Kybella
Kybella is an injectable treatment that dissolves excess fat under the chin, or submental fullness that is otherwise referred to as a double chin. It contours and improves the profile and reveals a smooth jawline.
Kybella is non-surgical and may be the right treatment if submental fullness is a concern. Most patients experience visible results after two to four treatments and the fat cells are destroyed permanently.
How it works
Kybella is a synthetic deoxycholic acid that is 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, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness. Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat – so further treatment is not necessary.
