What is KYBELLA®?
KYBELLA® is the first and only FDA-approved injectable treatment that reduces the appearance of double chin (submental fullness) by destroying fat cells under the jawline and neck, offering a non-surgical solution to enhance your profile.
How does KYBELLA® work?
KYBELLA® contains a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, KYBELLA® destroys fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness.
Who is a good candidate for KYBELLA®?
Good candidates are adults who are unhappy with the fat beneath their chin, feeling it makes them look older or heavier than they are, and who wish to avoid surgery. It's ideal for those seeking a non-invasive treatment for their double chin.
What are the benefits of KYBELLA®?
KYBELLA® offers a non-surgical alternative to liposuction or facelifts for eliminating the double chin. Benefits include a more contoured neck and jawline, improved appearance, and increased confidence without the downtime associated with surgery.
How is KYBELLA® administered?
During your KYBELLA® session, you will receive a series of small injections directly beneath your chin. This process is relatively quick, lasting about 15 minutes. The total number of injections you receive will be tailored to match the volume of fat present under your chin and to align with your goals for your chin's appearance.
Are there any side effects?
Common side effects include swelling, bruising, pain, numbness, redness, and areas of hardness in the treatment area. These are typically temporary and resolve on their own.
