Fat Removal and Skin Tightening for Neck and Jowls in Paramus, NJ
Looking for a non-surgical option to rejuvenate your neck? At BAXT CosMedical® our Board Certified Dermatologists can help both men and women remove excess fat from under their chin and tighten loose, sagging skin without surgery!
Dr. Rebecca Baxt and Dr. Saida Baxt are pleased to offer patients two exciting non-invasive procedures to treat a sagging neck… Kybella® and Ultherapy®.
KYBELLA®– THE INJECTIBLE NECK CONTOURING PROCEDURE
Men and women who wish to reduce fat deposits below their chin, also known as a “double chin,” have a new non-surgical option to improve their profile. Kybella® is a 15 to 20 minute in office procedure that is customized by Dr. Rebecca Baxt or Dr. Saida Baxt to help you achieve your neck renewal goals.* Kybella® is a safe and effective injectable medication that contains and FDA-approved medicine that removes moderate amounts of fat below your chin.
How Does Kybella® Work?
Kybella® destroys fat cells when skillfully and precisely injected into the fat, called submental fat beneath your chin. Kybella® contains the FDA-approved active ingredient, deoxycholic acid which is a naturally occurring molecule in your body. This molecule aids your body in breaking down and removing excess fat.
How Many Kybella® Treatments Will I Need?
Many patients treated with Kybella® experience visible contouring of their chin/neck profile in 2 to 4 treatments.* Once the aesthetic goal is achieved, re-treatment is not expected as Kybella® causes the destruction of fat cells, these fat cells are removed and cannot store or accumulate any new fat.
Does Kybella® Have Any Side Effects and what is the Expected Downtime?
The most common side effects of Kybella® include swelling, bruising, pain, numbness, redness, and areas of firmness in the treated areas. For most patients, downtime is minimal and occurred most commonly after the first treatment session due to swelling and redness.*
When scheduling your treatments, please advise us of any social plans and work commitments you have. Learn more about Kybella®.
ULTHERAPY® SKIN TIGHTENING
Ultherapy® uses ultrasound energy to lift and tighten skin on the face and neck. Ultherapy® treatments work on the deep layers of the neck area by heating the tissue to increase collagen production.
Ultherapy® is the only non-invasive procedure that is FDA-cleared to lift skin on the neck, chin and brow. If you are looking for a small lifting, subtle, natural-looking results and an alternative to surgery, Ultherapy® may be the solution you have been looking for.

Platysmaplasty is used to treat a sagging neck, also known as a turkey neck. This procedure will tighten the neck muscle (platysma) which helps to lessen the sagging often seen in the neck area. A Neck Lift / Lower Facelift will remove fat from under the chin and tighten loose, sagging skin & muscles of the neck. This procedure is similar to the Tissue Glue Facelift, but incisions are smaller.
Liposuction of the Neck and Jowls
Liposuction of the Neck & Jowls can remove excess fat of the neck and jowls. Liposuction of the neck and jowl areas is recommended for younger patients who have fairly good skin elasticity and no prominent neck band. For those patients with neck bands BOTOX® injections can be used to relax the troublesome neck bands.
