KYBELLA®

KYBELLA® is an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to reduce submental fullness - commonly known as a “double chin.” Using a naturally occurring molecule called deoxycholic acid, KYBELLA® breaks down and permanently destroys fat cells beneath the chin, resulting in a more defined, sculpted profile.

How does KYBELLA® work?

KYBELLA® targets and breaks down fat cells in the treatment area. Once destroyed, these fat cells can no longer store or accumulate fat. Over time, your body naturally processes and eliminates the treated fat, revealing a slimmer and more contoured appearance.

What areas can be treated?

KYBELLA® is primarily used to treat:

• Double chin (submental fullness) 
• Mild to moderate fat under the jawline

Benefits of KYBELLA®

• Non-surgical alternative to liposuction 
• Permanent fat reduction 
• Improved jawline definition 
• Quick, in-office treatments 
• No general anesthesia required 

What to expect at your appointment

Your provider will assess your chin and customize a treatment plan based on your goals. During the procedure:

• A series of small injections are placed under the chin 
• Treatment typically takes 15–30 minutes 
• A topical numbing agent may be used for comfort 

Most patients require a series of treatments spaced about 4–6 weeks apart for optimal results.

Recovery & Downtime

Some swelling is expected and is actually a sign that the treatment is working. You may also experience:

• Mild bruising 
• Tenderness 
• Temporary numbness 

Downtime is minimal, and most patients return to normal activities within a few days.

When will I see results?

Results develop gradually over several weeks as your body processes the treated fat. Visible improvement is typically seen after 2–4 sessions, with continued enhancement over time.

Is KYBELLA® right for you?

KYBELLA® is ideal for individuals who:

• Are bothered by fullness under the chin 
• Prefer a non-surgical solution 
• Are at or near a stable weight 

A consultation is the best way to determine if this treatment fits your goals.
