which precise injections are made to break down fat cells.
Common side effects include mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness in the treated area.
- Recovery is quick, and you can return to your normal activities within a day or two.
Endolift Procedure
Once Kybella begins reducing fat, we move to the Endolift procedure to target skin laxity. Using a laser fiber thinner than hair, Endolift stimulates collagen production, firms the skin, and enhances overall contour.
- The procedure is virtually painless and requires no anesthesia.
- Minimal downtime occurs, with only slight redness or swelling that resolves quickly.
- Follow-Up and Maintenance
Results from both treatments continue to improve over time. Your body flushes out the destroyed fat cells, and the collagen stimulated by Endolift strengthens the skin’s structure over several months.
What Results Can You Expect?
The combination of Endolift and Kybella provides a one-two punch for fat reduction and skin tightening. Here’s what you can look forward to:
- A slimmer, more defined jawline.
- Permanent reduction of fat deposits under the chin.
- Firmer, smoother skin with improved elasticity.
- Gradual, natural-looking results that develop over several weeks to months.
Are There Any Side Effects?
Endolift and Kybella provide safety and well-tolerance, with only mild, temporary side effects.
- Kybella: Swelling, redness, or minor bruising in the treated area, which typically subsides within a few days.
- Endolift: Slight redness or swelling at the laser’s entry point, which resolves quickly.
Your provider will give detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and the best possible results.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
This treatment combination is perfect for individuals who:
- Do you want to address a double chin or stubborn submental fat?
- Have mild to moderate skin laxity in the face or neck.
- Prefer non-surgical solutions with minimal downtime.
If you’re unsure whether this is right for you, don’t worry—our team at Nuceria, led by Samantha Fonte, FNP-BC, will guide you in choosing the best options for your needs.
Alternatives to a Facelift
Endolift and Kybella aren’t the only options for facial rejuvenation. Other non-surgical alternatives to a traditional facelift include:
- Ultherapy: Uses ultrasound technology to lift and tighten skin.
- Thread Lifts: Dissolvable threads provide an immediate lift while stimulating collagen.
- CoolSculpting: Freezes and reduces small fat deposits.
- Microneedling with Radiofrequency (RF): Combines microneedling with energy-based skin tightening.
At Nuceria, we offer many of these treatments and can help you determine which ones best address your concerns.
