KYBELLA (deoxycholic acid) injection 10 mg/mL
Indication
Kybella injection is indicated for improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe convexity or fullness associated with submental fat in adults. Kybella is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment that destroys fat cells in the treatment area under the chin to improve your profile.
How Kybella Works
The active ingredients in Kybella is synthetic deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella destroy fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin. Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, so further treatment is not expected once you reach your desire aesthetic goal.
What To Expect With Kybella
Before starting your treatment, our healthcare provider will examine the area under and around your chin to determine if Kybella is right for you. Then, he will tailor your treatment to the amount of fat under the chin and your aesthetic goals.
How Is Kybella Administered?
Treatment can only be administered by a Kybella trained healthcare provider. At each treatment, you will receive multiples small injections under your chin, and the injection process takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes. The exact number of injections will depend on the amount of fat you have under your chin and your desired profile.
How Many Kybella Treatment Sessions Will I Need?
Since everyone’s chin profile is different, the number of treatments varies from patient to patient. Our healthcare expert will help determine how many treatment sessions you need based on the amount and distribution of your submental fat and your personal treatment goals. Each Kybella treatment session is given at least 1 month apart, and you should not receive more than 6 treatments.
