Kybella®
A double chin can make it hard to feel confident in pictures or certain outfits. Achieve a sculpted, defined look without surgery using our most unique injectable options.
What is Kybella?
Kybella® is an injectable treatment made with deoxycholic acid, a bile acid found in the metabolic system that is responsible for breaking down fat. When injected under the chin, it can melt submental fat, or a double chin, and achieve a more contoured appearance to the jawline.
A double chin can be the result of many factors like weight gain or loss, or even genetics. For patients who have a double chin and are otherwise at a healthy, stable weight, it can be frustrating when typical diet and exercise don’t produce results. Liposuction has traditionally been the most effective solution for a double chin, but Kybella is a groundbreaking non-surgical treatment that produces transformative results and removes the need for incisions or downtime.
What Can Kybella Treat?
- Double chin
- Weak jawline
- Jowls
Kybella Aftercare Steps
Kybella is typically performed using a topical anesthetic, so you can anticipate some numbness in the area immediately after your treatment session. After Kybella injections, you can also expect some tenderness and swelling under your chin. It can be helpful to take ibuprofen and ice the area (with a protected ice pack) for 15 minutes at a time to reduce inflammation. Make sure to avoid touching, rubbing, or massaging the treatment area and use only a gentle, unscented cleanser and moisturizer when washing your face. You should avoid makeup for at least 24 hours and resume your normal skincare regimen with any active ingredients only after 1 week. It’s also important to avoid laying down for several hours after treatment since this can exacerbate swelling.
It’s perfectly normal to see swelling for 2-3 weeks after each treatment, but you’ll begin to see results emerge within a few months of your session. Most patients require a package of treatments spaced about 1 month apart, and our experienced team can help you creat the ideal treatment approach for you and your goals.
How Long Does Kybella Last?
One of the biggest perks of Kybella is that it can produce permanent results. With a complete treatment package by our expert injectors, you can enjoy a slimmer jawline for many years.
