Belkyra® Double Chin Treatment Ottawa

What is Belkyra?

Belkyra®  which is approved by Health Canada, is an injectable drug that can reduce submental fat (double  chin) and redefine your jawline.

Belkyra®  consists of a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid which is a naturally occurring substance in our bodies. When injected into a targeted area, it destroys fat cell membranes, allowing the fat inside to be released and naturally eliminated from the body.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Am I a candidate for Belkyra?

Prior to treatment a private consultation with Dr. Fisher will be scheduled to discuss your medical history, and ensure that Belkyra is right for you. 

BELKYRA treatment is limited to healthy individuals expected to undergo a normal healing response. You should not be pregnant or breastfeeding.

What are the number of Sessions Required?

Usually 2 - 6 sessions are required for optimal results

What is the spacing Between Sessions?

Normally 6 Weeks apart

What is the length of each Session?

Sessions usually take about 30 -45 Minutes

What is the cost?

From $600-$1,200 per treatment based on the severity of your double chin

Is there any downtime?

While this is a non-invasive procedure and you can return to your daily activities immediately afterwards, you may experience some redness, bruising and swelling. We suggest that you schedule your treatment near the end of the week.

Are there any side effects?

In the clinical trials, the most commonly reported side effects of BELKYRA were in the treatment area and included swelling, bruising, low-grade pain, numbness, redness, tingling or itchiness, a sensation of warmth, or hardness. Dr Fisher will review in detail with you during your consultation.

What can I expect during my treatment?

When you arrive for your treatment, we'll take a few "before" photos so you'll be able to see the difference once the BELKYRA® has had a chance to do its job.

Next, we'll apply  a topical analgesic, to make your  treatment more comfortable. A special grid is applied to the treatment area. These grid points guide precise dosing.  Most patients describe minimal or no discomfort. An ice pack applied to the treatment site is  sufficient to minimize some expected burning discomfort.
