Kybella®: Say Goodbye to Chin Fat (Double Chin)
Achieve a more defined and sculpted jawline with Kybella®, the first and only FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to eliminate stubborn fat beneath the chin. Kybella® is a non-surgical solution for submental fullness (commonly referred to as a “double chin”), helping you achieve a slimmer, more youthful profile without surgery or downtime.
What Is Kybella®?
Kybella® is a revolutionary injectable treatment that contains deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. When injected into the submental area (beneath the chin), Kybella® permanently destroys fat cells, resulting in a slimmer and more defined appearance.

- Permanent Results: Once fat cells are destroyed, they cannot regenerate.
- Quick Treatment: Sessions typically take 15-30 minutes.
- Minimal Downtime: Return to your daily activities shortly after treatment.
- Customizable: Treatments are tailored to your unique anatomy and goals.
