Belkyra is a medication designed to target the fatty tissue that develops under the chin in the upper area of the neck. Often referred to as a double chin, this area is often very hard to treat through traditional diet and weight loss strategies. Its presence can make you feel older and less chiselled. Both men and women can benefit from Belkyra injections in these cases.
Belkyra, also known as Kybella in the U.S., is approved by Health Canada and the FDA for treatment of fatty tissue under the chin only. This fatty tissue is called submental fullness and is made up of fat cells along with sagging skin. Belkyra targets those fat cells using deoxycholic acid, a type of naturally occurring molecule. It works to break down and absorb dietary fat in the foods you eat.
When injected into the fat beneath the chin, this molecule attacks the presence of fat cells, breaking down the cells and eliminating their ability to function. Your body’s natural waste removal process will flush the fat cells out of your body over time. Because these cells are destroyed, they cannot regrow and store fat again.
Although Belkyra is highly effective as a treatment for a double chin, it does not target skin cells directly. It cannot help with the removal of loose skin, including after the fat cells are eliminated. For this, our team at TPS Wellness Centre may recommend the use of a neck lift or other facial treatments if you need them. Consider Belkyra to be one component of a broader aesthetic treatment plan we offer. When you visit us for a consultation, we will provide you with a comprehensive and individualized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
As a non-surgical double chin removal procedure, Belkyra may be more readily available to patients than other procedures. It does not require extensive downtime either. To find out if you are a candidate, we encourage you to set up a consultation with our team at TPS Wellness Centre. It is the best way to learn the treatment options that can give you the look and confidence you want.
During our consultation, we will discuss any limitations that could impact your ability to qualify for Belkyra. The best candidates are in good overall health and at least 18 years of age. You should have realistic expectations of how Belkyra can help you and any additional treatment options that may be recommended.
Belkyra is not approved for use in those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. If you have a bleeding disorder, an infection in close proximity to the treatment area, or known allergies to any of the ingredients in Belkyra, this may not be a recommended strategy for your needs.
Imagine getting rid of your double chin without needing surgery. For many people who have struggled with this targeted area of fat cells on their body, Belkyra treatment can be a reliable, safe way to finally get the jawline you desire. Consider what you can expect from the process.
If you are interested in our jaw contouring injection, set up a consultation with our treatment team. During your consultation, we will discuss what your specific needs and goals are, outlining what you can expect from this procedure. We will gather your medical history and provide a visual examination of the area. Our team may recommend other facial or neck treatments that could further enhance your needs if you are unsure about Belkyra. Talk to us about what your needs are.
Once you make your appointment for Belkrya, you will have a few instructions to follow. Generally, you will need to eliminate alcohol and anti-inflammatory medication use for at least one week prior to your appointment. Let us know if you are taking blood thinners as well.
Upon arrival, our team will clean the area and apply a topical analgesic or administer a local anesthesia injection to the affected area. This numbs the area just enough to prevent significant pain or discomfort from the injections. A transparent grid is then set onto your chin. This works as a guide to track the application of injections.
From there, your injections will methodically work over the area applying treatment. The injections are not painful, but you will feel some pressure. Overall, your treatment will range from 15 to 30 minutes. You are able to go back to your day after treatment.
As a non-surgical treatment for double chin removal, Belkyra is customized to fit your specific needs. You may benefit from more than one treatment session, especially if there is a significant area to cover or more refined results are necessary. Most people need between 1 and 4 injections, spaced out every 4 to 6 weeks as improvements occur.
When you turn to TPS Wellness Centre for Belkyra in Toronto, you can expect to see a number of benefits. Our well-trained team can offer precision results and clear insight into what you can expect. Some of the reasons to choose Belkyra treatment over other treatments include:
This is a non-surgical double chin removal. Most other methods that target this area are surgical, requiring more invasive treatments. Belkyra treatment does not create any scars, fine lines, or areas of damage to your skin.
The process destroys fat cells. As a result, they cannot hold fat any longer, eliminating the double chin and drastically reducing the risk of new fat forming in the treatment area. This provides ongoing treatment and results.
With treatment, the fat cells in the loose skin under your jawline are eliminated. This creates a more refined jaw, one that seems more youthful and chiselled than what may be present. Many people experience significant improvement in the way they look and feel about their profile.
With jawline contouring injections from Belkyra, you could gain some self-confidence. For so many people, fatty tissue in this area can build up over time and be very hard to treat, coming back if you gain weight. With Belkyra, that does not happen. You get the beautiful look you desire.
Recovering from Belkyra is rather straightforward for many people. During your consultation, our team will discuss any potential side effects and complications, and what to do if you experience them.
The most common side effect of Belkyra is swelling in the treatment area. Many people also have some redness to the skin for a few days. This is your body’s natural reaction and should improve within a few days. Other potential side effects include pain, bruising, and numbness in the treatment area.
Treatment will require limited exposure of the skin to the sun. We will provide you with recommendations on how to care for your skin in the days after treatment. However, most people are able to go back to their daily activities within a day or so.
In rare situations, individuals may face temporary nerve damage, infection, tissue damage, difficulty with swallowing, and, very rarely, necrosis.
Belkyra treatment cost will range widely based on the injections and treatment area. You can expect costs to range from $600 to $800 per vial, with most treatments requiring one or two vials.
Various factors can contribute to the Belkyra cost, including the number of treatments you need, the coverage area, and the overall additional treatment or procedures you may decide to have.
When you come in for a consultation with our legal team, we will provide you with a clear indication of what your costs will be. A personalized quote is just that – a quote. You can decide to move forward or not, depending on your needs.
Because Belkyra treatment is a cosmetic procedure, it is not typically covered by health insurance. It is wise to make sure you know what your health insurance coverage includes for complications from cosmetic procedures.

Belkyra destroys fat cells. Those fat cells can no longer store fat in them, making this a permanent procedure. If you gain weight, you could see remaining fat cells in the area expand, though.
Most people see swelling begin to reduce in a day or so. If the Belkyra swelling lasts longer than this, we recommend contacting us for a consultation and follow-up.
The injections are not painful, thanks to the use of topical and other treatments we offer.
It is not Health Canada-approved for any other area besides under the chin. However, it may be used off-label in the bra line area, thighs, knees, and abdomen.
With Belkyra, the fat cells are targeted and destroyed over a period of a few weeks, unlike liposuction, which removes the fat cells through a surgical procedure immediately. Belkyra is far less invasive.
Most people begin to see results from Belkyra within 4 to 6 weeks. You may need a bit more time to see the final results after several treatments.
Belkyra is an alternative to more invasive neck surgeries and lifts. There are other treatments that could offer some support to improving the neckline, including CoolSculpting and radio frequency treatment, though they have very different results.
