Kybella Fat Dissolver
A double chin can creep into selfies even when the rest of you is trim. Kybella fixes that with science, not scalpels. The injectable contains deoxycholic acid—a bile-acid molecule your body already uses to break down dietary fat. When we place it beneath the chin, it punctures fat-cell membranes so those cells rupture and vanish for good. It’s still the only FDA-approved shot for submental fullness, and the results are permanent once the series is finished.
Key Benefits
- Permanent Fat Cell Destruction – Once the treated fat cells are gone, they never regenerate, so the contour stays sharp even if your weight fluctuates a little. WebMD
- Surgical-Level Definition, Zero Incisions – Expect a cleaner jawline without liposuction scars or general anesthesia.
- Quick Sessions – Most visits wrap in 20 minutes; you’re back to normal life right after, save for some short-term swelling. Mayo Clinic
- Customizable – We map injection points to target bra-roll puffs or jowl bulges when anatomy allows, giving you a made-to-measure dissolve. Oxford Academic
- Safety Net – Updated labeling covers rare risks like injection-site necrosis; our clinicians follow those guidelines to the letter.
Before Your Appointment
- Consult & Camera Angles – Bring side-profile photos so we can chart the exact bulge that bothers you.
- Pause Blood Thinners – Skip aspirin, ibuprofen, fish-oil, and alcohol for 48–72 hours to curb bruising.
- Neck-Wear Check – Leave turtlenecks and snug collars at home; you’ll want room for a light ice pack afterward.
- Schedule Smart – Swelling peaks at 48 hours and can linger a week, so avoid big events until day 7–10.
-
Honesty on Medical History – Thyroid surgery, scar tissue, or prior liposuction under the chin? Tell us; it changes dosing strategy.
Aftercare and What to Expect
- Marshmallow Phase – The area can puff up like a marshmallow for three to seven days; that swelling means the fat-cell walls are breaking apart. Cool packs (ten minutes on, ten off) help.
- Heat & Sweat Timeout – No hot yoga, saunas, or high-intensity workouts for 24 hours; heat widens vessels and amps swelling.
- Hands Off – Resist massaging; the drug needs to stay where we placed it.
- Series Strategy – Most clients see best results with two to four sessions spaced six weeks apart. Each round removes another slice of the fat layer until the contour clicks into place.
- Long-Term Payoff – Once fat cells are cleared, they’re gone for good. Keep your weight steady and enjoy a permanent profile upgrade.
