Kybella® is the first FDA-approved injectable treatment that permanently reduces submental fullness — commonly known as a “double chin.” Excess fat under the chin area can be influenced by several factors such as aging, genetics and weight gain. Submental fullness is often resistant to diet and exercise alone, making it a common cosmetic concern treatable with Kybella.
Yes, fat cells destroyed do not return. However, the remaining fat cells can get bigger if an individual regains weight.
Visible improvement after 1–2 sessions; optimal results after full series.
Bruising and swelling can be expected for several days following treatment.
Patients with significant submental fullness or a thick neck, and those with excessive skin laxity may not achieve optimal results.
After addressing the double chin with Kybella, tissue tightening treatments such as Sofwave can be used to address skin laxity, and dermal fillers can be used to further define the chin and jawline.
