If you have consolidated fat deposits with fullness under the chin, you are a good candidate for Kybella. This treatment doesn’t address sagging or loose skin by itself, although it does help skin in the area to tighten after fat is removed. You will receive a screening before the procedure to make sure that Kybella is the right choice to improve the profile and contour of your neck and jaw.
After Kybella, the neck skin tends to lift and tighten as it heals; this means that you won’t have to worry about sagging skin in the area after the fat deposits have dissolved.
When you come in for your Kybella appointment, you will receive a treatment recommendation, including the number of treatments needed to best achieve your desired appearance and profile.
When a patient comes in for a Kybella treatment, they will receive multiple expertly placed injections in a single procedure. We usually recommend about three to four total treatment sessions, each spaced one month apart, for the best results. In general, patients notice improved tightness and contouring as the treatment continues. Each in-office treatment is scheduled for only one hour and can easily fit in as part of your day.
Kybella permanently dissolves fat. It is not a temporary procedure that needs to be repeated down the line; instead, it is a permanent solution to a double chin. There is no surgery involved, no incisions and no stitches.
Kybella’s safety and effectiveness were firmly established in multiple large studies involving over 1,000 patients. Those who received Kybella saw more frequent reductions in fat and an improvement in the appearance of the jawline. In fact, 79 percent of people treated with Kybella were satisfied with the appearance of their chin and neck following the procedure. Patients reported feeling younger and happier and shedding feelings of embarrassment or self-consciousness. Kybella is an FDA-approved treatment that is proven to work safely.
There could be rare side effects from Kybella, including a nerve injury in the jaw that could cause difficulty swallowing or muscle weakness. However, the more common side effects are generally temporary and include swelling, bruising, numbness, redness or pain in the injection site. Only small amounts of fat are dissolved with this treatment, directly where the injections are applied; you don’t need to worry that Kybella will affect other areas of your body.
