Skip to content KYBELLA® is an injectable treatment that the FDA has approved to reduce the appearance of double chins. The body absorbs the fat through deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in our bodies. KYBELLA® is a man-made version of this substance. KYBELLA®’s treatment is fast, simple, and requires little to no downtime.
KYBELLA® destroys the membranes of fat-storing cells. As a result, fat can no longer be stored in them. With the body’s natural healing and elimination processes at work, fat deposits are reduced or eliminated within four to six weeks. In clinical trials conducted by the FDA, even those who gained weight after receiving KYBELLA® injectables did not experience a return of fat deposits.
KYBELLA® injections are safe for most people but check with your doctor or KYBELLA® consultant whether you would be a suitable candidate. KYBELLA® injections are only available to adults age 18 and over.

The KYBELLA® fat-dissolving treatment eliminates fat cells by destroying them, making them unable to store fat. Once absorbed into the body, it destroys the cell membrane and removes the lipids.
It takes approximately five minutes to numb the area. It usually takes between 15 and 20 minutes to complete the injection process after the numbing procedure.
It will take four to six weeks for you to notice a difference. You should see optimal results in about eight weeks after completing the recommended number of KYBELLA® treatments.
It is recommended to have two to four treatments of KYBELLA® every eight weeks. During your pre-treatment consultation, your injector will help you determine how many treatments it will take to achieve your goals.
The answer is yes! By injecting KYBELLA®, you can permanently get rid of fat cells under your chin, preventing new fat cells from accumulating.
Most patients are able to return to their normal routine the day after treatment, although the treated area swells and remains tender for a week or two post-treatment. You can cover bruising with a cover-up to camouflage swelling with a scarf or bandana.
