Belkyra

frequently asked questions

1. How can Belkyra treatment help me?

   Belkyra is the latest advancement in chin refinement, helping to create a smoother, more sculpted appearance around the lower face and neck. It’s ideal for those who have a layer of fat around the chin (double chin), whether through weight gain, genetics, or other factors. It can also be used elsewhere on the face and body.

2. What happens during an appointment?

   After a consultation, we’ll arrange an appointment where we can safely inject your Belkyra treatment in carefully targeted areas. A numbing cream helps to prevent any discomfort during the treatment.

3. How long does Belkyra take?

   A typical appointment could last 15-30 minutes.

4. How long do the results last?

   The results can be permanent, as long as you eat healthily, enjoy an active lifestyle, and have a stable body weight.

5. How much treatment will I need?

   Most of our patients need 2-4 sessions to achieve best results, but it’s incredible how just one treatment can make such a dramatic improvement to your appearance. Both men and women enjoy its subtle shaping and sculpting benefits, and it’s both surgery and scar-free.

6. Are there any risks related to Belkyra?

   All aesthetics treatments come with an element of risk. For Belkyra, you can expect some redness, bruising and swelling. Paracetamol can be used for any discomfort  a neck garment can help disguise any swelling. The body works quickly to dissolve the fat, so results improve usually 4-10 days.

7. What is the recovery time?

   Some swelling and bruising may be experienced, so minimal recovery time is expected.

8. Will my results look unnatural?

   Results will look natural  as treatment centres around treating fat pockets – nothing is added.

9. Can Belkyra be combined with other treatments?

   Generally speaking, we find the results of Belkyra speak for themselves. However, if you find that there is slight sagging of the skin after treatment, we can help tighten and refine the area. Dr Ejikeme will be happy to talk you through any recommendations.
