Kybella®

An FDA-approved injectable treatment called Kybella® targets and eliminates fat cells beneath the chin, commonly called a “double chin.” This non-surgical solution is ideal for those who are self-conscious or unhappy with the fullness under their chin and seeking a more defined profile without surgery. The active ingredient in Kybella®, synthetic deoxycholic acid, is essential for breaking down and absorbing dietary fat in the body. When injected into the submental area, it effectively breaks down fat cells, reducing the appearance of fullness. The treatment is tailored to individual needs, depending on the amount of fat and the patient’s aesthetic goals. Typically, multiple small injections are administered under the chin during each session, which lasts about 15 to 20 minutes. The number of treatments varies, with most patients requiring up to six sessions spaced at least one month apart.

For those in New York, NY and Montclair, NJ seeking a refined chin contour, SkinSplendid offers Kybella® treatments. Results are generally visible after 2 to 4 treatments and are long-lasting, as fat cells cannot store or accumulate fat after being destroyed. Post-treatment, some patients may experience swelling, bruising, or numbness under the chin. It’s essential to consult with a healthcare specialist to determine if Kybella® is the right choice for you. If you’re ready to enhance your profile and gain newfound confidence, book your appointment with SkinSplendid today and take the first step towards a more defined chin.
