Kybella® (deoxycholic acid) is an FDA-approved injectable treatment for moderate to severe fullness associated with submental fat in adults. It works by targeting fat cells beneath the chin, which are then gradually processed by the body.
Kybella provides a nonsurgical option for reducing a double chin without incisions or surgical fat removal.
Your dermatologist will first evaluate your chin and neck and determine the appropriate treatment area. Kybella is then administered through a series of small injections into the submental fat.
Some patients may need multiple treatment sessions. Treatments are generally spaced at least one month apart, depending on individual needs and response.
Swelling is common after Kybella injections and may be accompanied by bruising, redness, tenderness, firmness, pain, or numbness. Recovery varies from patient to patient.
Your dermatologist will provide specific aftercare instructions based on your treatment.
Kybella may be appropriate for adults who have unwanted fullness beneath the chin and prefer a nonsurgical treatment option.
It may be less suitable when loose skin or other anatomical factors are the primary cause of a less-defined jawline. A consultation can determine whether Kybella is appropriate for you.
