KYBELLA® is a prescription injectable used in adults to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fat below the chin (submental fat). It’s designed for people who want a non-surgical approach to reducing the look of a double chin.
KYBELLA® injections are an effective and FDA-approved treatment for patients who have moderate-to-severe fat below the chin, known as submental fat. The KYBELLA® drug is a synthetic version of a bio acid that the body naturally produces. When injected into the area below the chin, KYBELLA® can successfully eliminate fat deposits by rupturing the fat cell membranes permanently. Patients benefit from a simple and non-surgical method to reduce their double-chin appearance and restore their self-confidence.
Submental fat beneath the chin is assessed and mapped to your anatomy.
Injections are placed strategically to address fat deposits under the chin.
Your body gradually processes the treated fat cells over time as part of the post-treatment response.
KYBELLA® is a quick procedure performed in the comfort of our office. As with our other facial injectable treatments, there is almost no social downtime associated with KYBELLA®. Depending on your specific needs and goals, repeated injections may be needed for optimal results.
Patients often start with two injection sessions, typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Further injections may be needed following the initial treatment. Tammy Cabrera, DNP, FNP-BC can recommend the best plan for you and help you pursue the results you’re hoping for.
KYBELLA® is intended for adults with moderate to severe fat below the chin who want a non-surgical approach to improving profile definition. During your consultation, we’ll review health history, anatomy, and aesthetic goals to confirm candidacy and map a plan.
Note: Individual results and number of sessions vary. Your provider will discuss expectations, timing, and aftercare based on your specific needs.
KYBELLA® is a prescription treatment. As with all injectables, it’s important to review medical history, candidacy, and potential side effects with a qualified provider. The official prescribing information outlines indications, contraindications, warnings, and precautions.
During consultation, we’ll discuss what is typical (like temporary swelling and tenderness) versus what would require medical follow-up—so you feel informed and confident.
