Bothered by extra fullness beneath your chin? Sometimes, even with diet or exercise, the unwanted fullness beneath your chin may not go away.  Board certified and top cosmetic dermatologist, Dr. Oscar Hevia, performs the new FDA-approved Kybella, to diminish your double chin.

When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella permanently destroys fat cells. Your body’s natural metabolism then processes the fat cleared from the treatment area. Once the fat cells are gone, you’re left with a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin. Results can be noticed with as little as one treatment with minimal downtime.

How Does It Work?

Once you’ve consulted with Dr. Hevia, our expert team will help you schedule your procedure.

The surgery itself consists of four phases: surgical preparation, numbing, suction, and post-surgical care.

Surgical preparation includes photography and a detailed review of the areas that will be treated during the procedure. Dr. Hevia will mark your skin with the specific areas and contours that he will be focusing on.

During the numbing phase, lidocaine will be injected directly into the area that will be treated. You’ll be awake and comfortable, having conversations with your surgical team throughout the procedure.

During the virtually pain-free suction phase, Dr. Hevia will suction out fat from the designated areas.

Finally, your surgical team will apply your post-surgical dressings and garments once Dr. Hevia has completed the procedure. You will receive a detailed plan for your post-treatment home care before being discharged. Most patients can resume their regular activities after just a couple of days, and can return to the gym in just 2 weeks!

Laser hair removal Miami clients welcome relief from shaving and waxing. Everyone has that one area of hair they wish they didn’t have to deal with, and laser hair removal is a safe and effective treatment which not only removes unwanted hair, but helps prevent it from coming back. Laser hair removal has become one of the most sought-after cosmetic treatments in the world because of its high rate of client satisfaction and its minimal risk of side effects.

The most common procedure in Miami cosmetic dermatology uses an intense beam of light to destroy hair follicles, helping to prevent unwanted hair growth. This reduces the density, growth, and coarseness of unwanted hair and helps reduce the need to shave or wax those trouble areas. This treatment usually isn’t a “magic bullet;” typically, three to five treatments are required to achieve optimal results, but these treatments don’t require needles or anesthesia.

One of the most frequently-asked questions is, “Will this hurt?” The honest answer is, “Slightly.” Most patients report that the feeling of the laser removal is similar to the slight stinging one experiences when getting snapped with a rubber band.

Miami cosmetic dermatology exists for one reason: To help keep your skin looking and feeling its best for years to come. Laser hair removal is only one of the tools at their disposal. As with any other procedure, make sure the person performing the laser hair removal is professionally trained and certified. There are a lot of rip-off artists out there who are more than willing to take advantage of unwary clients. Always make sure the person performing your procedure is a licensed doctor, to prevent unfortunate and costly complications later.
