Love Handle Reduction Q & A

What causes love handles?

Love handles are deposits of excess fat at the side of the waistline. You don’t have to be overweight to “love handles”. And sometimes, no matter how much you exercise or diet, this stubborn fat can be a challenge to lose. Outside of weight gain, factors that cause the appearance of love handles include hormones, sleep deprivation, and age.

How do you treat love handles?

KYBELLA® is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment indicated to treat moderate to severe fat accumulation. It is a prescription medication of synthetic deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that breaks down and absorbs fat by breaking down cell membranes of dietary fat cells. When injected into the fat, it destroys fat cells to a point where they can no longer store or accumulate fat.

What happens to the fat once it is treated?

Your body’s lymphatic system eliminates the fat cells that are damaged through injectables and laser therapy. Due to permanent damage to the fat cells, repeat treatments are not necessary once you reach your desired aesthetic goal.
