KYBELLA

Say goodbye to that double chin!

Kybella® is the first and only FDA-approved non-surgical treatment of sub mental fat, also known as the “double chin.” This common facial aesthetic concern can be influenced by several factors such as aging, genetics and weight gain, and is often resistant to diet and exercise alone. A Kybella® double chin treatment takes just 15 minutes and provides long lasting results, with minimal downtime!

HOW IT WORKS

During a Kybella® treatment, your VI provider will perform a series of injections in the area of your double chin. 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. When injected into the fat beneath your chin, Kybella® causes the destruction of fat cells. Once destroyed, those cells cannot store or accumulate fat.

Patients experience visible results after two to four treatments. Final results are expected up to three months after the last Kybella® treatment.

A local anesthetic may be injected prior to treatment to ensure the most comfortable experience for our patients. Ice packs will be applied after treatment to minimize swelling.
