Kybella 

The background

Kybella is an artificial substitute for the natural molecule (deoxycholic acid) that rests in your gastrointestinal tract having the function to metabolize fat. The treatment was approved by the FDA in 2015 and was labeled as a treatment against subcutaneous fat cells that create the appearance of a double chin. 

What does it do? 

The main property of Kybella is that it permanently erases fat and lifts the skin around the treated region. The fact that Kybella succeeds in destroying fat cells, allows the skin to produce new collagen in a process known as neocollagenesis. The newly created collagen then gives the client a tighter look to the treated region.  

How much is it? 

The average cost of the fat removal treatment is $1700 per area. 

 

SculpSure

The background

SculpSure brings to the industry a light-based technology that targets unwanted fat cells in the body. This effective non-invasive fat removal treatment was the world’s first FDA-cleared body therapy to completely destroy fat excess. 

What does it do? 

Spanned over a brief 25-minute treatment session, SculpSure works by heating the targeted fat cells causing them to rupture and get permanently destroyed. The post-treatment result is overwhelmingly positive, with people reporting a generally more aesthetically-pleasing appearance.

How much is it?

To book a single ScumpSure treatment the average cost is $1500.

The background

The cryolipolysis method was approved by the FDA in 2010 and has since been renowned for successfully getting rid of undesirable fat in certain parts of the body.

What does it do?

This treatment was devised as a collaborator to diets and exercises to help people remove stubborn fat. CoolSculpting slims up the physique by freezing and completely destroying fat cells which your organism then disposes of naturally. 

How much is it?

The cost of CoolSculpting starts at $650 per treated region.

Zerona 

The background

Zerona is a low-level laser therapy (LLLT) approved by the FDA for treating the waist, thighs, and hips. The treatment is relatively quick and succeeds in removing the targeted fat cells in one region after approximately 6 sessions. 

What does it do? 

The technology is designed to emit cold laser energy into the skin tissues which is then absorbed by fat cells in the area. The process causes targeted fat cells to break and get absorbed by the organism. Ultimately the fat is removed through natural processes leaving Zerona a completely non-invasive comfortable fat removal technology.

How much is it? 

All six treatments may take out of your pocket about $1700.
