What is Kybella and how does it work What is Kybella and how does it work?

Kybella is an injectable treatment specifically designed to reduce submental fullness, commonly known as a double chin. It works by using deoxycholic acid, which breaks down and absorbs fat cells. Once these fat cells are destroyed, they cannot store or accumulate fat again, leading to a more contoured and defined chin and jawline.

How many Kybella treatments will I need?

The number of Kybella treatments required varies from person to person, depending on the amount of fat under the chin and the desired results. Most patients need between 2 to 4 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. Dr. Munib will assess your specific needs and develop a personalized treatment plan during your consultation.

Is Kybella treatment painful?

Kybella treatments are generally well-tolerated, but some patients may experience mild discomfort during the injections. To ensure your comfort, a topical numbing agent can be applied before the procedure. After the treatment, you may experience some swelling, bruising, or redness, which typically subsides within a few days.

How long do the results of Kybella last?

The results of Kybella are long-lasting because the treated fat cells are permanently destroyed. Once you achieve your desired aesthetic, additional treatments are not usually necessary. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help preserve your results.

What is the recovery time after Kybella treatment?

Recovery time after Kybella treatment is minimal. Most patients experience swelling and bruising for a few days post-treatment, but these side effects are temporary. You can typically resume your normal activities immediately after the procedure, although it’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise for a couple of days.

Are there any side effects of Kybella?

Common side effects of Kybella include swelling, bruising, redness, and tenderness at the injection site. These effects are usually mild and resolve on their own within a few days. Dr. Munib will provide detailed aftercare instructions to help minimize any discomfort.

Is Kybella suitable for everyone?

Kybella is suitable for most individuals who are bothered by excess fat under the chin. However, a thorough consultation with Dr. Munib is necessary to determine if Kybella is the right option for you. She will evaluate your medical history, skin condition, and aesthetic goals to ensure you receive the best possible treatment.

Our Double Chin Treatment Options

One of our most popular treatments for reducing a double chin is Kybella, an FDA-approved injectable that targets and dissolves fat cells under the chin. Kybella is composed 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, preventing them from storing or accumulating fat in the future.

In addition to Kybella, we offer personalized treatment plans that may include other non-invasive methods which may be suited for you and the options can be discussed during your visit based on individual needs.
