As you get older, fat can develop under your skin. This may make you look like you have a double chin and distort your features. Kybella® injections reduce excess fat to enhance the jawline and boost your self-confidence about your appearance.

How Kybella Injections Work

Kybella injections consist of a serum that helps destroy the structure of fat cells. These fat cells dissolve into the body. The facial injection treatment can be done in under an hour. It may take at least two treatments spaced six weeks apart to achieve your desired results. The maximum number of treatment sessions for Kybella is six injections over a six-month time period.

Some redness and swelling may occur after treatment that will subside over time. You should be able to resume normal activities immediately after treatment. Results are commonly noticeable after a period of 12 weeks. Your plastic surgeon may also give you special instructions and recommendations after treatment to help you achieve optimal results.

Ideal Candidates for Kybella Injections

Kybella injections are ideal for people who have moderate fat in their neck but do not have excess skin folds. Other options for weight loss such as dieting and exercise should be considered and tried before considering this cosmetic procedure. These injections do not tighten muscles or smooth skin, which may mean other cosmetic procedures may be necessary to enhance your appearance.
