Kybella FAQ
Kybella is an FDA approved injectable that breaks down submental fat under the chin to help create a more sculpted jawline.
Yes. Clinical studies and patient experience consistently show reduction of excess fat beneath the chin after a series of treatments. Individual results may vary.
Patients typically notice a slimmer profile, improved chin definition, and a more contoured lower face. Your provider will review realistic expectations during your visit.
Many individuals see meaningful change within two to four sessions, though some may need up to six for optimal refinement. Treatment plans are customized to each patient.
Once the fat cells are destroyed, they do not return. This supports long lasting improvement as long as weight remains stable.
Kybella has been extensively studied in clinical trials and is FDA approved. Temporary swelling or bruising is normal and resolves quickly.
A typical appointment can be completed in just a few minutes. Most patients return to normal activities the same day.
Any injection can result in bruising which lasts a few days. Most patients do experience swelling in the treated area that also can last 3-7 days. At Cosmetic Laser Dermatology we often combine the Kybella injection with a mild corticosteroid (Triamcinalone) to minimize post-treatment swelling.
Kybella is ideal for men and women with excess submental fat. If loose skin is the primary concern, alternative treatments like ThermiSculpt³, Ultherapy®, Sofwave®, or Thermage FLX® may be recommended to address both fat and skin laxity.
For comprehensive jawline rejuvenation, Kybella can be combined with skin tightening treatments like ThermiSculpt³, Ultherapy, Sofwave, or Thermage. Many patients also benefit from combining Kybella with dermal fillers to enhance chin projection and neuromodulators like Botox® Cosmetic to address neckbands for a complete lower face transformation.
