The appearance of a double chin or fullness below the jawline is a common cosmetic concern that many women and men struggle with. Prior to Kybella™, facial liposuction techniques or the excision of fat tissue during neck lift surgery were the only options for removing this type of stubborn, localized fat. Now, Kybella™ is frequently recommended as an effective way to reduce a mild to moderate amount of excess fat that doesn’t respond to traditional weight loss methods.

Patients with good skin elasticity and whose concerns are not caused by excess skin are often determined to be candidates for customized Kybella™ treatments. With this injectable medication, we can eliminate moderate to severe levels of bulging skin and stubborn fat deposits below the chin, helping produce a better contoured, more lifted, and noticeably more attractive appearance.

WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS?

The fat is dissolved within 10-15 minutes of injection. However, an inflammatory response is induced that causes swelling and takes a 3-4 weeks to subside. Therefore, you will not see your final result for approximately 4 weeks following your injection.

ARE THE RESULTS PERMANENT?

The short answer is yes. However, if you gain weight, some of the submental fat can return. During your consultation, we will assess your neck and chin, discuss treatment options and results, and answer any questions you may have.

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME?

There can be some bruising associated with Kybella treatments, similar to other injectables, that can last up to a week. You are free to apply concealer to cover bruises the very next day. The swelling typically lasts typically 3-4 days, and full result is visible in about 28 days.
