What is the KYBELLA treatment process like?

KYBELLA treatments involve multiple small injections under the chin. The area is numbed beforehand for comfort, though some patients notice temporary soreness or tenderness afterward.

How long does a KYBELLA treatment take?

A KYBELLA appointment typically takes about 15 to 20 minutes of injection time, not including the consultation and post-treatment instructions.

Are KYBELLA results permanent?

Yes. Once KYBELLA destroys fat cells in the treated area, they cannot store fat again. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle helps preserve your improved profile.

What is the downtime after KYBELLA?

Most people experience some swelling, tenderness, numbness, redness, or firmness under the chin for several days after treatment. These effects are temporary and part of the normal healing process.

How many KYBELLA treatments will I need?

Many patients see noticeable results in two to four sessions, spaced about a month apart. Depending on your goals and anatomy, you may receive up to six treatments.

How does Kybella work?

KYBELLA® uses synthetic deoxycholic acid, a molecule that naturally occurs in the body, to help break down and absorb dietary fat, permanently destroying fat cells in the treated area. Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, so further treatment is not expected once you reach your desired aesthetic goal.

Who is Kybella for?

KYBELLA® might be right for you if you’re bothered by the appearance of your double chin, you eat well and exercise, but it doesn’t help the appearance, or you don’t want to get surgery.
