As summer approaches and the beach beckons, many of us start thinking about how we can feel our best in swimwear. At Selah Aesthetics and Wellness in Columbus, GA, we understand that achieving your summer body goals is about more than just exercise and diet; it's about feeling confident and comfortable in your skin. That’s why we offer cutting-edge treatments like Kybella and PCDC, designed to help you achieve your desired body contours. Read on to discover how these innovative procedures can help you sculpt and define your silhouette for the summer season.


Understanding Kybella: A Non-Surgical Solution to Submental Fullness


Kybella is a revolutionary non-surgical treatment specifically designed to tackle submental fullness, commonly known as a double chin. Made from deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat, Kybella offers a targeted approach to fat reduction. 


When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella destroys fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction of fullness and leading to a more sculpted and defined jawline. Treatment sessions are quick, typically lasting 15-20 minutes, and are spaced about a month apart. Most patients require 2 to 4 sessions to achieve optimal results. 


Exploring PCDC for Enhanced Body Contouring


While Kybella is ideal for smaller areas like under the chin, PCDC (Phosphatidylcholine and Deoxycholate) is perfect for larger body areas. Whether you’re looking to contour your abdomen, thighs, or flanks, PCDC offers a non-surgical solution to dissolving fat. 


PCDC works by disrupting fat cell membranes, allowing the body to naturally eliminate the broken-down cells. The treatment is minimally invasive and can be customized to target specific problem areas, helping you achieve a more toned and defined physique.


Why Choose Kybella and PCDC?


1. Non-Surgical: Both Kybella and PCDC are non-surgical, meaning there's no need for invasive procedures or prolonged recovery times. This makes them an attractive option for individuals seeking minimal downtime.

 

2. Effective and Targeted: These treatments are designed to specifically target and reduce stubborn fat deposits that may not respond well to diet and exercise alone.


3. Confidence-Boosting: As these treatments are effective in reducing fat and improving contour, they can significantly boost your confidence, helping you feel summer-ready.


What to Expect: The Treatment Process


Before undergoing any treatment, it's important to have a consultation with our skilled professionals at Selah Aesthetics and Wellness. During this consultation, we'll discuss your goals, assess your problem areas, and determine the best course of action.


Kybella Treatment Process:

- Consultation and Planning: Discuss your goals and evaluate the chin area.

- Injection Procedure: The treatment involves a series of small injections underneath the chin.

- Post-Treatment Care: You may experience some swelling, bruising, or numbness, which typically subsides within a week.


PCDC Treatment Process:

- Consultation and Assessment: Identify target areas for fat reduction.

- Injection Procedure: Targeted injections into areas such as the abdomen or thighs.

- Post-Treatment Recovery: Like Kybella, slight swelling or redness is normal and temporary.


Optimizing Results: Post-Treatment Care


To maximize the results of your Kybella and PCDC treatments, it’s crucial to follow post-treatment care instructions. Avoid strenuous activities for a few days and apply ice as needed to reduce swelling. Additionally, staying hydrated and maintaining a healthy diet can support the body’s natural elimination of fat cells.


Is Kybella & PCDC Right for You?


These treatments are suitable for individuals who are close to their ideal body weight but struggle with small to moderate amounts of excess fat in certain areas. They are not weight-loss solutions but are perfect for patients seeking to improve specific body contours.
