Kybella
DIMINISH THE DOUBLE CHIN WITH A TREATMENT TAILORED TO YOU.
KYBELLA® is administered as a series of injections to the treatment area under the chin, destroying fat cells and producing gradual results. Everyone's chin profile is different, so your physician will tailor* treatment to you. The number of treatment sessions will vary based on the amount of fat under the chin and your treatment goals.

Is Kybella right for me?
-
You're bothered (unhappy, self-conscious, embarrassed) by fat under the chin, also known as submental fullness
-
You feel the condition makes you look older or heavier than you actually are
-
You don't want to have surgery
-
You eat well and exercise, but submental fullness does not go away
How does Kybella work?
The active ingredient in KYBELLA® is synthetic deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid is 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 under the chin. Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, so further treatment is not expected once you reach your desired aesthetic goal.
What to expect with Kybella?
Before starting treatment, your providers will examine the area under and around your chin to determine if KYBELLA® is right for you. Then, we will tailor your treatment to the amount of fat under the chin and your aesthetic goals.
​
How is Kybella administered?
Treatment can only be administered by a KYBELLA®-trained professional. We have three trained professionals, two Registered Nurses, and one Nurse Practioner. At each treatment, you will receive multiple small injections under your chin, and the injection process takes about 30 minutes. The exact number of injections will depend on the amount of fat you have under your chin and your desired profile. That can be discussed with our providers at a consultation appointment.
How many Kybella sessions will I need?
Since everyone's chin profile is different, the number of treatments varies from patient to patient. We will help determine how many treatment sessions you need to be based on the amount and distribution of your submental fat and your personal treatment goals.
Each KYBELLA® treatment session is given at least 1 month apart, and you should not receive more than 6 treatments.
