What is Kybella?
KYBELLA® is the first injectable to be FDA-approved to address one of the most common aesthetic problems that people face — excess chin fat. Clinically referred to as submental fullness, this fat can be incredibly difficult to get rid of through natural means. In the past, individuals had to undergo painful, surgical procedures to eliminate submental fat. With KYBELLA®, solving this aesthetic frustration is as easy as a simple series of injections.
How does it work?
The active ingredient 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® destroys 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 desired aesthetic goal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Any individual, male or female, seeking to address submental fullness can be considered a potential candidate for a KYBELLA® treatment. This non-surgical solution is suitable for those over the age of 18 and in good health, catering to individuals of diverse skin types and ethnicities.
To initiate the process, prospective patients are required to schedule a consultation at Youthtopia Med Spa. During this session, our seasoned treatment providers will assess your eligibility and determine if a KYBELLA® treatment aligns with your specific needs.
Treatment can only be administered by a KYBELLA®-trained healthcare specialist. At each treatment, you will receive multiple small injections under your chin, and the injection process takes about 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.
Following a KYBELLA® treatment, patients don’t experience the same extensive downtime associated with more invasive surgical procedures typically used to address chin fat. However, side effects like bruising, numbness, redness, and itching after treatment are common. Many patients also experience a week-long period of social downtime due to the unsightly swelling of the chin that often occurs after treatment.
KYBELLA® has served as a convenient solution to excess chin fat for countless patients -- why not let it help you, too? Contact Youthtopia Med Spa to learn more about this exciting product or to schedule a consultation appointment to see if you qualify for treatment.
