RL Center for Cosmetic Surgery and Medspa will be the first medical spa or cosmetic surgery center in Illinois to offer Kythera Biopharmaceutical Inc.’s injectable drug, Kybella, a solution that destroys adult submental fat. Currently, the only options for fat removal in the double-chin area today, is to cut it out or suck it out until now.
The Kythera Biopharmaceutical drug now named, Kybella, is identical to deoxycholic acid—a solution that aids the body to absorb fats that are naturally produced by the body, according to the FDA. Kybella is an injection administered into the fat tissue in the submental area (under the chin) and works to destroy fat cells. As of right now, Kybella is only FDA approved for the submental area.
RL Center for Cosmetic Surgery and Medspa is a full-service medical spa and cosmetic surgery center that offers the latest in aesthetic medicine and plastic surgery today including; laser hair removal, laser skin rejuvenation, skin tightening, sclerotherapy, BOTOX®, dermal fillers and more. RL Center for Cosmetic Surgery and Medspa is a black diamond account with Allergan, ranking top 2% in the country for injectables.
Daniel Ritacca, President of RL Center for Cosmetic Surgery and Medspa says, “I’m excited to offer this technology to my patients….I have met with thousands of patient with this concern – now I have a solution.”
The safety and efficacy of Kybella for treating adult submental fat were established in two clinical trials that enrolled over a thousand patients.
