Kybella

Permanently dissolve double chin fat

About This Treatment

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable that permanently destroys fat cells under the chin. Using synthetic deoxycholic acid — a naturally occurring molecule that aids in fat absorption — Kybella eliminates submental fullness without surgery.

Benefits

Permanent fat cell destruction, no surgery or downtime, defined jawline and profile, FDA-approved and clinically proven

Ideal For

Anyone with moderate to severe submental fullness (double chin) who wants a non-surgical solution

Single Treatment Area

Targeted treatment for under-chin fat

Treatment Series

Typically 2–4 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart

How To Prepare

Avoid blood thinners and anti-inflammatories for 7 days. Your provider will assess the area under your chin and mark injection points. If you have significant skin laxity, your provider may recommend alternative treatments.

What To Expect During Treatment

Your provider will mark a grid of injection points under your chin and apply numbing cream or ice. Kybella is injected through a series of small injections across the treatment area. The procedure takes 15–20 minutes. You may feel a burning or stinging sensation during injection, which subsides quickly.

What To Expect After Treatment

Significant swelling under the chin is expected and normal — this is the treatment working. Swelling peaks at 2–3 days and gradually resolves over 2–4 weeks. Bruising, numbness, and firmness are also common. Most patients need 2–4 treatment sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Results are permanent once fat cells are destroyed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this treatment help with?

Kybella helps reduce submental fullness, commonly known as a double chin, by targeting and breaking down unwanted fat beneath the chin. Treatment is designed to improve jawline definition and create a more contoured appearance.

Is there any downtime or recovery?

Kybella treatments involve minimal downtime, though temporary swelling is common following treatment. Patients may also experience redness, tenderness, bruising, numbness, or firmness in the treatment area, which typically improves over time.

When will I see results, and how long do they last?

Results develop gradually as the body naturally processes and eliminates treated fat cells over several weeks. A series of treatments is often recommended for optimal results, and once the fat cells are removed, results can be long-lasting with a stable weight.
