Kybella®
Kybella® is the first and only FDA–approved injectable treatment to improve the appearance of moderate to severe fat beneath the chin* by physically destroying fat cells.
How Does Kybella® Work?
When injected into the fat beneath your chin, KYBELLA® destroys fat cells. Once destroyed, those cells cannot store or accumulate fat.
The active ingredient in KYBELLA® is deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat.
Fat cleared from the treatment area is processed through your body’s natural metabolism.
Kybella® May Be Right For You if:
- You’re bothered by fat under the chin, also known as submental fullness.
- You don’t want surgery.
- You feel the confition makes you look older or heavier than you actually are
- You eat well and exercise, but submental fullness does not go away
How is Kybella® Administered?
KYBELLA® is given during an in-office visit. The injection process may take 15 to 20 minutes. Your healthcare provider will give you a series of injections into the fat under your chin at each treatment session.
What Can I Expect After My Treatment Session?
