Kybella

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that reduces submental fat, commonly known as a double chin. It contains deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. When injected into the area under the chin, Kybella destroys fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.

What it is:

  • Kybella is a prescription medicine containing deoxycholic acid.
  • It is injected into the area beneath the chin to reduce the appearance of a double chin.
  • It is a non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure.
  • The process results in a reduction of submental fat and improved chin and jawline definition.

What to expect:

  • Multiple treatment sessions are usually needed, spaced several weeks apart.
  • Common side effects include swelling, bruising, pain, numbness, and redness at the injection site.
  • Results are generally long-lasting
