Kybella®
A treatment for one specific problem: submental fullness, the fullness under the chin that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise. Kybella dissolves it. No surgery, no incisions.
What It Is
Kybella® is an injectable treatment using deoxycholic acid, a substance the body already produces to break down dietary fat. Injected under the chin, it destroys fat cells on contact. Once those cells are gone, they don’t come back.
Who It's For
Kybella is built for moderate to severe fullness under the chin in patients who are close to their goal weight but carry stubborn fat in that one area. It is not a weight-loss treatment and it is not the right tool for loose skin without underlying fullness, we’ll tell you honestly if that’s the case for you.
Areas We Treat
- Submental area (under the chin)
How a Visit Unfolds
- A short consultation to confirm you're a candidate and map the injection sites.
- Treatment itself takes about 15–20 minutes.
- Expect swelling, and often some numbness or firmness, for one to two weeks after each session.
- Most patients need two to four sessions, spaced at least a month apart, for full results.
Honest Expectations
Kybella works gradually. Visible improvement typically starts a few weeks after a session, with full results after the recommended series. Swelling in the days after treatment can look more dramatic than the final result, that’s normal and it settles.
Common Questions
Is it painful?
Most patients describe pressure and a cold or burning sensation during injection, brief and manageable. We use numbing beforehand.
How long do results last?
Once treated fat cells are destroyed, they’re gone. As long as weight stays stable, results are considered permanent.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients see their best result after two to four sessions. We’ll give you a realistic number after assessing your chin at consultation, not before.
