Goodbye Double Chin - Hello Kybella!

Goodbye Double Chin!

Have you noticed an unwanted second chin taking away the focus from your beautiful face? Is the waddle in your selfies and pictures getting you down? Say good riddance to that awful double chin and hello to the neck you can’t wait to show off! Kybella is the first and ONLY FDA approved for improvement in the appearance of moderated to severe fullness associated with submental (area beneath the chin) fat in adults.

What is Kybella?

The active ingredient in this treatment is deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. Kybella is administered by a trained physician who injects the product under a patients chin to destroy fat cells, improving appearance of the chin area. Submental fullness (double chin) is a common yet undertreated facial aesthetic condition. Both men and women can benefit from Kybella as submental fullness can be from aging, weight gain or genetics.Often times the double chin area is resistant to diet and exercise alone which is why Kybella is made to destroy the fat cell, getting rid of it for good. Other fat reduction or removal methods may shrink the fat cells or cause a temporary reduction in the jawline area unlike this treatment. In a 2015 study done by the ASDS (American Society for Dermatologic Surgery) 67% of people are just as bothered by their double chin as they are by their fine lines and wrinkles.

What to Expect During Treatment

Having a consultation with our expert injector before your Kybella treatment is recommended.
