Kybella
Kybella
Kybella is a double chin reduction treatment that improves the appearance of submental fat. Double chins are often hereditary, storing excess water and fat in the chin area, but can also result from aging or weight gain. This injectable is administered into the fat beneath the chin giving you a slim and firm appearance. Kybella is versatile because it can also be used in areas such as the armpits, bra line bulge, love handles, or abdomen. Diminish moderate to severe accumulated fat cells quickly and safely.
The advantages of Kybella include:
- More youthful appearance
- Customized treatments
- Safe, effective, & nonsurgical
- Permanent results
Science
Kybella uses deoxycholic acid (a naturally-occurring chemical in your body) to destroy the fat cells in your double chin. Kybella is formulated with a synthetic version of deoxycholic acid that treats fat cells permanently once injected into the targeted area. The solution reduces these fat cells, which are flushed out of your body gradually. In a clinical trial, 82.4% of patients reported significantly improved satisfaction with their appearance. A perk worth mentioning is that when these fat cells are treated, they can’t reproduce. Once you accomplish your aesthetic goal, no further sessions are necessary.

FAQs
Who Is a Good Candidate for Kybella?
Kybella is perfect for those aiming to lessen moderate to severe under-chin fat, or “double chin.” It’s best for healthy individuals over 18 who are not pregnant or breastfeeding, prefer a non-surgical solution, and have a stable weight, as weight changes can impact the results.
When Will I See Results After a Kybella Treatment?
Kybella results generally appear after 2 to 4 sessions, spaced a month apart, with visible chin contour improvements often seen within 4 to 6 weeks. However, individual results and the number of required sessions can vary.
How Long Do Kybella Results Last?
Kybella provides long-lasting benefits as the destroyed fat cells do not regenerate. The reduction in under-chin fullness from Kybella is typically permanent with a steady weight, and maintaining it through routine exercise and a balanced diet can help sustain the results.
Is There Any Downtime or Side Effects Associated with Kybella?
Kybella is a minimally invasive treatment with minimal downtime, allowing clients to resume activities quickly. Side effects like swelling and bruising are common but typically subside within a week or two.
What Should I Do Before and After Kybella Treatment?
Before Kybella treatment, avoid bruising-risk medications like aspirin or ibuprofen, stay hydrated, and inform your provider of any health conditions or medications. After Kybella, use ice to minimize swelling and discomfort, refrain from intense exercise for a few days, and follow your healthcare professional’s aftercare guidelines.
What Can I Expect During the Kybella Treatment?
Kybella treatment involves administering small injections into the under-chin fat, typically completed in 15 to 20 minutes. You may feel a slight burning or stinging, but the area can be numbed to minimize discomfort.
